I stayed in a premium cottage sea view, king bed and i loved the direct access to the beach. It felt so exclusive! the room had a separate seating area. Perfect. i especially liked the turndown service, with fresh linens and thoughtful treats each evening. the on-site seafood restaurant served delicious meals with amazing ocean views, a highlight of my stay!
I found the gym equipment a bit outdated. Some machines needed maintenance.

Mixed Feelings About This Stay

chaotic buffetslow service
I was disappointed to find the breakfast buffet was quite chaotic. the hotel needs a bigger space to handle the number of guests. also service at the pool was slow. It often took around an hour to get food. this made relaxing by the pool less enjoyable than it could have been.
