Amazingly beautiful, well appointed, comfortable, and relaxing resort! We loved the pools and beach and location that was within walking distance of great restaurants but also removed from the center of night life venues. The beach was amazing - clean, clear water, with small pebbles and plenty of loungers. The breakfast buffet was superior quality with an incredible variety of options to suit any taste. We will definitely return!

Certain aspects of hotel need updating (keeping on card in for electricity of room). The pool chairs were never available when we wanted to use the pool. The noise carries from hallway and rooms close by. People coming home at 1am and noise waking us up every night. Service and breakfast was great and outline of hotel is lovely. For the price we paid, it should be next to perfect all around.
