Reviews and Ratings
My stay at the hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms, although not the most updated or clean, had very comfortable beds and a nice touch with the flowers. The service, particularly from the maids, was fantastic and they were always ready to assist. The location was convenient within the 'Suites' area, near themed restaurants and the beach, although lacking a bit in terms of in-water amenities. The dining options, especially the grill outside with daily lobster specials, were a highlight. The facilities were decent, but there were some noticeable areas that could use improvement.
I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were not as updated nor as clean as I had hoped, but they did have very comfortable beds and a big bathroom. I was pleasantly surprised to find my favorite bottles of wine stocked in the room.
The hotel offers a mixed experience with slightly outdated and less clean rooms but boasts full bottles, a nice touch for wine enthusiasts. The service, though lacking a bit of training, is provided with a great manner and personalized touches. The location, while promising a lot, delivers above themed restaurants but still has room for improvement. Dining experience, with its outdoor grill and delicious salads, stands out, while the facilities are satisfactory for a pleasant stay overall.
I absolutely loved my stay at this hotel! The location is fantastic, right next to the beach and within walking distance of various restaurants. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and the staff was incredibly friendly. Although the dining experience had some limitations, the overall experience was delightful. The price was reasonable, but there were additional charges for Wi-Fi.
The hotel is conveniently located within the 'Suites' area in front of the main office with a perfect view of the beach, offering first-class furnishings and full bottles in the rooms. The service stands out for its excellent personalized touch, though they might overlook a request at times. The dining experience is delightful, especially enjoying lobster by the pool, and the facilities are top-notch. However, the shocking amount of plastic straws littering the beach is a concerning downside.
I had an incredible time at this hotel! The rooms were beautifully decorated with a big bathroom full of flowers and they even surprised me with an entire cake. The service was top-notch, with amazing and polite staff eager to provide excellent service. The location was perfect, just outside the private beach area with easy access to everything. The dining experience by the pool with lobster everyday was mouthwatering. The facilities were exceptional, making my stay even more enjoyable.
