I wish I could write a more positive review, but overall our stay was disappointing. The hotel was in a great location (although there are no restaurants in walking distance) and the view was lovely, but unfortunately that is the best thing I have to say. For well over $400 per night, I was expecting more. The room was well decorated, but it didn't feel that clean. There was visible dust in the bathroom. There were spiders in the shower. The bathroom is TINY. There was barely room to turn around, much less have any space to set your toiletries down or change clothing (if you are traveling with a family and can't change in the main area). I did like the fact there was a pull out sofa bed in the room, and the continental breakfast in the morning. It was a lovely view from the eating area, but it felt like the whole room was tilted! From our room, the noise from the pool was quite loud even though we weren't directly overlooking it. And I should have noticed this in photos, but there is no privacy on the balconies from your neighbors. You can look from left to right and see everyone. Like I said, I really wanted to like this property but I just cannot recommend it to others.

I was excited to stay here but there were a few interruptions. First, the lobby bathroom was not maintained well. There was feces of the wall and toilet. We could not use it. No one was able to clean it for us even after asking. Second, we were told that check in was at 4pm. We arrived at 6pm and our room was not ready until 8:30pm. That is 4 1/2 hours after check in! Third, once our room was ready, we noticed at least 10 flying insects including mosquitoes and flies. Very disappointing and I was not able to receive a good night sleep because of that. While we tried to enjoy our night on the patio balcony, it was bombarded with a mosquito nest on the wall right outside the room. Thousands of them taking over the wall. It was not pleasant. We asked to move to a different room, but there weren’t any available/prepared. Lastly, my child wanted to take a shower, and the tub was in terrible condition. Draining issues, water would not drain, and peeling coming off the tub. Very outdated and not appropriate bathing conditions. It was not clean looking and I chose not to shower, even after a long day at the beach.

Property well maintained and beautiful. Hotel maximizes the views available. Nice rooms, comfortable bed. Small bathroom sink made it hard to get ready in the morning, but it’s not a deal breaker. Would highly recommend the hotel for a stay.
