As soon as we walked in the staff treated us as if they were bothered that we were checking in so early in the morning . She asked “ do you need something “ with a sassy kinda annoyed attitude but we just ignored it . Rooms were clean and had a quiet environment . Worth it for a short stay.

Didn't get to stay at Original booking they moved us to the CourtYard due to an issue they had but turned out better.

This is hotel is very run down, the pictures make it look so nice but it’s not really. The maids left our hotel room door wide open after they cleaned it, luckily our stuff wasn’t stolen. The air conditioner was so loud we couldn’t sleep. The pools were dirty and not by the water. Next time I’d stay next door.

I spent so much for a "suite" that was no bigger than most hotel rooms and then was hit with a significant charge of close to $200 for 3 nights for parking (not enclosed or secure) and for "resort fees". At several hundred $$ a night for a room the resort fees for just a small pool use seemed excessive. I was also not aware of these fees till check out. Will not be back.

The property was very well kept and clean. The rooms were very nice, I believe we stayed in a remodeled room with good space and layout. There was convient dining on the property and two pools. The restraunt was great for lunch. My only complaint was the dinner portions were high priced and child sized portions. Other than that, its a great place to stay.

Loved the 2 pools. Plus the hotel next door is their sister hotel and you can use their pool and hot tub. Lots of iguanas which we loved!!! (Although the locals supposedly dont) Rooms appeared very clean. They definately need some updates, which the hotel is currently in the process of doing! They have music by the restaurant/pool most evenings which is nice. Hammocks you can use. They have fruit infused water in the lobby for guests which for whatever reason i love!

This property is under construction. We were not told about this prior to arrival. There is caution tape and fencing near the pools and there was even jack hammering around the pool in the morning. They will be shutting a pool down soon for a remodel and rooms are being remodeled so call and check the status before you go. The hotel is too big for only 1 pool! We also found out they were shutting down the whole floor we were staying on when we left for a remodel, so we stayed in a room where they were going to trash everything the day we left.
