"The hotel is small and family-friendly with welcoming, helpful staff. The decor is really nice and the property is very clean. Our room was spacious and modern with very comfortable beds. The shower is glass and basically in the open, so there's not a lot of privacy. The balconies are beautiful and the balcony doors are very high quality so they keep out a lot of noise from the music by the pool and nearby bars. The pool is stylish and clean and it was great to have hot tubs right beside it. They play loud music by the pool from about 7:30 am, which I found annoying. There is one main restaurant that serves a great breakfast and does a late lunch/dinner service. The portions are small but there are no issues if you order multiple items. There is also a good snack bar. I chose the hotel because I thought it was on a beach. This is technically true, but the sand is very gravelly and it's not suitable for swimming. The water is shallow and silty. You can't go out very far because there is boat activity in the area. I hoped to walk around the local area to see sights and explore, that's not really possible. There's not much to see nearby and a lot of the island is hidden away behind high walls or bushes. It costs $10-$15 US to get a taxi to the town/beaches in the north. Those beaches are nice but crowded. There are some great beach clubs like Mayan with sun loungers and good food. Overall, I found the town tacky and hectic and a lot of the island run-down and depressing."
