Дороговато вышло
Pros:

Шикарный тихий тёплый пляж. Достаточно шезлонгов, пляжные полотенца выдают. В номере есть сейф, кондиционер, вентилятор, фен, москитные сетки, но москитов много и они прорываются, влажность и сырость высокие. Берите с собой фумигатор, нас закусали. Нам сделали бесплатное повышение номера - побольше кровать, спасибо. Вообще номер и здание устарели, но все изъяны были заделаны-замазаны. Еда и напитки - всё включено, выбор конечно слабоват, но присутствует. Сам не можешь наливать пиво, вино и прочий алкоголь, поэтому есть очереди. Могут наливать в ваши кружки. Персонал разный: кто-то просто бездельничает, кто-то работает. Существенный недостаток - залог 200 USD, который списывается с вашей банковской карты и возвращается через месяц, а также дополнительно они переписывают реквизиты банковской карты и легко могут потом снять любую сумму. Считаю это абсолютно лишним, тем более что оплата за проживание проведена заранее, а на рецепшн дополнительно проведена доплата налогов. Так ещё сверху залог и реквизиты карты, слишком дорого выходит проживание.

Cons:

Москиты, залог.

Amazing location but resort needs some work
Pros:

Location is really amazing. Stunning beach and not very busy. - We went April. Food choices at the Palms Buffet was great at each meal. Our room was a generous size wth a great view - we chose king size with a sea view. Staff in Long bar were excellent

Cons:

Towels and room service are only once a week. Only other place to have evening meal you had to book for and guests were queueing before 7am to book! Decor a bit tired especially in common areas and bathrooms. Wine warm. Gym very poor facilities.

Suggest avoiding
Pros:

Not much. The beach is nice.

Cons:

Very dated, poorly maintained, well past its prime.
Food was poor. Opted to eat outside of hotel.

For room itself, broken safe, broken toilet seat, sand in bed on arrival and a/c unit over one of our beds spewed debris onto bed throughout night.

A beautiful beachfront location with great value, but let down by dated rooms, cleanliness issues
Pros:

The beach was definitely one of the highlights of the stay...beautiful, with long stretches of white sand and clear turquoise water. When I visited, finding a lounger could take a bit of time depending on how early you went out, but it never took too long to find a free one.
Breakfast was good overall, with a nice mix of options like fresh fruit, pastries, and hot dishes. There was also an omelette station, which was a nice touch. It wasn’t anything extraordinary, but there was enough variety that you’d be hard pushed not to find something you liked.
Dinner offered a decent variety as well. There were some staple options available across meals, and while some dishes were just okay, there were definitely moments where certain dishes really stood out and were genuinely very good.

Cons:

The main issue for me was the condition of the room. It felt quite dated and not particularly clean, with noticeable stains on the curtains and bed linen. The bathroom light also wasn’t working, and overall the room felt quite dark and a bit dingy.
There were also a lot of mosquitoes, which was probably the biggest frustration during the stay. It was especially noticeable at the beginning, and while you do get a bit more used to it over time, it’s definitely something to be aware of. Keeping the fan on in the room seemed to help a bit.
In terms of service, it was a bit inconsistent. Some staff—particularly at the bar—were really friendly and welcoming, but interactions at reception could feel less warm at times and a bit abrupt depending on who you spoke to.

Our second time there-we will be back. It's really a very nice lo-key place to be!
Pros:

We love the location. The staff is fine. Some of the staff are very good - the lady in the restaurant (sorry I should know her name!) is really someone special. We really enjoyed the atmosphere. The beach and the amenities (simple tiki hut shade structures) are perfect.

Cons:

The music at the main pool. We think it didn't fit the clientele. Noticed that other thought the same. Maybe don't try to be the hippest, be more laid-back. Also, the sound system really lacked... it wouldn't take much to improve the audio quality at the pool bar. A good example is Sandra's right next door...high quality sound and reggae music. I'm not saying it has to be reggae music all the time - but most of us are looking to get away from the typical obnoxious noise of our everyday lives. Reggae, blues, roots based music does the trick.

Beautiful beach stay, hotel perfectly adequate
Pros:

The beach! Fantastic. The sea was soooo blue. The hotel itself is a bit dated and tired but it does the job for what we needed and as long as you are not expecting a 5 star experience in a 3 star hotel it works perfectly well. The bed we had was comfortable. We had a sea view balcony which was really lovely. There was entertainment at one of the bars 6/7 nights, which was a bit noisy sometimes but not a problem. We enjoyed the entertainment a couple of nights, especially sitting at the long bar with the friendliest of the bar staff. The other nights were not so much our cup of tea. We don't usually go for hotel entertainment but actually quite enjoyed it. The buffet food was ok, some good choices each day, we preferred it to the Italian restaurant (dinner) that you had to book to go to - as there was more choice. Breakfast was good, with fresh eggs cooked for you.

Cons:

There was quite a bit of queueing - for the bar / drinks and for food sometimes. The bars seemed to need to have more staff. Some of the staff were smiley and seemed happy to be there but, unfortunately, quite a lot of the staff especially in the bars and restaurants seemed quite miserable. If you want to eat at the pizza restaurant you have to get up at 7:30 to get in the queue - it wasn't worth it in our opinion. We went once. Check in and check out were vey slow - again not enough staff at the critical times.
