After the pandemic, the resort appeared outdated and in need of renovation. Some of the rooms were old and unused, although our family room was satisfactory. The hotel grounds looked decent, but they could benefit from some attention to restore their beauty. The pools were enjoyable and the water was clean, although there were no water slides available. In the evenings, there was a mini disco and entertainment show. The service was average, not particularly great or terrible, but there was a sense of expecting tips. The food at the 5-star hotel was not impressive, as it seemed to be of low quality due to budget cuts. The beer was especially disappointing, tasting cheap and being served warm. There was also a shortage of ice for soft drinks. In this industry, small details make a big difference, which is unfortunate because this hotel has the potential to be good. Despite these issues, our overall experience was great because the beach was wonderful. The water had a heavenly color, and there was decent snorkeling. The warm and clear water, accompanied by the peaceful sound of distant waves, created a serene atmosphere. It would have been nice to have a bridge over the water for easier access to the beautiful bay and a better view of the waves meeting the coral barrier from above. In conclusion, the beach was perfect, but the hotel itself would benefit from a renovation and some attention to the garden. Additionally, the nice restaurant overlooking the beach was not operational during our visit in June, which was disappointing. The hotel should also reconsider their cost-cutting measures in regards to the food and drinks, as they were not up to par for a 5-star establishment. Despite these shortcomings, my family and I still had a great time, especially considering the affordable price we paid.
