Our favorite part about our stay was actually where we were at. We chose the affordable cabins next to Carabelas restaurant and they were amazing. The cabins were so surrounded by nature and felt completely private away from everyone else.

The property is deceiving. The agency promotes the property that is with the beachfront but it is NOT. You have to drive or use the bus to get to the beach. The rooms are far away from the beach. You have to sell the business with transparency. If I did not rent the car, it was going tobe a nightmare. In addition. the road to get there is terrible. Disgusting I would say. You can do better. The property is huge and we had an amazing time by the beach.

I'm rating my stay with 4 stars instead of 5 because the place is way too overestimated, too pricey. Food prices are ridiculous. Drinks prices in the pool are way too high. Other than that, the place is nice and the service is good enough to forget about the prices... until you go for lunch...

The property is a compound. It’s isolated from the next towns and the public transportation to leave the property was not reliable. The prices inside the resort were outrageous!
