I had a great time at the hotel thanks to its amazing ocean view and comfortable ambiance. The rooms were spacious and clean, and the staff was incredibly friendly and helpful. The dining options were varying but could use a bit more selection. The location was fantastic with direct beach access, although some parts were a bit tricky to navigate. Overall, it was excellent value for money with all the basic amenities you would need for a relaxing vacation.

The hotel boasts a wonderful beachfront location, providing easy access to stunning views and activities. The rooms are clean and spacious, with lovely views, though I found it odd that the bar closed right when the all-inclusive ended. The staff, especially Maria, were friendly and considerate, but at times the service felt a bit overwhelmed by the crowds. Overall, great value for a relaxing getaway but could use improvement in bar service hours.
