I had an enjoyable stay overall; the hotel offers great food, excellent cocktails, and friendly staff. However, my experience with the security staff was unfortunate, as I felt rudely treated in a situation that should have been handled better. The proximity to the beach and local nightlife is fantastic, making this a great spot for families. The air conditioning being extra was a bit of a letdown, and the food quality could use improvement.

Our stay was incredible! The accommodations were immaculate and the staff was genuinely welcoming, making us feel right at home.

However, we did encounter a few mosquitoes in our room, so it’s wise to bring bug repellent. Overall, it was a wonderful experience that we can't wait to repeat!
