Nice and Quiet Getaway
Pros:

The adult pool and pool areas were welcoming and relaxing. The morning breakfast was very good and dinners at the restaurants was excellent. The rooms were comfortable and clean and we enjoyed the fitness center. Great location on Eagle Beach, can walk up to the Palm Beach area. Overall a great stay.

Cons:

The drinks were pretty pricey at $22-$24 each. Also, if you are looking for a lot of action, this is not the place and the casino is not open yet.

Insuficiente servicio de playa para todos los huéspedes
Pros:

El edificio y las habitaciones son muy lindas

Cons:

La pileta estaba demasiado fria, ademas de que por como es la construcción del hotel, tiene viento todos los dias

Por otro lado, si bien el hotel tiene servicio de playa, es dificil encontrar lugar disponible: para tener lugar hace falta ir a las 8am y hacer una fila para conseguir reposeras y sombrillas. Lo opuesto si se busca exclusividad y relax. Existen opciones definitivamente mejores en la isla.

Won't return
Cons:

Insufficient beach infrastructure: could't get chairs as the hotel doesn't have enough for all guests

Pool is too cold, plus super windy every day
