About

Relaxed units in a sophisticated beachfront apartment hotel with a spa, pools & dining, plus a gym.

A beachfront apartment hotel with clean rooms, super staff, and really secure grounds. The western-style restaurants are kind of average and a bit expensive for what you get — similar to a mid-tier Caribbean hotel, with some minor tweaks needed for shower pressure and bug control.

    Not a 5 star hotel! Rooms are clean but not great. Showers don't have enough pressure, there is a constant issue with bugs and mosquitoes. Some insect spray would have been helpful. With some minor tweaks this place could be improved a lot.

    Room is wonderful. Staff super. Really secure. The restaurants are western style good and bad. Expensive for what you get. Kinda similar to an average Caribbean hotel.

    I really, how did delicious meal a sad down? Ate some fries? They brought me a habitizer of chips and peanuts and overlooked the view. I mean the view was amazing period. If I could eat the view I would would be like a buffet. The service was good to the waiter that we had. He was cool. He seemed like he was new to the job. I cannot wait to come back to eat again. And they had a separate vegetarian menu. I was so surprised. How tall are you going to be all seafood. #vegetarian #vegan

    This is actually a nice enough place if you want to splurge, and relax at the waters edge for a few days. The buildings are 1970’s retro, high end design with a lot of hardwood features. They are kept in great condition, and they are spacious with large living/dining/kitchen/bedrooms, bathrooms, and terraces, unlike more modern places which are far more cramped. The 2 pools are large, with great deep ends and the landscaping in the lounging areas is tastefully done. The restaurants have great food and the views are excellent
