Nicely positioned hotel slap bang on the beach. Check in on time - just. Nice spacious room - good clean amenities and great view (especially for the sunsets!) Marking it down for a poor bed which had seen better days - and the roll together mattress (or base) i didn’t dare investigate! Noise was also a small issue - but mainly because this seems to be a party hotel in a party town. However, neither items detracted from a great three night experience!

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities
If I was 20 years old and didn't care about anything but partying the place is perfect. None of the pictures on Expedia reflected how the place actually was. I don't know how they can even call it a resort. The best restaurant in there had horrible food. I left after the first night I couldn't take it anymore. I will still say that the staff overall were really good about everything. I had one lady that ran their little breakfast area and she talked down to me. That's what it actually pushed me over the edge and the reason why I just left. They did refund me my money, but I just think people need to know before they book it what it really is.
