"We received very good service, and the rooms and pool were excellent. The only drawback was that the main restaurant was being removed and eventually replaced, so the on-site dining was limited. However, we ended up renting a golf cart and found terrific dining."

"Good location as a base to explore the peninsula, close to shopping, other beaches, diving. Private beach was a coconut's throw from the balcony to the caribbean. Awoke to striking sunrises and a stiff consistent breeze offset the warmer temperatures."
