Guest Ratings & Reviews
The hotel rooms were comfortable and clean, although room service was delayed on the first day. The location was beautiful with well-maintained surroundings, but the dining experience had long lineups and limited options. The service was exceptional, especially from staff like Johnny, Elvis, and Ishmael at the pool. Overall, a pleasant stay with a few minor hiccups.
The hotel offers very nice, clean, and well-maintained rooms that are comfy and have a bit of a classy look. The rooms are spacious and cleaned daily, providing a variety of food options. However, the service could benefit from extra training to handle language barriers and cultural differences effectively.
I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were spacious and clean, giving me plenty of room to relax and enjoy. The service was exceptional, with the staff going above and beyond to make my stay memorable. The location was beautiful, with well-maintained pools and a serene atmosphere.

I had a lovely stay at the hotel. The rooms were clean and nicely decorated with a local theme, providing a comfortable atmosphere. The restaurant and buffet offered a variety of delicious options. However, the rooms could use some more care and attention to detail.
