Clean, well maintained, staff was excellent. Wi-Fi was terrible, halls were noisy, outside room noise on street side was bad, and there was a constant whistling of air conditioning.

They had complementary Starbucks coffee in the lobby. Unfortunately, no one told us about it! The hotel itself is very expensive to an extreme. Off-season a beach front room was priced at over $800 a night. We also never received the complementary bottle of wine from Expedia.

Great resort

Amazing stay. We went in the “off season” and got upgraded to a slightly larger room. The proximity to the beach was great, especially because we were traveling with our children. Great heated pool with a sun shelf.
