The hotel is right on the beach, so it doesn’t get much better than that. Rooms could use updating but the AC works great, which is most important. The guy at the front desk hates his job.

Very nice! Wish there were more points of access to the beach. Also, the side lounging area next to the pool needs some work. Over all, it was a great experience, the restaurant was so good and the staff was very friendly
