The Good
- excellent staff and friendly service
- clean, nice size rooms with WiFi, a safe big enough for a laptop and a kitchenette and fridge.
- huge gym
- lots of options to eat at the hotel and sister hotels
- walking distance along the beach or through town to shop, spa, and downtown.
- daily activities and live entertainment in the evenings
- felt safe
- not too crowded in January
- Araceli was our server on the beach and she was amazing!!
- Erick the omelette guy made me breakfast every morning!
Not so great
- property is a bit dated, but well maintained and clean
- Buffet was ok. It’s a buffet so it’s to be expected. there were nights when the food was really good. Pastor, Birria tacos, roasted pork and seafood night (at sunset) were great.
- The beach was crawling with vendors selling stuff. After 2 - 3 days of whistling to get your attention and shoving merch in your face, I was wishing I could just relax in peace. We usually got a beach chair in the back row, but there were a few brave vendors passing the ropes and hovering over us to buy stuff. We were always polite and said no thank you but it got to be a bit much at the end.
- Random things like not having enough towels, the bedspread was very stained, missing bedspreads in one of the rooms, beach towels required a towel card one day, but not the other.
- Tipping is a mystery
