We upgraded to the preferred and there was zero benefit. Complete waste of money. Dining/food left something to be desired.

The beach was amazing as well as the staff. The activities were lacking. We were celebrating our honeymoon which was made clear during booking and upon arrival and not one thought was put into making something look or feel a little special for us. We had a fun vacation but it certainly did not feel like our honeymoon.

The Hotel was nice and secluded. The staff is great! Im glad I chose the Conrad. It's a 25 minute ride to the Walled City, but there is a shuttle with pick up and drop off times.
