Ocean was visible front Room 2428. Spa was excellent. You are offered a bonus of day use of the sauna, jacuzzi and indoor pool once you book a massage. (John (Joa) is charming). The room cleaning service was excellent. My experience is that all the staff went over and above to provide the care and attention to guests.

Very good hotel, with great swimming pools and common areas. The beach lounge is very pleasant. The staff is very attentive. As suggestions I'd say that the quality of the beds in the standard room could be better (very small) and some adjustments to the buffet could bring more quality to the service, such as increasing the variety of salad options and the meat served at the grill station (I never managed to receive medium-rare meat, despite making it clear how I preferred)

Title: Great Stay with Room for Improvement I recently had a great time at this hotel and wanted to share my experience. The staff was exceptional, offering friendly and attentive service throughout my stay. They were always ready to assist and made me feel welcome. The food at the hotel was delicious, with a wide variety of options to choose from. I enjoyed every meal, and the dining experience was top-notch. The culinary team truly knows their craft. The hotel itself is set in a beautiful location, providing stunning views and a serene atmosphere. It's an ideal place to unwind and enjoy a peaceful getaway. However, there were a few aspects that I believe the hotel could improve upon. Firstly, it was disappointing to find out that the coffee during lunch was not covered by the meal. It would have been nice to have this information mentioned beforehand. Another issue I encountered was with the pool towels. It was incredibly difficult to obtain them, which was inconvenient. Streamlining the process for guests to access pool towels would greatly enhance the overall experience. Lastly, I experienced some unexpected charges on my room bill. Despite not consuming certain items, I was still billed for them. I recommend the hotel to review their charging system to ensure accuracy and fairness. In conclusion, despite these shortcomings, I had a wonderful time at the hotel. The staff, food, and beautiful location made for a memorable stay.

Estive hospedado no hotel neste fim de semana. A estrutura do hotel em si é muito boa, inclusive a área de frente para a praia, que é muito bem organizada e confortável. A comida é boa, principalmente por ser um sistema de meia pensão, o que evita gastos extras com o jantar. O que deixou um pouco a desejar foi o café da manhã. Apesar de haver funcionários responsáveis pela reposição dos alimentos, acredito que a quantidade de funcionários não seja suficiente. Por exemplo, peguei uma panqueca e, quando fui repetir, já não havia mais. Ela não foi reposta até o momento em que fui embora. Em relação aos quartos, a limpeza precisa melhorar. O chão parece ser passado apenas com pano, sem enxágue adequado, ficando pegajoso ao caminhar. As toalhas, embora limpas, estão bastante desgastadas, encardidas e precisam ser substituídas. Por fim, uma pintura na fachada ajudaria a renovar o ambiente e melhorar ainda mais a aparência geral do hotel, já que ela apresenta sinais de desgaste e aparenta estar bastante envelhecida.

Vale muito a pena, porém, a pior parte foi o check-in. Passei mais de uma hora esperando porque havia poucos funcionários no momento mais crítico de um hotel (após meio dia). A funcionária me informou que havia poucos funcionários, pois estavam em hora de almoço. (Hora de almoço na hora do check-in?! Precisaria ter uma equipe de revezamento).
