4/5We were so frustrated, that we hardly…
Watch out: Everything with long distance. No bathroom near the pools. Bars in the pools weren’t efficient.

2/5The grounds were nice but we were very disappointed by the food and lack of a beach.
Liked: The room was nice and large. It was nice that the beach wasn’t rocky and you could just walk right into the ocean. The grounds were well kept.
Watch out: The food was extremely disappointing. Very low quality and not a lot of choice. We got food poisoning on the last night of our stay from dinner. The photos online are deceiving of the beach area.
