I had a lovely time at this resort, right on the beach, which made it perfect for sunbathing and swimming. The rooms were spacious and clean, plus having a balcony with a view was a great touch. However, the dining options could use some improvement, especially for breakfast. Overall, it’s worth the price given the amenities and location, but keep in mind that the Wi-Fi came at an extra cost.
