Mariela, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Front desk is excellent, rooms very comfortable and of a good size. The temperature of the showers varies significantly while you’re using them. Restaurants are average at best, so staff are responsive some less so. Food is ok but not very inspiring. Lack of fresh fruit at breakfast unless all you eat is melon. Good location and reasonable rates. Good shuttle bus service to the malls etc

I absolutely loved my stay here! The location is perfect—close to everything you might need. The staff were amazing: incredibly supportive, welcoming, and genuinely protective of their guests. I would definitely love to stay here again! I do wish I had the opportunity to visit their beach, but it was undergoing renovations during my stay. Thankfully, the pool more than made up for it.
