Only the view is good.
Worst hotel stay I’ve ever had. 1st room wasn’t ready. Not cleaned, and no sheets. After 30 min, they found another room. The WiFi was unavailable. They told us that it doesn’t reach the floor we were on, but it’s fine in the lobby. Also said a router was supposed to be delivered today, but it didn’t show up. 2 days later, still no WiFi. Bed was incredibly uncomfortable, and ‘uneven’ to the point that if you got anywhere near the edge, it felt like you would fall out. 1st morning, it took 10-15 minutes for hot water in the shower. No restaurant available even tho there’s no mention of that while reserving. In fact, food and drink was listed as an amenity. Will NEVER stay here again.

Not Happy
No hot water for both days and no one offered to change my room, no wifi ad advertised, no restaurant or bar, the tv remote only turned the tv on/off. Maintenence came for the water twice and the remote..nothing. and the housekeeper didnt take the trash out, she just walked around moaning and groaning. Lastly i checked out early around 8am. There were at least 10 other people waiting on luggage carts. It was a mess. I would like my money back.

Fantastic quiet beach and excellent ocean front
I came for the beach and it did not disappoint literally steps away. Very private and quiet beach that makes this hotel a 10/10 for me. However there was no functioning restaurant even though it was advertised. It is closed. That would have been nice and no internet service at all even though that too was promised. But like I said I enjoyed my stay. The oceanfront room and the beautiful ocean was excellent. The room is a big size and comfortable. I shall definitely visit again.
