It's a nice enough HOTEL, in my opinion it's not a Boutique RESORT as claimed. It is extremely quiet, if that's what you are looking for, this is the perfect place. Compared to other hotels in the area the price is very expensive for what you get. Our room was small though it had a great view, clean though some... more

I took my mother here for her 60th birthday present, based on the consistently good reviews I'd read here. I'm assuming all the negative reviews get reported as "inappropriate," because mine is gone (nothing inappropriate about it), and there's no way the majority of guests are happy with this place. Yes, it's reasonably priced, and yes, it's a boutique hotel,... more

This hotel is not for people looking for the constant activities provided by large resort style hotels. I notice that many of the people reviewing are young adults complaining of boredom who were hoping to participate in drunken pool games in the afternoon and a conga line in the evening. This hotel is not for this type of traveller. If... more

Booked a suite room and found it to be clean but in need of many updates, ask to change rooms to A14 and this is a great room that has been updated. The food is very good as I am on a gluten free diet and the staff made every attemt to help with this, the staff are glue that... more

I am not one to write reviews on any vacations, good or bad. However I feel the public must know about this one! I have compiled a list quick and easy for you to read and make your decision. I personally say not to go here at all! Go to the resort next door, or anywhere else! 1. NO BEACH!... more

Hotel food was below average, repetative and often had to resort to just eating the bread Would not book all inclusive again due to this experience Promised hotel's own 'private beach' -there was not a beach at the hotel as it had been washed away. There was a public beach next door but that was busy and small. Not what... more

What a change !!!! I have been in this Hotel numerous time and always like it, stuff was great, food good, extremely quiet placer and romantic. That all gone. Upon arriving to the hotel, I was told that they have only one room available, later I have found out that hotel is totally empty. Forget about the prices the advertise... more

My husband and I went to this hotel after reading great reviews. If you are looking for a quiet, simple, not very fancy place & don't need many amenities you could like this hotel. We paid the price for an all inclusive apartment suite with pool/ocean view and when we arrived there our suite did NOT have pool or ocean... more

My fiance and I stayed at this hotel in September 2007 after looking through all the hotels in Trip Advisor and the reviews they gave we seemed hopeful from the start that it was what we were looking for.. and it was. We booked the holiday itself with onthebeach.com. We are happy to say how brilliant our holiday was, the... more
