It is defenintly far away from 5 star resort. Very outdated and overpriced. We stayed in one bed appartment and it did had everything to our needa but there was lots of damage to property. Like bathtub was damaged as well as laps and there was cigarette buds in the balcony and next to it. Avoided food at all cost after my 9 year old ordered chichen nuggets. Few good points really good mattresses gave us good sleep and also had beautifull beach next to it which was advertised as private beach and could be added as chargable.

Great for couples and families
This is an amazing property! Great beach and pool areas. I assume it gets really crowded in July and August. June the crowds were manageable. All restaurants and bars were good. Easy ride into Old Town Family friendly with kids areas and pizza restaurant option. Good for grandparents also, although a lot of walking if you want yo get down to beach. Know that beach chairs and umbrellas aren't included. Extra charge. No extra charge for pool area. Night Club wasn't opening until July Highly recommend

The location, the staff and manager were wonderful and they did what they could to make a bad situation better. What happened was ... a cockroach (4 inches) was found in my bathroom. I understand bugs are everywhere but it had never happened to us before. Note: The hotel seemed clean to me and we never saw any more. For our troubles we were moved to a smaller newer roome with a better view and then moved back to the same size room we'd had previously. We were also given a bottle of wine with cheese. Frankly I expected more.
