Really good Dining Experience

During my stay, I was fortunate to dine at Acqua, and I must say it was fantastic. The staff was diligent and always smiling, catering to our every need. The breakfast buffet had an amazing selection, and the service was really good, thanks to wonderful team members like Eloisa and Jessa. I truly looked forward to every meal here!

Unbeatable Spa Experience

The Chi Spa was one of the best I've ever been to during my four-night stay. Robeth provided me with an excellent treatment that left me feeling relaxed and rejuvenated. The atmosphere was tranquil, and I can't recommend this spa enough for its quality and service!

Fun for the Kids

As a family, we found the children's amenities to be really good! The pool area, complete with water slides and activities, was a hit with the kids. It was nice to see them so joyous and entertained while we relaxed nearby. Definitely a great feature for families!

I had a great stay at this hotel! I loved the panoramic ocean view room that was not only clean but also free from any pests, which was a huge relief compared to other resorts I've experienced. The service was friendly, but we did have to wait a bit longer than expected for drink service during a meal. The location was beautiful with easy access to swimming and stunning sunsets, though the dining area felt a bit cramped at times. Overall, it was a good value for money, and I enjoyed my time here despite a few minor issues.

The hotel has a beautiful location surrounded by tropical trees, making it easy to relax and go swimming with lots of colorful fish nearby. My room had a nice view, but it felt a bit tired with some broken hangers and threadbare towels. The staff was friendly and very helpful, which enhanced my experience, but I did find some of the amenities to be overpriced. Overall, it's a decent choice for families seeking a vacation spot with access to both the beach and city area.

6.0/10

I found the hotel to be visually appealing and it offered excellent amenities. However, the rooms felt a bit worn down, and my check-in experience was not what I expected, as I was downgraded despite booking a room with a view. The food in the main restaurant was average, and the high prices didn’t match the quality. Overall, it was a mixed experience with some positives but several areas needing improvement.

Rooms

The rooms were a good size, but they seemed a bit tired, and I faced issues with the phone and TV. I also ended up with a downgraded room that didn’t have the view I had booked. Some fixtures, like a broken hanger and dirty grouting in the shower, were also disappointing.

Service

While the staff were generally friendly, I did have a frustrating experience when we were told to sit and wait instead of being promptly helped. Additionally, the lifeguards were late, which halted our swimming plans, and there seemed to be a lack of control over the number of chairs reserved by guests.
