    I would love to stay here again if the AC works

    The hotel Staff was great, The Rooms were clean, and the beds and pillows were very comfortable. Our room had a garden view to the pool and ocean which was very nice due to the fact that the hotel and room air conditioning was out for 2 of the three days we stayed there. Hotel staff worked extra to accommodate including a fan for in the room when we asked for one. I was expecting more from the hotel management for the inconvenience least included breakfast for us to make up for it. So, it forced us to go other places for food and drinks until they got it fixed. When they finally got it fixed, we really enjoyed staying there. The Beach was very nice white sand beach with umbrellas and chairs provided by the hotel. The pool was very relaxing and not ever crowded with an in-pool bar that was fabulous. Beach restaurant food was very good, and atmosphere was open and had a constant on shore breeze that felt amazing, not hard wind just enough to keep you cool. Valet parking was easy and professional, and the location was perfect for getting to and from the airport. I would recommend staying here

    Mother and Son Trip

    I highly recommend the suite on the upper level. It comes with your own conference area. Staff were great and extremely accommodating. Special shout out to the manager Salvador and our cleaning lady, Krystle Nieves!
