Place was stunning. Our only disappointment is the website shows two casual places to eat that were not on the property. Property needs seating (tables and chairs) close to pool with casual food for at least breakfast and lunch appropriate for swim attire.

Staff personnel were very nice. We did not like that there is a daily fee for using wifi and other things. Wifi should be included in the room price, and the other things either should be included or optional but not mandatory. We did not use anything but the wifi in the list, so that was a waste of money. Also, why were we required to put a $200 charge on our credit card at registration? We were told at check-out that the charge will be credited, but why should you hold our money rather than take a credit card when we buy something such as a meal? Also, our room was OK but could be improved. Needed more hangers. And hooks in the bathroom. The AC made a loud noise all night long. Oddly, the ceiling fan turned on by itself twice.

Beautiful property all around! Plenty of activities on property. Great food at the on property Atlantic's Edge Restaurant. Beautiful 'beach' but it's not especially sandy at all. Poor daily room refresh, may or may not complete the process. Leaky above counter sink, bugs in room (both dead and alive), glasses left on walkway outside our 3 floor room (a few got broken and broken glass left all over), vacuum cleaner left in elevator daily. Pizza box left for days on outside trash can by the stairwell.

Our room was clean and spacious, loved the outside tub on our balcony. Their sushi restaurant was excellent with very friendly staff. We sat at the sushi bar and asked them to surprise us with their favorites, it was so good we went twice on our stay. The grounds were very well maintained and beautiful. Would definitely stay again!!

While the room (in the building) was lovely, the property does not live up to its price point. check in was disorganized and slow, my room key bracelet didnt work, elevator buttons don't light up. No one on the beach offering drink service, not enough chairs around the pool, servers who scrape plates tableside in a fine dining restaurant. Mostly small things, but again, felt like a moderate chain hotel, not a boutique high class establishment. Won't be going back.
