This resort is perfect for those who crave relaxation, featuring multiple pools and a private beach. However, it's a bit remote, requiring a car to explore the area. While the amenities like the gym are fantastic, the service at the pool was disappointingly slow. Overall, it's a great experience if you're willing to splurge a bit for the soothing environment.

I was really looking forward to a luxurious stay, but my experience at the hotel fell short due to several issues. The ambiance was nice, but the service and the beach access were disappointing. I did enjoy some aspects like the staff's efforts, but overall, I wouldn't say it was worth the price I paid.

Overall, I had a great vacation at this beautiful resort with stunning grounds and excellent staff. The ocean view from our apartment was wonderful, enhancing our experience. However, I was disappointed by the uncomfortable pull-out bed and the misleading fridge size. Additionally, while the spa services were good, the restaurant's offerings did not meet expectations. Despite some setbacks, the location provides a peaceful escape, albeit with some drive time for sightseeing.

Rooms

We stayed in a one-bedroom apartment that had a lovely ocean view, but the pull-out bed was really uncomfortable, which affected our sleep. The refrigerator was a letdown, as we expected a full-sized model and got only a bar fridge instead.

The staff were incredibly polite and went above and beyond to assist us, especially Craig who was a standout in helping with our needs.

I had an incredible stay at the hotel, which is set in a stunning and peaceful area. The service truly made a difference, as the staff was attentive and accommodating. The rooms were spacious but showed some signs of aging, and it would be nice to have more modern amenities. The dining options were somewhat hit or miss, with a few highlights but also some areas for improvement. Overall, it was a lovely getaway, but there are a few areas that could use attention.
