6.2/10

The hotel offered beautiful, spacious rooms with a lovely tropical feel, and I enjoyed the relaxing, quiet ambiance. However, the dining options were less than ideal, with inconsistent quality and strange breakfast limitations. Also, the location had its downsides, particularly with nearby noise and a not-so-pleasant view of a dump site. Overall, the property had potential, but some aspects could significantly improve for a better experience.

Rooms

8.0

The rooms were spacious with dark wood decor and private patios, providing a relaxing view of the well-maintained tropical gardens and pools. Although the ambiance was lovely, I felt that cleanliness could be improved as my room wasn't thoroughly cleaned during my stay.

Service

6.0

The staff was friendly and accommodating upon check-in, but I experienced some discomfort from overly anxious staff during checkout, which was not ideal given it was just past the check-out time.

Location

5.0

The hotel's location was mixed; while it had access to beautiful gardens and was a short walk to the beach, the nearby music and an unsightly dump site detracted from the overall experience.

Dining

Dining experiences varied; while I enjoyed one lunch, the limitations at breakfast and inconsistent dinner quality were disappointing. I felt the price didn't align with what was offered.

Facilities

7.0

The facilities, including saltwater pools and beautiful gardens, were stunning and contributed greatly to the atmosphere, though the noise from beach parties could be bothersome.

The resort boasts beautiful amenities and a lush tropical setting, but my experience at the bar and restaurant left much to be desired. While the location is close to the beach, the noise from surrounding parties made relaxation difficult. Although the rooms were pleasant, my overall experience was marred by service issues and dining disappointments.

Rooms

8.0

The rooms are quite nice, offering a lovely view of the well-maintained tropical gardens, especially from the bathroom, giving that tropical charm.

Service

5.0

The service at the bar was a significant letdown. After being accused of not paying our bill despite leaving cash, no real resolution was provided. Overall, service could use improvement.

Location

I really enjoyed my stay at this hotel, and the setting is absolutely stunning with lush gardens and private access to the beach. The rooms provide a tropical feel, which was lovely. However, the noise from nearby clubs and the beach DJ was quite disruptive, especially at night. While the service was generally good, I had a few hiccups with housekeeping. Overall, it was a great experience, and I would definitely consider booking again.

Service

7.0

Service was mostly good, but housekeeping was hit or miss. I had to call a few times for certain amenities that weren't replenished.

Location

8.0

The hotel is perfectly located next to the beach and surrounded by fabulous palm trees. However, I did notice some sewage issues in the area, and the beach music can be overly loud throughout the day and night.

Dining

6.0

Dining could use improvement, especially breakfast options which were quite basic. I found better breakfast spots just a short walk away down Mambo Beach.

Facilities

8.0

The facilities are lovely, especially the pools which are set within the tropical landscape, but they can be a bit risky if you're not careful with the rock design.

6.0/10

The resort has beautiful grounds and a nice pool area, but it can get quite noisy due to beach parties that last into the early morning hours. The rooms are clean and have a lovely outdoor seating area, but the soundproofing leaves much to be desired. Overall, it's a decent place for those who enjoy a party atmosphere, but the noise might be a dealbreaker for others seeking relaxation.

Rooms

The rooms are clean and have a nice outdoor seating area, but the soundproofing is inadequate, making it hard to enjoy quiet moments.

The resort is close to the beach, but be prepared for loud music and crowds, especially during busy hours from cruise ship visitors.

Dining

5.0

Dining options were limited, with the food at the Cabana disappointing, though the Mood beach had slightly better offerings.

The facilities include beautiful pools and access to both cabana and mood beach, but crowded spaces and broken loungers detract from the experience.

Located close to Mambo Beach, the resort offers easy access to both Cabana and Mood Beach, which is fantastic for beach lovers. However, the loud music at night can be distracting.
