I had a pleasant stay at the resort, enjoying the clean and spacious rooms with comfortable amenities. The location is fantastic, being just a short walk from the beach and nearby restaurants. However, the dining experience didn't quite meet my expectations, particularly during breakfast. While the pool area was lovely, the service varied greatly, which was a bit disappointing.
