In sore need of an upgrade
Wonderful staff, very friendly. Food was good and plentiful. The place is long overdue for an upgrade. My sea view room window was dirty, and the frame was falling apart. Very cold, white room with no character. A/C in the room hardly worked.

Lots of booze, no water
The room was clean and confortable and although we had an issue with the air conditionning, they promptly offered a différent room. The food was average. Drinks were OK however very difficult to get water and no fridge in the room.

Bom
Poucas opções de alimentação, mas boas. Água do chuveiro não era muito quente. Praia fica atravessando a rua, mas não tem estrutura na praia do hotel (cadeiras e guarda sol). Atendimento bom, inclusive uma concierge mostrou pessoalmente a estrutura no check in e tinha drink de boas vindas.

Overall, it was a pleasant stay, we didn’t encounter any issues and the staff was friendly. This is an all inclusive, however, the liquor/ cocktail servings were really small, the food was well prepared but it wasn’t anything special. The price was low in comparison to the other hotels, so it was no surprise that it wasn’t as nice as the other places we have stayed before.
