A spectacular property steps away from the beach that should be on everyone’s shortlist. But I appreciate it most about this hotel is that it was quiet. No DJ with music blasting all day. This is a resort for mature folks who are looking for relaxation and tranquility. Combine with the incredible spa, fitness, and restaurants it is the ultimate wellness retreat.

Front desk is friendly and approachable. Management is very good. Issues were dealt with quickly. Spa concierge - not helpful at all. Massage totally not worth it. Also, they will give you a complimentary welcome drink at their bar but it doesn’t gives you an amount nor do they tell you that certain drinks will not be covered. It’s a surprise at the end they you end up having to pay for it. It should tell you what is covered or the amount.
