Hotel is situated on a shore of the ocean, so through bedroom windows and balcony we saw only ocean, waves and had magnificent view. Food was excellent in the restaurant, staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Room was spotles. Highly recommended to everyone!!!!

9/10 Wonderful! (862 reviews)
We loved everything about this hotel — the cleanliness, location, pool area, and evening entertainment — so much that we’re already considering coming back in a few months. The two young women working at the reception are wonderful: very helpful, friendly, and truly professional. Unfortunately, the same can’t be said about the gentleman working some of the day shifts, who always seemed annoyed when we asked him something. He could definitely learn from his younger colleagues and benefit from some additional customer service training.
