This is a very nice hotel. I traveled with 3 family members and the two bedroom suite was perfect. The facilities are good and it was nice to have a full kitchen. My only complaint was that there were lots of mosquitoes in the apartment when we checked in. The staff were very friendly and helpful.

The room was nice but it had a net covering over the balcony. Not sure why, maybe it was to keep the birds out. The onsite restaurant was pretty good. Reasonable prices for drinks. Pizza was good. The club across the street was cool. Live band on Saturday night was nice. Restaurants a within walking distance. The onsite beach was nice as well. I enjoyed my stay.

Excellent suite with double patio doors facing the ocean. Clean and bright rooms with well stocked kitchen area. Staff was very helpful and friendly. Club next door was very loud and kept us up on Friday night. Paid a daily resort fee but they only changed our towels once and did not change the sheets. Paid additional 15% fee for dinner in hotel which doesn’t even go to our server. Overall a wonderful location near grocery stores and great restaurants within walking distance.
