Reviews and Ratings

Feedback from previous guests about their experience.

6.8/10

The hotel has some beautiful features and the staff really goes above and beyond in terms of service. However, the rooms definitely need some updating, as they have a musty smell that was hard to ignore. Additionally, while there were nice dining options, the lack of variety made it somewhat repetitive. The distance from the beach is also a consideration for those looking to stay closer to the water.

Rooms

5.0

The rooms were not up to par and definitely need to be redone. There was a strong mildew smell that made my stay uncomfortable, and it was clear they are aware of this issue and are working on improvements.

The staff was wonderful and very attentive. I was even allowed to check in earlier than the official time, which made my arrival smoother.

The hotel is actually quite far from the beach, requiring a decent walk to reach the water, so keep that in mind if you're planning beach days.

The dining options were great with a good selection of food, but it became a bit boring since the menu was the same every day. I was hoping for more variety during my stay.

My stay at the resort spa was quite a mixed bag. On one hand, the rooms were large, clean, and comfortable, which made for a pleasant stay. The pool area was delightful and offered a great atmosphere for relaxation. However, I did experience some issues like an unpleasant mildew smell that lingered, and the service could use some improvement in terms of attentiveness. Overall, while I enjoyed certain aspects, there are definitely areas that need attention.

I had a great experience at this resort spa, especially with the stunning ocean view right from my room. The room itself wasn't perfect and needed some updates, but the resort is actively working on that. The service was mostly excellent, though a bit pushy at times when it came to signing up for additional experiences. The location was just perfect for getting to the beautiful beach, making it easy to enjoy the sunsets. While the dining options left something to be desired with repetitive food, I appreciated the casual vibe of the outdoor restaurant.

I had a lovely stay at this resort spa, where the rooms were beautifully decorated for our anniversary, which was such a sweet surprise. Despite some minor issues like the hot water being off the first night and the rooms showing their age, they were still clean and comfortable. The service was truly exceptional, and I enjoyed the varied dining options. Overall, it's a good value for money, especially with the charming amenities, but the room updates could use some attention.

Rooms

The hotel is nearly on the beach, which is great for easy access to the sand, although I found it a bit misleading as it's actually the farthest from the beach.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. On one hand, the property was clean and the beach area was lovely. On the other hand, I found the service to be quite lacking, with a few interactions that felt unfriendly. I did appreciate the dining options, especially in the adults-only section, though the distance from my room to the beach was a bit annoying. Overall, it had its charm, but there were definitely some drawbacks.

Rooms

The location is quite far from the beach compared to other resorts, so be prepared to walk a good distance if you want to enjoy the sand and surf.

Dining

Dining in the adults-only area was a highlight, with more variety than other sections. The open-air setup near the beach was quite pleasant too.

Facilities

6.0

The facilities were decent, but I wouldn't say they were outstanding. The pool area was nice, but I've seen better amenities at other resorts.
