My 3 boys and husband really enjoyed our stay but wish we were there longer.
Pros:

Caves Beach Villas were exceptional. They were close to the pool, beach and bistro. We went for a wedding and we will definitely be returning.

Cons:

We liked everything about the whole place.

Pros:

The view was great, the room was nice.

Cons:

Due to a lot of people staying at the hotel through luxury escapes. They had priority, they were guaranteed a late check out so no one else was able to have a late check out. Due to the lux escape people having a late check out the room was not ready til shortly after 3 pm and the cleaning was very rushed as there were still dirt marks on the floors and walls and the dishes were not cleaned.

Needs updating for the Price
Pros:

The club with pool tables, great snack food and no wait time for drinks. The location was great. Bed was comfy.

Cons:

When our room was clean, our towels were taken and not replaced. The structure of the buildings do not look safe. Severely rusting away foundations. The decking on the boardwalk needs some serious attention (loose boards). The shower head is too big with little pressure and no handheld option. The bath takes more than 30 minutes to fill. There was no wifi and no reception. The outside chairs are extremely uncomfortable (no cushions). The rooms smell musky and the lights flicker
