While the hotel is in a great location with easy beach access, it has several areas that could use improvement. The rooms showed some nice renovations, but there were issues with comfort and cleanliness that detracted from the experience. The service was a mixed bag, where some staff stood out, while others left room for improvement. Overall, the hotel offers decent value for the price, but there are notable downsides to consider.

7.6/10

The hotel has a beautiful beach and a clean pool area that I really appreciated. Unfortunately, the room was a letdown, particularly for a family of four due to uncomfortable bedding and insufficient kitchen supplies. The amenities like cabanas on the beach are a plus, but the interior conditions of the room need significant improvements to match the beach's appeal and overall expectations.

8.2/10

The hotel has an unbeatable location with direct access to the beach, making it easy to enjoy ocean activities. While the room I stayed in was clean and ideal for a budget-friendly family getaway, it felt a bit dated. Parking was quite limited, necessitating a short walk to a secondary lot, but the amenities like the pool and recreational equipment added good value. Overall, great for families on a budget, but don't expect luxury.

My stay at the resort spa was a mix of positives and negatives. The beach access is exceptional, making it easy to enjoy the ocean, and the pool and jacuzzi were nice for relaxation. Unfortunately, the rooms were in a very poor condition; they appeared old and dirty, with some issues like roaches and a constant noise from the hallway. Service was somewhat lacking, as the staff did not seem attentive to significant maintenance issues. While it's great to have a beautiful beach nearby, these accommodation problems really impacted my overall experience.
