    Had a great time.

    We had a great time. Service was wonderful. The location on the beach is fantastic, sugar sand and almost no weeds. The multiple pools are nice as you can choose if you want active or relaxing. Food was ok.

    Great Place!

    I was worried because of some bad reviews. Don’t let those discourage you. Our room was clean and beautiful as was our ocean view, The variety of food was phenomenal in the buffet. If you can’t find something you like, that’s on you. All of the staff were over the top friendly and helpful. The beach is small but the action was at the pool! The only issue we encountered was one of our rooms was not ready until LATE afternoon. We arrived early and had three rooms so we were able to unload everything in one room while we waited for the other two.

    Holiday

    Very attentive staff, friendly and service was on point... the only thing I was bihered with was at dinner men can't wear vests but women can! Was very strange but location, food and vibes was good... the rooms could do with a touch up but all round good holiday hotel spot.
