Functional (and fun) luxury

Every day got better with discoveries such as Pikio cafe right in the lobby area. Negra in a can was the best beer I can remember ever as were the grouper fish tacos. The next day at breakfast was the same thing. Any curveball order the staff was on top of it. I kept changing seats in the luxury designer lobby, terrace and cafe because everywhere to sit was so appealing. The guests and staff all seem dynamic and fun.

Ways to up comfort

Please address 1) Mosquito control at the pool - bug repellent given by front desk IS appreciated, but electric bug zapper would be the better answer 2) Sanitizer dispenser in lobby - why is it empty?

This place is a complete joke. Calling or talking to the staff gets you nowhere—they don’t solve problems, they just deflect. On top of that, the price gouging is unreal. I ended up paying for 4 days here what I could have paid for 7 full days across the street at the Hilton, where they actually honor their deals and treat people fairly. They refuse to honor advertised prices, tack on hidden fees for things you don’t need or want, and then tell you to “call the people who referenced us” instead of taking responsibility. I even watched another guest go through the exact same mess, so this isn’t just bad luck—it’s how they operate. It’s sad this hotel gets recommended. When you finally arrive, you realize everything isn’t what it seems. Next time, my money goes to Hilton.
