the location was AMAZING right on the beach. Breakfast included fresh fruit and coffee, it was very good. The staff was super nice, Tamara at the front desk helped us a lot. SHE scheduled activities and even helped us rent bikes.

The receptionist WAS unhelpful upon check-in. I needed suggestions for nearby places, but got none. Noise became a problem on my second night the room vibrated. I discovered it was a generator from the hotel next door, this disrupted my sleep
