8/10 Good
"The room itself was clean. The activities could use some work wish there were more shows or something extra to do at night. I felt that they could do a better job cleaning and property itself wasn't lush or feel very lux plants mostly dry and underwatered. It was very nice seeing monkeys nearby and the iguanas made one feel like we were in Costa Rica all great entertainment for my children. Food was meh I struggled to find something that felt like a treat. Dessert wasn't very inventive of particularly anything but bland. Food could have been better for certain. The staff was so attentive and generally quite kind.. I don't drink much so I can't speak about the alcohol but seems like it was plentiful the beach was a delight except for the vendors harassing you a bit the beach and water itself was refreshing"

"Views were amazing and property was very spacious. Definitely enough room for a large group. A/C worked well and was a welcome respite! Proximity to marina is great. We were able to able to walk in for dinner and ice cream a few nights. There is a grocery store only a short distance away. There are also several restaurants close by. The property felt very secure. It has high fences around it and as you pull into the community there was what appeared to be a person watching 24 hrs a day. There is all kinds of wildlife from an iguana that patrols the property to birds and crabs!The property is located on a hill. Walking to/from the marina or beach is up/down a large hill. Stairs to the beach are substantial. We counted over 180 stairs. Property is starting to show some signs of aging and wear. Hot tub doesn’t get hot, not a huge deal but would have been nice after some adventures. Compared to some other properties where there are a basic level of niceties like shampoo, conditioner, coffee, etc this property was lacking. Master bathroom shower was either scalding or cold. Property is definitely one of the top locations we’ve stayed at!"
