The view from our room was amazing and it’s clearly what I paid for. The rooms really could use a good facelift. I also felt like the hallways were very dark which made it difficult to see while walking to our room. The pool area was very nice as well as the cabanas on the beach that are reserved for guests.

Loved the access to the beach. Live music at the pool and Karaoke and Beach Bingo. Two great restaurants and their breakfast was great food and nice views sitting outdoors. Main complaint is that my TV didn’t work my entire trip. An engineer came up at 9pm on my last night and had to reset it. Took about 15 minutes. I mentioned this to the front desk upon my arrival and my last night. It would have been nice to get some amount of credit.
