8.4/10 Very Good! (9 reviews)
Only one night so did not use the amenities. The refrigerator in the room died in the night so lost my leftovers. The room was clean and the staff was helpful. The shower function was strange. I would stay there again.

I stayed there for two nights, but the housekeeping never came, when I checked with the reception at 4 PM about housekeeping, they said because the hotel is 95% full, and the housekeeping cannot clean every room. (housekeeping close at 4:30 PM) So I asked for two clean towels, it didn’t arrive until two hours later. They charge an extra $52 resort fee for each night, that should include two bottle of water each night. But when I try to get it a second day, they said water it’s only given out on the first day. Aside from their service, and poor cleaning condition, the beach is nice
