Even though the walk to the beach was not too far, they should advertise that their property is not right on the beach side. Other than that, beautiful beach, but should be cleaned more properly as there was so much algae. If you walk further down the beach that’s owned by other resorts, they do a much better job keeping their side of the beach cleaner and there’s not as much algae. I understand that algae is natural but some resorts do a much better job keeping their water and sand cleaner. As for the resort itself, it was nice but would appreciate if there was more things to do and more entertainment for the guests during the day rather than just at night.

We were so bummed to learn that they had sold the ocean front building, so our plans to pay extra for them were not an option as in past stays. The staff members were great, the food options sufficient and that beach front is fabulous. One in our group got sick, but since only one, she thinks she may have accidentally swiped her toothbrush under the faucet. Dang!! For a low budget, last minute beach hang, the rest of us enjoyed it. HUGE bonus is the ability to move the beach loungers to where you want!! Game changer! Though many are broken, when we could score enough decent chairs, we loved that.

AMAZING!!!! Stayed at this resort with a 13 person spring break group and was not disappointed. While it is not a party resort, it was everything we needed and more. The staff are amazing at creating a lively scene (perfect for our pregames), interacting with guest, and providing amazing and friendly service. Food is great, many options daily with chefs available to make food upon request! Beach is a 2 minute walk with beach bar and beach chairs! Resort beach activities like morning yoga and games!! Great mix of guest from all over the world. Would say it’s perfect for any type of stay! Rooms were very clean and staff did a great job of cleaning and tidying daily (especially us since we were in spring break). Will be booking again!!

The property was small-limited areas. The worst thing was that there was mold in the pool which was disgusting, the ocean was dirty, the washroom was extremely tiny with an ancient toilet and sink (dirty), there was a sewage smell in various areas of the property. The housekeeping is not regular, we had to request fresh towels, bottles of water and toilet paper. The only reason I have given a 3-star is because the staff was courteous and the front desk changed our room upon request.
