"We had minor issues with AC being always on, and the thermostats not kicking in. There was also a clog in the AC unit and cause leaking from the ceiling.
The road to the resort needs work. There is a 10 minute stretch that’s really nerve wracking if you are coming in for the first time when it’s dark, and you worry about the damage to the vehicle.
Other than that, it’s a great place and does deserve all the 5-stars. "

"We stayed for the last two nights of our 10 day vacation and had a wonderful time, the service and staff were always friendly and helpful. The room was fantastic with a great ocean view.the grounds were well maintained and easily circumvented."
"We truly enjoyed our stay in our Villa. It was quiet, beautifully landscaped with very friendly and helpful staff. We enjoyed the very close Cafe Mar Azul beach vibe restaurant. We enjoyed seeing and hearing monkeys nearby. It was a very short walk in a beautiful pathway to the stunning beach with amazing sunsets. "
"We loved it. However, we expected a better room than room 502... 502 had a bit of a mold smell and with so many other rooms available we expected to be placed at a better room... However, as we spent most of the days out surfing, it was not too bad."
