9.4/10 Exceptional! (2,207 reviews)
Very attentive service. Breakfast delivered to room from a limited menu. Nice shower. Excellent view and beach access. Nice refrigerator and freezer. Wife found bed too hard (though I didn’t). Shower floor is as slippery as ice. Two ice machines for whole complex. Would stay again.
