8/10 Very good

A good choice for an overnight stay with all the facilities you'd expect from this hotel. Good location just away from the port but within walking distance of bars/restaurants on the front. The infinity pool was lovely overlooking the islands - however there was limited pool furniture and only 3 parasols which was an issue. We enjoyed cocktails on the rooftop terrace watching the sunset. Pity this isn't open during the day as the food offered would have been most welcome for lunch. Staff were lovely and reactive.

4/10 Fair

It was nothing like the other Marriott that I have stayed in. The promised me a service but when I arrived nothing was prepared. Shower head in the room was broken/malfunctioning. Not worth the price I paid. Food was not great either. However the staff were humble, friendly and nice.
