I stayed at this resort from May 5 to 12. The food was good, the majority of the staff is very friendly, however, one evening, we had a complaint that the staff was un-willing to look after. There was a woman chain smoking in the theater, a non smoking area. The 2 staff members working the area were put into... More

this was a pretty good hotel for the price. the food is good, service is great, and the hotel is very clean. the hotel is a little far from the city center (about 20 mins in car), but cab prices arent bad. i have only positive things to say about this hotel, with the exception of the hard beds.

Rooms were clean and provided excellent ocean views. The food at the buffet was phenomenal. The hotel was also very elegant. Beds are very hard but you can request memory foam mattress topper upon checking in. The adult pool could be cleaner as it is very cloudy at times. We also found that children, including infants were allowed in the... More

Had read reviews that said the beds were incredibly hard (they weren't as bad as people made them out to be) and that the noise from the courtyard was unbearable (I'd take live... More
