9.2/10 Wonderful! (433 reviews)

Breakfast menu was unparalleled. So many options on the buffet, all delicious, and the menu items are prepared to perfection. The staff is warm, attentive and kind. The property is beautiful, with superb design and attention to details, surrounded in lush greenery. The pool area is so luxurious, we didn't want to leave it. I would heartily recommend.

The service was superb. Property shows some wear after 10 years. Pool wasn’t heated as should be. Location is great and the simple but efficient beach service is a nice touch. Hopefully I’ll come back next year.
