The staff was very friendly and accommodating throughout my stay. The room was quite spacious, and I found the bed to be very comfortable. I appreciated the clean shower and bathroom. I enjoyed the balcony. It was awesome for watching the sunrise and sunset.

I noticed that the pool area was a bit small. There was limited space for chairs, sometimes inconvenient.

The Beautiful room was an enormous suite with a separate lounge. I found a huge bath and ocean views. The king bed was very comfortable with soft pillows.
