I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The garden view suite was large, spacious, and brightened up beautifully as soon as the sun rose. All our shower items were provided, adding a nice touch to our 2 rooms. The service was exceptional, from the restaurants to the pool and beach staff, even encounters with the restaurant manager in the hall. The location was absolutely stunning, offering great opportunities for snorkeling and plenty of space for sunbathing. The onsite dining was a mixed experience, with one late evening room service order being underwhelming, although the outside patio restaurant was delightful. Overall, a beautiful property with some small areas for improvement.

The hotel offers spacious rooms equipped to a very high standard. There was a slight delay in room readiness until 4 pm, in line with their guaranteed check-in time. Although advertised as ocean view, you had to lean out on the balcony to catch a glimpse of the ocean. The room itself was fairly large with a lovely, well-appointed bathroom.
