Reviews and Ratings
My stay at this hotel was absolutely fantastic. The rooms were great, very clean, with comfortable beds and offered a great view. The service was top-notch, with friendly and helpful staff. The location was wonderful, right next to the bay. However, the dining experience was somewhat disappointing with limited options. Overall, a wonderful stay with a few minor drawbacks.
Staying on the 4th floor of this hotel was a mixed experience. The room was spacious and had 2 king beds with fantastic views of the beach. However, it was quite muggy and damp, and the noise levels were a bit bothersome. The overall cleanliness and modern design were impressive, though.
Staying at this hotel was an absolute delight. The rooms were amazing, clean, and very nicely decorated. The service was exceptional with staff being so friendly and attentive. The location is right on the beach, offering breathtaking colors of the water, and it's also close to many attractions. The dining experience was unexpectedly awesome, offering really delicious options. Overall, a great value for money stay.
