My wife and I did not get to use the room since just the outside door of the room was in pretty bad condition and the room smell like damp air from a previous storm damage, other room doors next to our room also looked like damage, those rooms shouldn’t be rented out to anyone, I would not recommend this property to anyone.

Good value for families visiting Puerto Rico. I’d recommend renting a car since the restaurants on the property aren’t always open, but there are lots of great food options and a Walgreens just outside the resort. The property is well maintained, the pool is nice, and it’s just steps from the beach. The rooms are decent, though the bathrooms could use an update. The best part was the beautiful ocean views. The front desk staff were ok but could have been friendlier. Overall, a great value for a family beach vacation.

DISGUSTING! It goes so far beyond just being outdated. It was filthy. All the halls smell of mildew. The wooden doors are all warped. I opened one of them and it had a/c duct work running through it. It was full of black, wet mold.
