This is my 2nd time staying at this hotel and it did not disappoint. The hotel location is right on the beach. The rooms are lovely and maid service every day was a treat. Having beach towels and beach lounges available is awesome. The pool is refreshing and having a bar with food right there is easy

Our only complaint is the people next door were very noisy at night -- not the fault of the resort. The rooms are clean, staff is friendly and efficient, the bar was pretty well stocked as we visited the bar two times and parking was easy.

Room was great! We lost the a/c one night but staff took great care of the problem. Only complaint was the noises from the palm trees being trimmed but it was only one day.
