The property is very nicely maintained and the pool area welcoming and tropical. The views of the beach are the highlight of the property , especially from the upper terrace. The front desk was efficient but didn’t feel like he was overly eager to answer questions. Overall a pleasant stay. The proximity to the beach…amazing
