My stay at the resort was quite enjoyable due to the breathtaking ocean views and the relaxing atmosphere. The room was a bit smaller than I expected and lacked a chair, but the view from the balcony made up for it. The service was lacking during my friend's stay, with issues in housekeeping that couldn't be resolved properly. The beautiful location right on the beach is a significant plus, and I would consider returning for the views alone.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel primarily for its stunning views and beach access. The rooms were mostly clean and updated, though there were a few drawbacks like the dated air conditioning and somewhat lumpy bed. While the service wasn't particularly helpful in one instance, I appreciated having clean facilities. Overall, the location was fantastic, and the price felt reasonable given the overall experience.

Our stay at this hotel was quite disappointing. The room was small and not as advertised, with an unpleasant odor and cleanliness issues.

My stay at this hotel was quite unfortunate. While the beach location is superb, the service and room conditions were disappointing. The accommodations were tiny and needed updating, making it feel less than comfortable, especially for families. Despite the clean factor, the noise level from other guests was unbearable at times, hindering a restful experience.

My stay at this hotel was quite frustrating overall. While the location was fantastic, steps away from the beach, the condition of the rooms and service left much to be desired. I encountered several issues, particularly with cleanliness and staff responsiveness, which made my experience less enjoyable. Unfortunately, I'd have to say that, despite the great location, I wouldn't recommend this place due to the many shortcomings I faced during my visit.
