I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, with spectacular rooms offering easy access to outdoor pools and the beach. The 2nd-floor balcony had great views, and there were plenty of restaurants and shops nearby. The only downside was the potential noise from parties below and the late room readiness until 4 pm.

Rooms
9.0
The rooms were truly spectacular and provided easy access to the outdoor pools and beach. I enjoyed having food and drinks conveniently located near the pools, and the views from the 2nd-floor balcony were amazing. Although there were plenty of dining options on the second floor, it could get loud when parties were happening below. Additionally, waiting until 4 pm for the room to be ready was a bit inconvenient.
Service
7.0
The staff was very friendly and helpful throughout my stay. However, the mandatory check-ins at the same time led to long lines for the elevators above the 11th floor. Checking out was also a bit chaotic and time-consuming, taking an average of 45 minutes just to load luggage. Despite these issues, I appreciated the room service, welcome drink, and happy hour offerings.
Location
8.0
The hotel's location was the best thing about my stay. It was close to the beach with attentive lifeguards on duty, making it a perfect spot for relaxation. The hotel grounds were beautifully maintained, clean, and in a convenient location. However, the visible dirtiness and outdated feel of some areas were slightly off-putting.
Dining
8.0
The dining experience was fantastic with the best value I found during my stay. However, I was surprised by the additional charge of $12 per person for certain options, and the inconsistency in service quality, especially during busy times.
Facilities

The hotel offered a variety of facilities that enhanced my stay. Despite some issues, such as the long waits for elevators, the overall experience in the hotel was enjoyable and memorable.

My stay at the hotel was a wonderful experience overall. The rooms were clean and quiet, offering a comfortable stay, though they felt a little dated. The service was exceptional, with attentive staff always ready to assist. The location was fantastic, especially for families with young kids, as everything you need is right at the hotel's doorstep. The dining experience was decent, with some room for improvement. The facilities were convenient and well-maintained, adding to the overall enjoyment of the stay.
