This hotel is in an amazing location right by the palm-lined beach, which was absolutely stunning! I enjoyed the cozy and roomy atmosphere of my accommodations, although there was a minor issue with the adjoining door not opening. The service could use some improvement as it felt a bit inattentive at times. The dining experience was varied but could benefit from more options each night. Overall, the experience offered good value for the price, despite some minor quirks.
