I had a lovely stay at The Beach, where the location was unbeatable, just a stone's throw from the beach. The unit was clean and well-maintained, and the layout was spacious enough for a week-long stay. Although I didn't get to use the pool during my visit, it looked inviting. However, I did notice some concerns regarding the beach chairs and umbrella experience. Overall, it was a satisfying stay, but there are areas for improvement.

I had mixed feelings about my stay. The location and beach were lovely, with stunning views, but the room itself was quite outdated and in need of a thorough clean. Additionally, the pool was not as advertised, and the service fell short of expectations during my stay. Overall, while I enjoyed some aspects, I can't say it was good value for the price I paid.

The hotel has incredible views of the beach from the second floor, and the beach itself is lovely for walking. However, the rooms are quite dated and in need of some serious renovations, and the amenities offered, especially the beach loungers and umbrellas, were disappointing given the high price point.

I had a very disappointing experience during my stay at this resort. While the location was great and the beach area was peaceful, the condition of the room was not up to standard, and the service left much to be desired. The amenities promised, like a heated pool, turned out to be misleading, and overall, I felt that the value for money was lacking.
Rooms

The room was not very clean upon arrival, and it felt cramped for the four of us. The Murphy bed was uncomfortable, and the pull-out couch emitted an odor that made it hard to relax.

The service was lacking, and I felt ignored when I tried to reach out with my concerns. It seemed like the management was more interested in profits than guest satisfaction.

The location was definitely a highlight, with easy access to the beach and some lovely views, but that alone cannot make up for the other shortcomings.

I had a mixed experience at this resort. The beach views were stunning and the pool area was nice, but I faced some issues with the room cleanliness and comfort. The beach amenities were also not what I expected, given the price I paid. Overall, while the location was excellent, I would hope for better maintenance next time.
