We loved our stay at The Eden. The decor is great, especially in the rooftop bar. We stayed in the 2 bedroom/2 bathroom and it was perfect for us. Beautiful views of the ocean. It got pretty quiet at night even with windows open. The pool area was really cute and inviting. Nice hot tub and pool. Comfortable beds. Great location with lots of restaurants nearby.

A movie was being shown poolside-right outside our room, really loud-which lasted until almost 10:00. To make matters worse, we were offered tickets for $17! To a movie from decades ago we could probably stream for free. We have never stayed in a place that did not offer coffee, if not in the room, at least in the lobby. We had to purchase coffee, for $5 a cup from a coffee bar run by the hotel in the lobby. And yes, a resort fee was also charged. Pretty unbelievable.
