Our stay at this resort was incredible, especially with the ocean views and spacious condos. The location made it easy to explore local restaurants and shops. While the bathrooms provided plenty of hot water, the air conditioning unit could have been clearer in its operation. Overall, we had a wonderful and memorable experience, although the pricing felt a bit high for some extra amenities.
