Beautiful hotel by the ocean

Hotel room was of adequate size. It had a nice balcony that had a sea view. Room came with 2 free water bottles a day. Room had AC that would turn off if balcony left open, environmentally sound. Biggest complaint is shower was never warm, even after mentioning it to the front desk. Pool area was nice with loungers and umbrellas, but not a lot of them and they filled up fairly quickly. You could order food/ drinks from the pool, which was convenient. Pool was only 4ft deep, but was open until 10 pm. Morning buffet breakfast was very good with lots of selection. There were several vegetarian options. Dinner and lunch had way less options. Lunch at the bakery was ok, the garlic rice and Margherita pizza were very good. The Adobo chicken didn't have much flavor. The food at The Kitchen had very limited selection and really no vegetarian options. The Spa was nice, with clean and private rooms. Treatment was reasonably priced and provider was very polite. Upon checkout they provided us with a take away breakfast as we would be missing it (although they did put can juice in it for the airport) and scheduled a taxi as requested. All the staff were amazingly nice, saying good morning and being helpful. Overall stay was very good with beach access, nice pool area, food options ok 8.7/10.

Really beautiful. As an avid snorkeller I was impressed to be able to walk into the private beach and snorkel. There's not much in walking distance or to do here but relax, and swim, but it sure excels at relation and swimming. Such a perfect resort getaway. Magical view from breakfast too. Nice free towels at beach and poolside. Staff super helpful, helped me book a ferry on my phone. Exactly what I needed, zero complaints. Even the coffee was good, and I have very high standards for coffee.

The only issue I faced is the front disk assistant. Upon checking in, she was asking for my booking confirmation. Going through several countries in my travel this time, I mad booking with several agencies. So I had a hard time finding out which one I made this booking with. So I asked if she can tell me which travel agency was the booking done with!! She replied Expedia. No im having problems with phone reception, so I asked her ( if you see my reservation and n your system, why do you need to see the confirmation #, my name and my reservation are there and you see it, she replied, it’s is the hotel policy. Stoped and time consuming i think. Lesson, Always have your booking confirmation ready when checking in
