I paid extra for a suite. The air conditioner did not work. For the first 2 days I had to deal with trying to get it fixed. Finally, after talking with other guests that were also in Suites, I requested to move to the main building. They also reported the air was not working. I had to sign a waiver that i was down grading rooms. This was Definitely not a 5 star facility!!! The rooms were very run down. The shower had mold in the main building. No one offered a refund to the difference in price. I will not be back and will not recommend!!!!

The property isn’t bad but for what they’re charging, you can stay at a neighboring five star property… Hotel does not have room service and only has limited dining hours and options. Kind of gets tiring eating the same thing every day. The room was hot. The beds were crappy. This is a lower end of the totem pole budget. Stay spend an extra hundred bucks and stay at a five star.

Love it! Stayed for 5 nights and had a ball. I wish the pool was open at night or bars stay longer. Also a lot of the restaurants did not let us in even though they had plenty of space and time open like the steak house. But I recommend it.

Everything is great, the plane and the hotel. The only thing not good is that the staff is not good at Europcar, the car rental company. I do not encourage anyone to go to them. They will make your trip very bad.
