You get what you pay for! Location was great, property was clean and quiet. Cleaning services should be done daily. Rooms need renovation. Would stay again.

It was a okay stay. Not enough washer and dryers for the whole resort - literally people were hovering over me watching me while trying to dry my clothes after the beach/pool. Rooms are okay. Jacuzzi and pool was nice. Relaxing for the most part, I did like how often we saw security. Not much offered to do besides the pool. Thought there would be more for a resort.
