Got bit over 40 times the first 2 nights until they switched our room. Told them it might be bed bugs because the bites only happened after I woke up those 2 days, they told me that it’s not that and that doesn’t happen in their hotel. No apology no upgrade, nothing. Rooms are not 5 star rooms. No room service. Mirrors, TV, and dressers dirty, reeked of paint or chemicals when we walked in. Sheets were stained in both rooms. Food is alright. Only really nice thing is the view and beach and the staff is nice. Very overhyped in my opinion, pretty disappointing.

This property, is outdated, the mirrors are stained, the air conditioning in the rooms aren’t very cold, I had to change my room key several times because it just stop working out of the blue, the elevator stopped working. The shower was clogged. However, the staff are friendly and professional. The property itself needs a revamp.

We arrived early and were greeted by the staff in a very friendly manner. Service was excellent. At first, the Ac in the room was not working, and they sent a technician right away to fixed the issue. The rooms are a little outdated but the excellent service of the staff more than makes up for it.
