We went here for our honeymoon and wouldn’t recommend as a “honeymoon” type of visit. Not even a free dessert that congratulated us. AC broke done last night and couldn’t be fixed. Kitchen staff and breakfast was the only good thing. But otherwise this hotel categorizes itself as luxury but I wouldn’t agree with it. We don’t usually travel luxury either and aren’t high maintenance but this hotel missed the mark. The extra level of care and service was lacking to make this luxury. ##### Sharon Stayed 4 nights in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Janet 26 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Beautiful beachfront property.
