    Request a room above the 12th floor for added peace and quieter surroundings. It's a delightful escape after a busy day.

    spacious room
    clean room
    beautiful view
    dated decor
    lack of air conditioning

    The room was spacious with two bedrooms and three beds, which was great for my big family. It was clean and well-organized. We even had a balcony with a beautiful view of the sea and the calming sound of the waves. However, it felt a little dated and there was a lack of air conditioning, but overall it was comfortable enough for our stay.

    poor maintenance

    The hotel’s overall appearance felt neglected, furniture in my room had visible stains and damage, and the bathroom door was peeling. The check-in process was chaotic, requiring multiple trips between the nightclub and front desk, and guest information was only provided in Spanish, making it difficult for international visitors. Internet access limited to one device per room, adding unnecessary hassle. The beach area was subpar, lacking amenities and cleanliness, prompting a need to venture elsewhere for a proper experience.

    authentic food
    impeccable service
    disorganized service
    unwelcoming atmosphere

    This wasn’t what I expected – Good or Bad?

    The authentic food with impeccable service at the steak restaurant made the stay worthwhile,, amidst disappointing facilities.

    Front desk service felt disorganized and unwelcoming, which cast a shadow over the entire experience.

    This resort suits me perfectly with free Wi-Fi in public areas, a great outdoor swimming pool, and attentive staff. They even helped me with currency tips during my first visit. I highly recommend tipping for better service! I’m definitely coming back for a city trip.
