Reviews and Ratings
The hotel was a pleasant surprise with spacious suite rooms that felt more like an apartment setup, although it lacked the expected resort vibe. The layout was great, offering a kitchen area, living room, balcony, bedroom with two bathrooms, and a second bathroom, providing ample room for relaxation.
My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The rooms were not quite what I expected for a resort, but they did offer a beautiful view. The service, though, was top-notch, as the staff was professional, friendly, and always just a text away. The location was okay, not right at the beach but still not too far from the fun spots. The dining experience was great, especially at Another Broken Egg. Overall, it was a mixed bag of experiences during my visit.
