This resort is beautiful, modern, well-appointed, with wonderful rooms-all with a perfectly functional kitchenette. The sushi restaurant is delicious. The staff is very friendly and knowledgeable. The location is quiet, somewhat remote, and beautiful

The people were so nice, especially the man covering the night shift, he spend time giving us advices on tours or what to do, always keen to find a solution when I asked for another pillow. Grreat central location on the island and big rooms.
The location is great
The staff is very accomodating to reguest and offer help in a passionate way. I was traveling alone and they helped plan my days by giving me places to visit and food options while there
My luggage didn’t arrive for 3 days and they told me where to go for clothing as well as called the airlines for updates. The restaurant had no problems with me desiring to eat in my room instead of the establishment. Will stay there again on return

Our stay here was wonderful.. staff was very friendly and helpful seeing this was our first time here and didn’t really speak the language too well. It is in a very remote area so not having a car is extremely tough as taxis and busses are aren’t available near by .. walking could be challenging with the hills but overall I’d definitely recommend staying here. It was very peaceful
Not a “resort”. It was an average hotel. Rooms were clean and bedding was very comfortable. The outdoor amenities were a mess. Grass was not kept up. Pool area was a far walk and no umbrellas / bar / music. Hot tub was broken. Over priced for this hotel. I give it a 4/10

Reception/service was very thorough, but facilities (a main draw) were closed for a private event. The other pool/jacuzzi was not functioning and there didn't seem to be any urgency to address/fix it. Doesn't live up to resort as the name suggests

The location is challenging to get to but the property with the 2 pools overlooking the water is worth the drive.
Some updating is required especially in the hallways to the rooms. Rooms are updated and beautiful. We needed a light replaced and a slow water faucet to be fixed.
The reception is very helpful and accommodating. Very knowledgeable about the island.
Breakfast is a buffet and not worth it if you are expecting a North American standard.

Disappointing
We are disappointed with our stay. We rented a duplex with partial seaview. Upon our arrival, air con & phone did not work. Balcony sliding door cannot lock, the locker/safe was broken. Ventilation throughout the building is poor. We can smell breakfast bacon in the elevator and our 3rd floor hallway, even after lunch time. We found a cockroach on the first night. We did however, receive excellent service from Maria (front desk staff). She worked very hard to try & fix all the problems. Without Maria's help, we will not be able to complete our 4 nights stay at ANC. We cannot thank her enough. She is an asset to ANC.
