Guest Review: Multiple swimming pools. Lots of space for children to play. Open view on the beach. Good restaurants.
Guest Review: We booked a junior suite and it was clean, spacious, comfortable and very reasonably priced (5 days and 4 nights for under $1,500 USD). The room came with a free buffet breakfast that offered a full range of food. It had an ocean view and beach access from the hotel. The staff members were friendly and helpful. The rooms were restocked with bottled water daily. On our floor (9th) some rooms were undergoing remodeling, which in my view is a positive sign that the hotel is committed to upkeep.
Guest Review: The place is gorgeous and lends itself both for active leisure (kayaking, swimming, visiting sights) and relaxing times (reading on the many hammocks, contemplating the gorgeous sunset whilst swinging on colourful rocking chairs). They were super accommodating and booked us a trip to see the bioluminescent plankton at 4am (one of the most incredible nature experiences of my life). Food is more than serviceable (pricier than inland — but you're on an island so it makes sense!). There's 3 beautiful cats roaming around...which is always a plus for me. I was there for a night at the beginning of May and there was only another couple staying, so the place felt like a quiet dream! Watching all kinds of birds, fish and crabs in their environment was such a joy.
