Staff was great. Tiki bar great. Pool area nice and clean. Room a bit outdated and never got housekeeping services for a whole week -after multiple requests. We gad to ask for clean towels and soap etc multiple times at front desk. They did give some of the resort fees back to compensate. Overall good for the price.

It’s a shame that the rooms are in the condition they’re in, because the hotel’s location and the ocean view are very good. The staff is very nice, but it’s not a place I would stay again or one I can recommend.
