the location is AMAZING. the beach is super close to the hotel and i could walk to cool cliffs easily. there were lots of restaurants close by. breakfast had many choices. the pool area had plenty of beds and umbrellas.
the food and drink prices were too high. i ate at the hotel once waiting for the room. it would be better if the prices were more affordable for the average traveler.
