If you want a smaller, quieter oasis, with spacious rooms and your own kitchen, a well maintained pool with nice staff,
Pros:

Cheerful, helpful staff. Very clean rooms, well tended grounds and pool, away from the crowds, it feels like the team here care for their property and customers. The pool furniture is very good quality and there was always space and availability of a lounger and parasols when it gets hot. Very much appreciated and used was the membership of the Beach House Club by the beach. This too is very well maintained and has great facilities including good showers and loungers with shade if needed. It is also close to the supermarket which is useful, as the Palm resort is a fair walk (in the heat of the day) from the centre of shopping. There are basic provisions for sale in the hotel lobby if needed.

Cons:

If there was a small bar offering cool drinks that would make it perfect. Otherwise, we were very impressed with the place.

Awesome stay!
Pros:

The acccomodations were exceptional. We stayed in the 2bedroom suite, and everything from the kitchen, to the bedroom, to the bathroom was perfect. The staff went above and beyond with everything and made our vacation wonderful. We felt spoiled yet integrated (like locals) as it was nestled inside of a gorgeous neighborhood, and a quick walk to restaurants, beaches, wine store and coffee shops. Location was perfect.

Pros:

Localização e a limpeza diária do alojamento.

Cons:

Não tinha produtos de higiene. Só sabonete que tinha que ser pedido na recepção.
Os lençóis com manchas na chegada ao alojamento.
Mos o pior de tudo: água escorria do teto para o chão, na casa de banho, mesmo em cima da sanita.
