9.4/10 Exceptional! (1,002 reviews)
"No cash in any of the restaurants or bars is abhorrent. Breakfast was oily meats and rubber eggs. Overpriced breakfast charge for mediocre food. Tray charge for room service is offensive. These opinions will be also allocated to our upcoming Google review."

"This property is spacious and nicely located along the 4 Mile Beach, but it is not easily walkable to the town nor any restaurants nearby. The facilities/pools seemed like they could use a deep cleaning although our room seemed to be updated and clean. The restaurants on site are quite good."
