Friendly front-desk staff and very quick. Would recommend the hotel to maybe invest in some nets around the restaurant/food area. The flies during breakfast were not pleasant. However, the breakfast buffet was MARVELOUS!!

Stayed here twice and the first time we didn’t have towels. The second time, the neighbors were extremely loud. Over all the stay was nice and I liked the rooms and the property. Would stay again.
You pay for what you get. If you are looking for a hotel just to shower, sleep and go then this is your best bet. Other than that do not expect much at all. We stayed for 7 days and it was average, the check in process was poor (waited for 30 mins after a 7 hour flight), the hotel room was flooded at the corner of the bed and the ceiling had moulds. If you are renting a car, then parking is very difficult to get as the entire is area is always filled, do not expect a parking to be designated to you. Based on what we saw in the picture of the room was completely contrary to what we received. I would never stay here again nor would I recommend it to a friend.
If you’re looking for somewhere in the city, this location wouldn’t be best, it’s like 30-40 mins away from the airport & taxi fees are like $50-$60 USD. The hotel is pretty nice and the food is good as well. We did find one roach in our room, but nothing too worry about. The beach is like a 8min walk away. The staff is pretty nice & there are a few things to do around. We liked it!

Single night in a single
If you get a single room upstairs be prepared to lug your luggage up high pitch he’d stairs. Although a nice gentleman on a golf cart offered to take our bags up the stairs. Room had a hair in the sink when we arrived and tiny ants. We informed the front desk. Great location. Good value. On site resorption had really good food at a fair price. Parking was very poor.
Walking distance to beach, restaurants and stores.

The checking process was horrible, when we got there we had to wait 1 hr before getting our rooms ready for us, pillows were uncomfortable, caused pain in my husband’s neck. Maintenance on the property was not great the AC was dirty. No microwave in the villa. Sheets were not enough, they never checked on us to see if we needed anything.
