Amazing hotel, amazing staff. the location is perfect for beach access, and the breakfast by the ocean adds a delightful touch to your morning routine.
Everything was top-notch.

Hot water was a rare commodity, which is a pain after long beach days. If you’re assigned a ground-floor room, be prepared for noise from the kitchen and common areas, as it can disrupt your peace—definitely not worth the price. Wi-Fi and electricity outages can hit from time to time, something that affects the whole area. The food didn’t impress either. the nachos amounted to little more than packaged crunch plus subpar guacamole. expect inconsistency with room readiness and missing amenities, like hairdryers or ashtrays, which might leave you feeling a bit neglected.

The service stands out, as every staff member is accommodating and genuinely friendly. Enjoying breakfast by the ocean while stretching at dawn was a highlight of the stay. the room could have benefited from better maintenance, with some areas showing wear and tear. The bar area, while workable, lacked ambiance during the day, making it less inviting for relaxation.

Loved the sweet watermelon juice on arrival and the ceviche was a real treat! The beach access was great for some lazy lounging. There's a nice garden area to chill in. Just a heads up, the Wi-Fi could use a boost for better connectivity.

The home-made ice-cream was a delightful surprise, and the breakfast options were deliciously varied. The staff was super friendly and always ready to help, making my stay feel even more special.
I know it's the Caribbean, but I would have loved to be informed about the hot water situation from the start—seems it was hit or miss. The ground floor rooms were a bit noisy, so I wouldn't book those again, but the vibe still shined through!

Amazing beach access with great food options
I had a fantastic time at this hotel with the beach literally right out front! The calm vibe allowed us to unwind perfectly, and the food was a highlight—everything from breakfast to lunch was delicious and tailored to our needs. While I loved the ocean breeze filling the room, I found the noise from the neighboring hotel's evening music can be a bit disruptive at night.
