The location is the best thing about the property. Beach front, right on the boatdwalk. We stayed in a renovated seaview room with a kitchen and balcony. The room was good - spacious and clean. The balcony is shared with the room beside. We were initially incorrectly taken to a road view room and it wasn't somewhere that I'd stay. Very small and depressing, not renovated. Maybe good for 1 person who didn't plan on being in the room much. The pool is nice too but they charged $3 USD per towel rental even though we were staying there, and then the cleaning staff took the towels (we planned to use them again). The pool area was also very busy on cruiseship days; the resort rents out chairs and cabanas to cruise passengers. We didn't eat at the restaurant. It was convenient having the market next door for water etc. Istanbul next door had good food. Every weekday morning we walked to Le Cafe French Bakery. Highly recommend the bakery - lots of fresh food selections, reasonable prices and awesome service.

First the staff are very nice and helpful. Second, this is not a handicap friendly establishment. There are 21 steps up from street level to the lobby. There was another flight of stairs up to our room. The room is small. The bathroom is small and cramped. There is no house phone in the room. The tv did not work. The refrigerator shelves were sticky. As far as I can tell, there is no direct access from the lobby to the beach. You must exit to Front street and then go around to the beach. There is no way to darken the room. The air conditioning works.
