The staff was very friendly and welcoming. The hotel was clean and the pool was so nice. The only negatives about the hotel was the pillows, they were very flat and only had three for two people. When I asked for more they had none. I had to sleep with my pillow folded in half. Also, the bed was terrible! If those two things can be worked on this hotel would be fantastic!!! The location is AMAZING!!!! The food in the restaurant was really good. I really wish the beds and pillow were better.

We got a suite (bedroom, living room, nice big bathroom, small kitchen). last minute and only paid $1150.00 USD for 7 nights. A little nervous because some of the reviews were all over the place. But, We were in walking distance to everywhere we needed to go. Great Restaurants and the beautiful beach right around the corner. Housekeeping checked on us daily. Our place was so clean and nice. AC ice cold! Zero complaints. We would definitely stay there again.
