The resort is located right on the beach, which is truly a highlight. The staff is exceptionally helpful, going out of their way to assist with anything you need. However, while the pool area is inviting, the rooms are in need of some improvement, and the dining experience could be a bit better, particularly at dinner. Overall, it offers decent value but be prepared for some ups and downs.
