Lots of art deco flourishes, but the restaurant and the gym were closed. Needs to be refurbished, but it was clean, quiet at night, huge balcony, perfect location, close to the beach, and very convenient to have towels, chairs and umbrella included.

Not as advertised. They said the hot wasn’t a jacuzzi. It’s not a bottle of wine for VIP, it’s a glass. The staff talks to you like they are your parents. The electronics are outdated. Don’t recommend.

This was my husband birthday trip. We stayed in the penthouse. The hot tub was unusable, very nasty and dirty, the table on the balcony the same falling apart horrible place. My husband had to use his phone for hotspot for the TV to work. The alarm clock was broken. The bed was okay. The shower was in meed a repairs among other things. I was so disappointed the ice machine worked some days. The food downstairs for breakfast needs to be shutdown ASAP.

This property is a nightmare! I will never stay here or recommend it to anyone. I was checked into a very dirty room, inside and out. They switched my room due to the inconvenience, but the nightmare continued. The door to the patio kept getting stuck, stained sheets, people with congregate outside my door to have conversations, they left a very loud fan in the hallway in front of my room to keep the floor dry leading to the pool area, lastly there was a hole in the hot tub (which was a like warm soaking tub, no jets can be used). When I went to discuss with the hotel personnel, he was not helpful, tried to compete with me on who hadn’t had a vacation the longest and did nothing about the problems and refused to switch me to another room beans he said the hotel was full. I later found out upon checkout that he was lying and additional rooms were available. This place felt very unsafe. Housekeeping would just walk into your room without knocking, multiple times a day. Hotel has a dank order to it. Overall NIGHTMARE! The best thing about this place is that it’s walkable to the beach, shops and restaurants…. so u can stay away from it most of the day. Do not book at this place unless you’re ok with living in the slums and poor customer service. You have been warned

DO NOT BOOK! Mold in room, dirty towels, broken items, hair in the drain, nothing is as promised or looks online, WiFi doesn’t work either. $45 to park and a $45 resort fee that should include waters and champagne only one water was provided. Staff knocking on the door before check out asking when you will leave, the list doesn’t end! Not worth any $$.
