The pool and the beach were fabulous. The restaurant was friendly, helpful and good. Unfortunately there was a bunch of hair in the shower. I was taking a water out of the refrigerator and the little refrigerator door shattered. The staff promptly sent someone to vacuum the glass and it was always resolved. Beautiful hotel great stay altogether.

This was an exceptional property. The food is good but not excellent. We did venture out a couple of times and found very good food near by. The beach front is amazing, all the views are so beautiful. Loved the live entertainment on the beach and at night. Beautiful shops and amenities. I would definitely be back. I highly recommend this hotel.
