It’s a really nice place. Not sure if I’ll return since it’s more for people who are into surfing.

Only for relaxing
The place is a bit overpriced for its functionality. One must make appointments for any gym time, skating time, yoga etc. The food was decent. I would not eat here if I were not staying here. The service was slow. I had to walk up from the pool area several times for drinks. It’s very far from anything touristic to do. So if you want to relax by the waves and have a quiet week then I recommend it.

This hotel is situated on a beautiful beach cove and is perfect for surfing (5-20 ft. waves). I am not a strong surfer or swimmer, but had a lot of fun riding the wakes from the waves to the shore. The beach is about 250 yards, so not huge, but is a short walk to other beaches. Front desk staff was totally useless, but restaurant staff was great. Hotel did not provide any information about activities, cleaning, what is nearby; so do your research. Breakfast was good. Other restaurant food, nothing to write home about. Long story short, good accommodations on a beautiful beach, but given lack of help from staff, not sure I would stay there again given other nearby options.

Everything was great overall. Two things that need change is 1. Check in: tall skinny lady is not very friendly at check in has a lack of communication seems she’s bothered when asked questions which I don’t understand why if that is her job. 2. Waiters were nice very respectful and all but would take a long time to come check to see if anything else was needed I would to keep looking for my waiter when I needed any condiments or a refill.

Not for a family trip
This hotel is definitely overrated and I don’t recommend it. If you have a couple get away or family time, this is not the property for your trip, is ideal for people traveling for surfing. Unfortunately our AC did not work, tried to call front desk and our phone was not working(never worked while our entire stay) went to front desk and was closed, went to restaurant and their staff was very kind and try to help us in the best of their ability, called maintenance personnel to get some help, by now was late at night and all I wanted to do was rest, after couple hours AC was fixed but then was not cooling and turning off every 30min. The staff is friendly, restaurant is very good, however you can find different properties in the area that would be half price.

4/10 Fair

The property is poorly maintained. The chairs by the pool are in desperate need of repairs and some need to be replaced. There are many slippery areas; an accident waiting to happen. The access to the beach wooden path is in terrible shape. This place is way overrated.
