I was pleasantly surprised by this hotel! The beachfront location is fantastic, with just a few steps to the beautiful sandy beach. The spacious rooms were comfortable, though a bit older and could use some updates. The service was generally good, but had its ups and downs. The on-site restaurant was decent for breakfast but could use improvement in both quality and service efficiency. Overall, it's a solid choice for the price, especially given its prime location.

I had a decent stay at this resort, enjoying the spacious beachfront and friendly atmosphere. While the location was perfect, with easy beach access and nearby amenities, the room left much to be desired due to cleanliness issues. The dining experience was okay, but I found it lacked variety. Overall, it's a solid choice for a beach getaway, but with room for improvement.

I had an amazing stay at this hotel! From the moment we arrived, the staff made us feel welcome, especially at the Tiki bar by the pool, where we enjoyed great drinks and snacks. The oceanfront room was clean and spacious, with a beautiful view. Although we had a couple of hiccups with our room assignment, the overall experience was positive. I appreciated the vibrant atmosphere and the beach access, although the dining options could use a bit of improvement in variety. Overall, it’s a fantastic getaway, especially for a beach holiday!

I had an incredibly disappointing experience at this hotel. The location is fantastic, right by the beach, but everything else fell short of expectations. The rooms were outdated and not well-cared-for, and the service was lacking in friendliness. While the pool area had potential, it could use more shade options. Overall, I wouldn't recommend staying here unless major improvements are made.

Rooms
5.0
The rooms were quite outdated and run down, lacking basic amenities like dishes for the small kitchen. The view from the balcony door was blocked, which was frustrating.
Service

Service at the front desk was less than welcoming, with staff appearing unhappy to assist. I found the response to issues about cleanliness unsatisfactory.
Location

The hotel's location right next to the beach is one of its few redeeming qualities. However, the pool area could use more shading as it gets very warm.

Dining options were average, and I didn't find them particularly memorable.

The pool area had potential, but again, the lack of ample shade was a drawback.

My experience at this hotel was quite mixed. The location is unbeatable, just steps from the beach and close to so many great dining options. However, my interaction with the staff was disappointing, as I encountered some rudeness which dampened the overall experience. The room we were given was clean and comfortable, but the furnishings could use some updates. Overall, it was decent but fell short in service quality.
