Fee after fee after fee.. parking is 15$ for the night you stay and an "amenities" fee of 8$ a night then if so choosen shuttle to the cruise is another 20$ and parking fee for the week would be 100$.. bait and switch much?!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Everything was good. Many repairs are going around, though. I especially appreciate the staff in the restaurant. They were very kind and foods were great!
Perfect location, the pool was wonderful, staff was friendly and helpful. The room was clean & had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The bed was comfortable and I loved the pillows.

La habitación tenía una horrible vista a unos climas y máquinas no se podía ver absolutamente nada al mar muy por el contrario la vista era deprimente y se podían escuchar y sentir el calor de las máquinas habitación 203 . Deberían especificar en la descripción de la habitación que pagamos casi $400 dlls por noche 😡
Spent one night here everything was fantastic until 7:30am the loudest noise for hours & hours right outside our hotel room all morning long & we had a 1 year old with us, it woke all of us up. We couldn’t even sleep in bc of it. Completely unacceptable smh.
