I had a pleasant stay overall, with friendly staff and a stunning beach just a short walk away. The cleanliness of the hotel was a definite plus, and I enjoyed the spaciousness of the common areas. However, the food was rather repetitive and didn't live up to my expectations, and I found the evening entertainment lacking. I appreciated the shuttle service to nearby towns, but the on-site dining options could use improvement.
