Categories

Cleanliness
7.5
Mixed reports: several guests praised rooms and pools as very clean, but there are multiple complaints about filthy AC coils, dirty kitchen items, lingering odors in hallways and occasional maintenance-related cleanliness issues.
Service
9.1
Consistently positive: staff, front desk and management were praised for being helpful, accommodating (resolved booking issues, made anniversary special) and friendly throughout stays.
Location
9.3
Strongly positive: repeatedly described as right on the beach, close to restaurants and shops—one of the hotel's standout strengths.
Room Quality
7.8
Mixed: some guests found beds comfortable and rooms spacious, while others reported noisy or faulty A/C, uncomfortable beds for some, tiny balconies, wobbly fans and other maintenance issues.
Amenities
8.1
Generally good: pools (including a heated pool) and lounging areas are popular, but guests noted lack of poolside food/drink options (no tiki bar), occasional pool closures, and missing modern conveniences like USB outlets.
Value for Money
7.3
Below expectations for some guests due to perceived high rates and additional charges (notably paid parking fees), though occasional gestures (e.g., upgraded/extra rooms) improved perceptions for others.
Food and Beverage
6.8
Limited offerings: several guests pointed out there is essentially no on-site food service beyond a gift shop with pre-packaged items and no pool/bar service, leading to low marks in this area.
Overall Experience
8.9
Overall positive: many guests described relaxing, wonderful stays and intention to return, despite recurring maintenance, noise, parking and limited F&B issues that tempered some experiences.

Didn’t meet our expectations for just a standard facility
Pros:

The property wasn’t the same as described or pictured. There was no parking or loading zones which meant carrying your stuff from over five blocks away just to check in and leaving your car in a shady location. There are no facility amenities and they lock the gate from the beach super early so we were locked out. This was the most strenuous stay with no measures for any relaxation. I was charged a resort fee but they don’t even offer any type of towel services. No on site parking available and weren’t able to carry my case of bottle water to my room because I had to park a half mile away.

Cons:

Nothing, there weren’t any good qualities
