Book the hotel due to the reviews that it was excellent, however the experience was different. While the view was nice the room was completely different than advertised. It had very little amenities, there was no refrigerator, microwave, iron, or coat hangers. The internet was also terrible, me and my fiancée had to move to one particular spot in the room which was the bathroom in order to get internet signal. They also advertised that free breakfast was included, we went for breakfast and saw a breakfast buffet however we were told that our included breakfast only included eggs and that’s it. Not even a water or coffee. They also told us that the beach was included with our stay but when we went down to enjoy it the workers told us that we couldn’t use it unless we bought something and the prices were overpriced. Overall a very misleading experience from the hotel.

Not the best experience

The room had a strong smell of sewage. We told the receptionist that gave us an air freshener, but the smell continued. We also found trash under the bathroom sink and at 8am there was a lot of noise was an event that was being held directly in front of the rooms. However, it has a beautiful view, it’s in a great location, and has several food options. I will probably give it another chance and hope they resolve the concerns for future visits.

A/C was broken, from a room people were using prior and we waited on to vacate, where it could have been identified the the a/c was broken. Took 30 minutes to get a fan at 1130 pm. Rooms are overpriced and overly different for the same price tier (friends stayed in the same type of room next to us for 30% more space and half the cost). There was an overall nonchalant approach to service. No accommodations were made for these issues else I would review differently.

If you are really looking for something that is budget friendly this can do the trick. We liked the beach access. We did not like that. There were not even any towel bars in the bathroom. There was no vent in the restroom and it smelled like mold, but the place was cheap. It has a view. It has Beach access it worked in a pinch as our Airbnb got canceled last minute.
