The staff was very friendly. The hotel was decent but out dated. I slept well though. I didn't understand how you can only get towels until 6pm. We wanted to go sit on the beach and it was a little after 6 and they put the beach chairs away and the towels. Couldn't use the pool that was open till 10 without the towels. Confused on that rule. Overall good.

This is a plain 3-star hotel. Rooms are basic, some are smaller than others and can be very cramped. Lots of noise from restaurant exhaust or maintenance facilities (the laundromat room has some wicked vibrations too). Do not recommend "all-inclusive" option, food options were limited and not exciting.

Employees in all all areas were friendly, observant, dedicated to customer service. I purchased an all-inclusive (which I rarely do, especially in a town with so many great restaurants), but I hurt my foot badly, exploring wasn’t an option. Despite the bufffey being overwhelmed with teenage boys, the food is good and made-ton-order selections are especially nice. Createdmy own waffle with tropical fruits, a drizzle of chocolate and fresh strawberries and blueberries. Wish there was an espresso machine, but the coffee

The staff was wonderful, and while the hotel is in a fantastic location, it’s very dated and in need of repair. The only elevator that goes to the top floor was down much of the stay so we had to take stairs. One morning we awoke to brown water coming out of the faucets, but it was repaired within hours.

Paid to upgrade to oceanfront room (240) but the view was blocked by a restaurant table that was never used and the room was over the exhaust fan of the restaurant which was incredibly loud. The room was small and very run down . The bathroom was very small and the sink was by the beds not in the bathroom which made it difficult to get ready. The sliding door on the balcony didn’t work well and a bed was pushed up against it so you had to push the bed over to even get to the door. Had to go up 3 steps to a narrow area to sit in a chair. Our friends were a floor above us and the ocean view they had and the room set up was much nicer. The buffet had a small variety of food. Breakfast was good with omelets or French toast made to order. The female chef at the lunch beach buffet was awesome - made the best burgers to order. All the beach and restaurant waiters were incredible. The location of the hotel is fantastic. Beach had plenty of umbrellas for shade.

UNBEATABLE LOCATION and looong working hours of the swimming pool, which is much appreciated. The staff was lovely, the rooms were comfortable and the aircon worked beautifully. The hotel also has beach front loungers. However, this hotel has seen much better days, this is definitely not a 4-star hotel anymore. It is in high need of a refurbishment. Upon check in, we were given a room that stank of dampness and had mold in the bathroom. We were moved to another room, and the ventilation grille fell out. We were immediately changed to another room (thank you so much for the room upgrade!) and this was much better; however, the balcony door didnt completely lock. Having said all of this, if you manage your expectations that this is more a 3-star hotel, I would recommended it and come back.
