I had a lovely stay at the resort, which is located close to beautiful beaches and great dining options. The pool area is fantastic for relaxation, and the variety of restaurants nearby added to the experience. However, I found the room a bit lacking in cleanliness, and the noise from neighboring guests was bothersome at times. Overall, it offered good value for families looking to enjoy a beachfront getaway.

The room was comfortable but needed a better clean, and I missed having a microwave for late-night snacks. The interconnected doors provided privacy, but I could hear the noise from the adjacent room.

Our stay was relaxing and enjoyable, particularly with the beautiful pool area and the proximity to the beach. The one-bedroom apartment we had was clean and comfortable, offering a great view. However, I did face some challenges with accessibility for my elderly mother, which made certain aspects of our stay less convenient. Overall, the variety of dining options nearby was a definite highlight.

I have mixed feelings about my stay. The hotel is located in a beautiful area, just a stone's throw from the beach, which was fantastic. However, I was disappointed with the room allocation, as it was quite cramped for our group. The amenities were nice, but it was frustrating to see non-guests using the pool area without restriction. Overall, there's potential for a great experience here, but some improvements are needed.

Rooms

The apartment we had was too small for our party of four adults and one child. There just wasn't enough space for everyone to sit and eat comfortably.
Service

The staff was somewhat helpful, allowing access to a printer, which was nice, but I wouldn't say they went out of their way to ensure a great experience.
Location

The hotel is in a fantastic spot, very close to a gorgeous beach, which was a big plus. Easy access to multiple dining options in Salt Village is a bonus.

Our stay at the resort was mostly enjoyable, with excellent views and a location that was perfect for beach access and dining options. The room, however, could have been cleaner and better maintained, which detracted from our overall experience. The friendly staff made up for some of the shortcomings, but I would have preferred more attention to room service during our stay.

Rooms

The room was light and airy, but it could have used a better clean as we found some dust on the headboard and plugs. It wasn't serviced during our four-night stay, which was disappointing.

Service from the staff was quite accommodating, and they went out of their way to assist us, which we appreciated.
