I had a wonderful time at the hotel, with a fantastic oceanfront room that came with a lovely patio leading directly to the beach. The cleanliness and upkeep of the property were impressive, and the location was not only beautiful but also conveniently close to the airport. However, I did find the service a bit lacking as they were short-staffed, which sometimes resulted in slower responses. Overall, it was a good value for money, especially considering the stunning views.
