Reviewer Type: Couple
Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Since the resort was overbooked, we were moved to à stand alone house near the property. Wonderful upgrade. However, they asked us to move back to the resort the next day which wasn’t necessary. The new room was also great. The beach staff and porters were very helpful. The free bicycles were a delightful way to explore the area.
Negative: The restaurant associated with the resort was overpriced for the meal and drinks they offered.
Summary: Easy times at the beach in à quiet location.

Travel Purpose: leisure
Positive: Location, restaurant, pool, spa, fire pits at night. Beach chairs and umbrella,Ocean view.
Negative: This was our 3rd stay here. The attention to detail was not there compared to the first two times. The property went two days without a working ice machine for guest in JULY. All ice machines were down in both buildings at the same time. This seems like something that should never happen at a price point of $700+ per night. Only saw housekeeping once in 4 days on our stay. However, cart was parked outside our room every day. Just did not service room.
Summary: This was our 3rd stay at the resort over the past three years. Resort itself is great, great spa, rooms, pool, ocean vie

Negative: Only one restaurant was open for service in mid April. The food and the service there were great, but the lack of options was frustrating. Even the pool side service area was closed during our stay.
Summary: The pools are NOT heated, in April that means pool water is frigid.
