Beautiful pool, great food, gorgeous landscaping, and comfortable beds. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable, the view is beautiful, and the vibe is laidback. Overall it was awesome. The room was showing its age, but it was clean and it was huge. It had a separate bedroom and a living room and it was well worth the money spent. We will definitely be going back.

Absolutely loved our night at this hotel. Wish we’d stayed longer. The pool is open until midnight, so it’s perfect for a dip after a long hot day.

The property needs some refreshing. Uncomfortable bed and the AC has trouble keeping up with the heat during the day. Wonderful staff, the attached restaurants and bar are awesome. The pool is great with awesome decor.

The property was nice but the room is really dated and had an old house smell. I couldn't sleep in the bed and stayed in another hotel nearby.

The room was not even equivalent to a motel 6. It was baldly decorated, i had read reviews about a funny smell that I wish I paid more attention to. That smell is a roach bomb that was let off in the room and the room was never aired out thoroughly. We found 4 large dead roaches in our room that I’m sure came out of hiding to die. The toilet ran the entire time. The shower head was not tightened on top so it sprayed water everywhere. There was no soap in the dispenser either so we just used shampoo. The bed side table was falling off. We had the AC set at 61 because it was so hot and it got down to around 76 in the room. The tiki bar outside has good drinks but they were about $18 a piece and the food was o oh good if you like deep fried. Sanchos, the other restaurant was terrible. My husbands steak fajita was sad and overcooked and fried and my taco salad was so wet and sloppy. The pool is good but the lounge chairs are cheap. I can tell they are trying to reach the tiki theme but overall this is nowhere near a 4 star property.

Great spot for a fun pool day and 2 restaurants on site. Tiki bar food just okay. Room was out of shampoo and body wash in the dispensers. Housekeeping should check that before renting the room. Also, only one coffee packet in the room.
