The room was clean, the staff was great. The bigger pool was closed and too many children in the pool area. So if you’re traveling as a couple I wouldn’t recommend, they were in the gym and running down the halls. (Not the hotels fault). Super noisy with construction, people so not as peaceful as would have wanted.

The staff was not very welcoming or courteous. They gave us a room with double beds when we reserved a room with a king size bed. When we asked to be moved to a room with a king size bed like we had reserved, in a very unapologetic way they said they didnt have one available, that what we got was all they had available and they could move us to a new room the next day. We were only there for 2 days. I didn't want to unpack one day in one room and move to a new room the next. Also the hotel is under construction and had one small pool for everyone. The pool was so full and no where to even sit by the pool. The whole place needs to be renovated. Unpleasant stay for many reasons.we will not be going back.

We visited August of this yr (2025). The outside of the hotel looks old. The front desk staff speaks very little English & not that friendly imo. They also will bug you about attending a “presentation” to convince you to spend more money I’m guessing on a timeshare. The grounds are Old! They have these bungalows on The property that look like could be a cute secluded get away but they look old as well. Our room was in a separate building from the entry of the hotel .. you have to walk outside & down a bumpy path so if you have nice luggage keep it at home! This building was weird .. it was just really empty & not inviting like it was once a nice environment but now just forgotten. Our room reminded me of being back home at one of our beach getaways. Very underwhelming. We had a balcony view of building tops & the street. Fine bc we didn’t pay for an ocean view. Our sink had a leak that if you didn’t turn the handle just right it would leak from base of the faucet. Safe did not work but someone FINALLY came to fix it. The phone never worked & never was fixed. Their buffet food was subpar & expensive. They kept the desserts open so flies were all over them & there was a weird smell in the dinning area. Glad we didn’t pay for the food to be included bc one day it was closed the entire day for construction. The ocean view from the beach was beautiful but their pool is small & not conducive for the amount of people who stay there so it was crowded. Stay at their sister property!

Rooms are clean and comfortable, but the pool is small and crowded. The beach is rocky and has a few chairs. If you book through Expedia you will get a different bracelet and the Staff may try to charge you for breakfast eve though it was included with your reservation. This was very annoying.

Not suitable for humanity.

If it were not for a struggling wait staff, this place should be prepped for a teardown. One of the two hotel elevators broke down and remained that way for half of my one-week stay. During the day, the majority of the other one was loaded to more than double its maximum allowable capacity. There was no place for people to sit in the expansive lobby area despite having a bar to serve drinks. Noisy and crowded with construction work. The price for food and drinks was exorbitant.

We had what could have been a lovely evening completely soured by the behavior of the head waiter. Instead of doing his actual job, he decided it was appropriate to ask my partner to play chess with him and then told her she “needs to make friends” (with him) if she ever wants to come back and stay for free. That is not charming, it’s inappropriate flirting and unprofessional. When you go to a restaurant, you expect attentive service, not some bizarre attempt at recruiting personal “friends” from the guests. This kind of behavior puts people in an uncomfortable position and crosses boundaries that should never be crossed in hospitality. A head waiter should be creating a welcoming, respectful environment — not turning the dining room into his own playground for awkward advances. Based on this experience, I would strongly caution anyone, especially women, about the way staff conduct themselves here.
