We stayed a week at this property in January and it was so so. Not the worst but not the best. The beach and pool are very nice but there were not enough beach chairs so the other option was to pay $10 for each chair. The staff was nice but the service at the restaurants was really bad. They are definitely on Island time so expect to wait a long time for your meals.

We really enjoyed our stay here. This hotel has everything you need including laundry, a beach, and a hot tub. Took off a star only because the jacuzzi tub in the room was not working properly and we could have used another blanket in the room, but I'd still stay here again.

Hotel was ok could have used a few touch ups. Room bathroom was outdated, toilet wasn’t no good. We requested for a plumber instead they brought a plunger and left it outside the room door. What I did like is they were connected to the embassy who had some great amenities available.

This is the first time I stayed at a place in Puerto Rico and saw COCKROACHES in my room. My telephone did not work and when I notified the front desk, no one came to fix it. The lamps were also not working. I told the desk maybe they need to change the bulbs. Nobody came to Djust the lamps either. Also the outlets were not working either. Worst stay ever. When I called a few days prior to my stay I asked for early check in and late check out and the person at the desk said that would be allowed because there was less people staying at that time but when we arrived none of that was accommodated. Also when I called I asked if there was a fee for late check out and they said if it’s only an hour there isn’t but if it’s more than there is and I check out at 12 and they still applied a late fee and then told me they accommodated the bad room maintenance and took out the late check out fee which I was already to be received so basically I got no accommodation.

Hotel is located in a nice gated community. It has 24 hour security and felt very safe. The pool and beach was beautiful. Right outside of the community are grocery stores open 24 hours. My family speaks little to no spanish but it was not an issue. All the staff spoke english and there was someone at reception 24 hours. We look forward to our next stay there.
