The walls are incredibly thin and the music outside is sooooo loud late into the night. The resort is beautiful, but definitely not a place to stay if you’re looking for peace and quiet. The room service staff was wonderful. The staff around the pool was great as well.

This hotel has been renovated and is in tiptop condition. The facility is beautiful, the staff is friendly, and the food is wonderful. It is a little noisy at night for those of us who like to go to bed early but then it is very quiet in the morning for those of us who like to get up early.
