We love this place

We are returning after staying here a few years ago. The rooms have great beach views and are clean and comfortable. The property is located close enough to the airport that we walked to it. We would definitely consider staying here again

Very pleased!

The rooms were clean and very comfortable! They have a refrigerator but no microwave in the room. The only complaint we had about the room was the smell coming from the sink drain. Otherwise, very nice and right on a gorgeous beach.

The property sits on a semi private beach which is beautiful. The property itself is average. The property needs to be updated, however, the rooms are ok. Nothing great but they are roomy and clean for the most part. I love having a beach side balcony. Every unit does. When you walk in the lobby, the doors are manual & the lobby is dusty and full of webs in the ceiling. The dining area also have webs around their lighting and in the ceilings. The ice machine is rusted on the outside. The pool was great. The food was good but it is costly. Some of the staff were great but I think the majority of the workers we encountered were rude (hotel, stores and restaurants, even airport staff) which is not a good experience for visitors. For the price, I think it could be better.

Pool was disgustingly green. Needed serious attention. Beach has great potential but had junk laying around. Bar staff girls were rude even though we tipped very well. All other staff were very polite and gracious. Not very much service to guests staying at tge hotel for what we paid.

This property is very close to the airport and was enjoyable watching planes take off and land. The rooms were spacious and clean. The beach is right off the restaurant/bar. There are plenty of lounge chairs and water sports right there. We rented a car but taxi service was right there when needed. You are 10 minutes from downtown with many shops and restaurants. I would stay at this hotel again.
