All style, no substance.
Very poor customer service. We were late getting into room past the hotels check in time of 4pm. Given room right at reception with loud music audible from reception. No TV remote, asked at reception for remote and to move room.... Basically given no response. Had to buy ear plugs and sleeping tablets so that we could sleep that night. Hotel and amenities are fantastic to look at, no actual customer service. Paper thin walls, could hear people in the next room.

Disliked: Property conditions & facilities, room comfort
The location was nice. However the room was uncomfortable. The bathroom light wouldn't shut off therefore was on all night. The coffee pot was broken, the tv remote volume didn't work and the smoke alarm went off from the steam of the shower.

good location. good beach service and that´s all
1 of the 3 rooms we booked had nothing to do with the images published on the site. It was much smaller. Despite being gold members, they did not give us the upgrade and it was difficult for us to get a late check out. The breakfast was very limited and inflexible, they didn't let us put milk in the coffee. good beach service.
