dated hotel missing soap
the room size and view were acceptable (i mean, who spends all day in their room anyway?).
the hotel felt dated. i found leaks with towels all over the lobby. i also noticed the spa lacked body wash or soap in the showers, quite inconvenient for a relaxing experience.

helpful staff spacious hotel hotel map beach club
I loved the spacious hotel. It featured many areas of interest like fountains and artwork. I also found the staff very helpful. They offered assistance whenever needed.
Upon arrival, the hotel felt very large. I missed a map that would have given me an overview of activities. This made navigation difficult. The walk to the beach club felt relatively long. The pictures were a bit misleading.
