They advertise airpot shuttle and that is not true, when I checked in they didn’t inform me of the breakfast special and everything there is expensive. The beach area was very small and water was brownish. The location ia good near lots of places you can go nearby. The pool area its cool with a nice view

I like that the hotel was right by the ocean and had a rooftop with a swimming pool and bar looking over the ocean. It also had an amazing steakhouse restaurant. My room was amazing and eccentric in a great way! I've never seen a hotel room like it! It looked like the inside of an expensive spaceship! I felt so comfortable and at home at this hotel/ inside my room. Everything you could ask for right in this hotel. Highly recommended and the price is phenomenal.

Beat up but still a nice hotel. If you are booking an oceanfront room be prepared to have a loud music from the beach the whole day, you can rest only after 9 pm. The airport shuttle provided by the hotel is a scam,they will call you a regular taxi and you will pay for it 1300 pesos. Bright side: delicious breakfast (the breakfast burrito is the winner) and the AC is very good. I won’t come back.

I loved the modern vibe and the great pool. The location is excellent, and overall it’s a fantastic stay. The only small improvement I’d suggest is updating the beach club lounge chairs, as they’re a bit worn, and possibly adding a parking partnership with a nearby parking lot.

Great location and staff was so nice and helpful! Is a Party location next to the beach. If you want a quiet room ask for a room away from the street. The restaurant was great with great food next to the beach. Rooms were clean and spacious just as shown in their pictures. Is a great hotel if you want to be next to the busy downtown area. Walking distance to the ADO bus and Walmart.
