It was honestly so relaxing and such a vibe. I would definitely go again, and I love that the staff would go above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and heard. I recommend and I would say the WiFi was 10/10 since was able to work all around the villa virtually with no issues. Air conditioning were running so good I had to turn it off at night to not freeze and the room was cute and clean on arrival.

The hotel hosted a wedding during our week stay without notifying guest until arrival. The infinity pool, beach club, and restaurant was all closed during our stay during this event. On two different nights music was so loud it echoed our room until 2:30am. Staff did nothing to help make our stay better after multiple attempts to speak with managers. Paid thousands of dollars for a terrible hotel experience. Thankfully the island itself is beautiful and we spent our days exploring it.

Staff is amazing! Met us at the car, grabbed our bags for us, walked us to the counter and even offered us a cold towel to refresh ourselves! Check in was smooth and quick and they walked us to our room, told us where we could park and made sure we were happy with the room before leaving us. Room was spotless!! We told them it was our honeymoon and they had a bottle of wine waiting for us in the room. The stay was amazing! Tons of stuff to do around the hotel. Definitely will be back! 100% recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing stay in paradise
