This resort spa offers a lovely escape with a great beachside location and spacious, clean rooms. I found the staff to be warm and welcoming, which really enhanced my stay. However, the dining options fell a bit short with the breakfast variety. The pool is inviting, but the Wi-Fi situation could use some improvement since it isn't free, which is a bit disappointing.
