Staying in Irotama has always been fun, the recreation is excellent, the service and cleanliness are very good. The food in the restaurants, however, was not good enough for the price they charge, which is very high. The buses need to be fixed because the air conditioning does not work well and the bar in the room was empty. There is a minimarket, but it is really very poor.

To many mosquitoes, only one restaurant with air conditioning, the prices they charge are very high/expensive for the hotel and the amenities they offer, the restaurant prices are very high/expensive , the beach is not private, it belongs to the entire town, including dogs.

Unfortunately the beach was closed on my stay there and when I asked why they didn’t advertise so I wouldn’t stay there, I was given a lame excuse(not worth mentioning). This is a resort so a beach matters. Next I checked in at the main building then when I was at my building I had to do the check in all over again. Why twice I don’t know but it is a long slow process. Then they asked me to pay. I already paid and showed my receipt but they still didn’t believe me. So it took even longer and many calls before they realized I did pay. Room was beautiful but so hot and humid. It took a while for it to cool down once the air conditioning was fixed. They did that quickly I must admit Buffet breakfast was ok. 6 out of 10. My tower was on one end and the pools on the other end. Shuttle cart. English extremely limited.
