We loved the hard flooring in the room as I much prefer hard floor over carpet. My only issue was that the room did not match the photos at all. Even though it looked like a suite, it was definitely a small standard room. Also, breakfast available means it is not a free continental breakfast. It was reasonably priced by vacation standards and tasted great but was still $13/person which we were not aware of till we got there. The beach was fantastic. Though be aware to borrow their chair and umbrella is $50/day for use. Better to bring your own or buy something cheap at a local store. The bathrooms were small and only provided two towels for 4 people. With the beach and pools you do go through them over several days but they were pretty good about giving us new ones. We had a pool view and with the music and bar crowd it was a bit loud. I suggest getting ocean view if you want something quieter.

It was ok, all employee was rude except one that’s he is black with braid, he was always on top and offering towels or asking if we needed something, no music on the middle pool, front pool was too cold. Servers needs to be more polite and put a smile on their faces , if they don’t like their job, they need to get another one, were there to relaxed not take everybody attitude. ATM was broke, my granddaughter cross was stolen from the middle pool.

Pool area was very dirty. Beer cans and soda cans everywhere. McDonald’s bags at edge of pool with seagulls going after them. 2 dirty pampers next to pool. Food in restaurant was decent but extremely slow service. Took 20 minutes sitting at our table before we finally waved someone down just to ask for menus. Food took a little over an hour to come out. For the high price we expected at least a decent experience. Multiple people smoking cigarettes at pool and around pool area with staff waking by and saying nothing to them.

Good amenities but poor conditions of buildings and rooms. Upon arrival we had a problem with drainage on sink and shower tub. The building we stayed in “B” had a very musty smell and although is non smoking, you could smell smoke around us. TV must be the oldest model possible and when traveling with children, TV is a necessity. The hotel has 3 nice swimming pools and two nice restaurants that serve good food.
