Amazing
Pros:

This hotel is wonderful, it's clean, well appointed, and the food is good. The thing that takes it over the top is the staff. They are wonderful and have amazing customer service!

Cons:

I don't like booking.com. I didn't realize they aren't transparent with information. I needed to change this reservation and I understand that it was not refundable, but Booking sent me to the hotel, they explained to me that they are not able to change ANYTHING about reservations made through booking.com. It bothers me that booking.com wasn't transparent with the information.

Excelente hotel, mas o preço é apenas do apartamento, todo o restante é a parte.
Pros:

O hotel é lindo, muito bem localizado, praia maravilhosa, funcionários atenciosos. Você tem tudo perto. A praia tem acesso fácil pelo hotel, praticamente privativa. A piscina é bem disputada, mas pegamos temporada de férias escolares.
Agradeço a atenção especial que recebemos do supervisor Oniel.

Cons:

Eu havia entendido que o serviço de piscina como cadeiras e guarda sol estavam inclusos no preço, mas custam 60 dólares por dia. Se você pretende ir a outras praias vai gastar o mesmo, mas se a ideia é permanecer no Resort, o serviço NÃO é gratuito.
O café da manhã não estava incluso,mas há várias opções de locais próximos como IHOP
Estacionamento tem um preço razoável.

Thank you Mrs Pebbles!
Pros:

So far from the minute we checked in everything has gone so smoothly. Mrs Pebbles at the front was so nice and friendly. Check in was fast & the easiest thing we've done on vacation thus far. This hotel is also pet friendly, we don't travel without our fur baby and he has been more comfortable here so far than anywhere before.
