My stay was wonderful overall, with spacious and clean rooms that provided a fantastic ocean view from the balcony. The staff was very attentive and friendly, making me feel welcome throughout my visit. However, some dining options were lackluster, and I found the staff's approach to be a bit too persistent at times. The pool area was a lovely retreat on a hot day, but the location had its downsides, being a bit out of the way and surrounded by construction.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. On one side, the rooms were spacious and clean, providing a great option for relaxation. However, the service left much to be desired, especially regarding how they handled a significant issue we faced. The location is convenient, but be prepared for some challenges with the surrounding Tuk Tuk drivers. Dining was adequate but lacked variety. Overall, it's a decent choice for families but not without its issues.

My stay at this hotel was quite lovely overall. The suite we booked was spacious and well-equipped, coming with a hot tub that truly elevated our experience. The staff went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable and taken care of, which was a huge plus. However, I found that breakfast options didn't quite meet the expectations of a five-star establishment, leaving room for improvement. Additionally, the location required a little effort to find but once there, it was absolutely worth it.

I had a fantastic experience overall, especially with the spacious Waves suite that offered great value for money. The staff really made my stay enjoyable, but the hotel could improve on the cleanliness and maintenance of certain areas. The dining options were satisfactory, but the location provided stunning views and a decent atmosphere. However, I'd recommend more sunbeds at the pool area for a more enjoyable experience.
