Property was well maintained with an open air restaurant bar area and pool. It was cozy and serene. There was also a well maintained children's play area as well as strolling area. It was a bit noisy due to location on a main highway and nearby nightclub on weekends.

The location was perfect with a nice strip mall next door. A bank, grocery store, and restaurants a short stroll away. A fridge would have been a bonus but the onsite peacocks made up for it

The hotel was quite dated and not very clean in the room. The bed was hard and there were ants in the bathroom. The pool also looked dirty when we walked around it at nighttime. I know this is a tropical location but it was by far the disappointing accommodation of our trip. The woman at the front desk was great and very helpful though (we had an early checkout and she made sure we had some food to take with us). The location also is good - we went for supper at a taco place at a nearby strip mall and it was delicious.

The property itself is very nice. Lovely pool with chaise lounges that had a "top" so you could shield your face from the sun, see to read a book, etc. Tiki hut restaurant was good but a bit understaffed. Our sleeping room was just OK. Bathroom not very clean and water ran all over the floor from the shower. Also, there was no sound proofing, and we could hear our neighbors partying until 2:30 AM.

Very nice Pool with a lot of birds, really relaxing. Nice and clean rooms. The Hotel Restaurant did not look as inviting so we did not try. Keep in mind the Hotel is in the middle of the City and across the street is a Discotheque with can be noisy on weekends. We really did enjoy our stay, excellent bang for the buck.
