Thought it felt small in a good way. Did not feel too large to walk around it, and didn’t feel over crowded.

Beautiful property. I liked how it felt a bit smaller than some other resorts, but you don’t feel confined. The food and drinks were great. Everything at the resort was clean and well taken care of. All of the room amenities felt brand new and fresh. The housekeeping was wonderful and everything felt put together right in our room. Everyone was helpful and kind to us. We even enjoyed the lei making class offered. My only complaint would be their description of “ocean view“ might be a bit different than mine. I would have only called my room partial at the very best.

Looks very nice on the surface but extremely unsanitary and not a very convenient location especially if you want to be walkable to things. There are no sidewalks and the walkable part of the beach is about 1/4 mile. More importantly, - the hotel does not use fitted sheets and the mattress protector does not fit on the beds so you wake up on a bare (and stained) mattress no matter how much you try to make the bed beforehand - The comforters do not have duvet covers. Instead, they’re sandwiches between two top sheets which of course do not stay put and probably explains why the comforters are very stained - There was a lizard in our room, explained by there being a gap at the bottom of the door which opens to outside - There was a black scorpion on our balcony - Very few dining options available that are walkable or open early, which means lines at the few available ones are very long - Because everything is so inconvenient, they’re able to price gauge you by charging $60 for a burger at the pool Can’t say I recommend…
