Résumé des avis

The friendliness and dedication of the staff are highly praised, as is the exceptional beauty of the grounds, its lush vegetation, and exotic wildlife. The quality of the food at both the buffet and à la carte restaurants is frequently highlighted, complemented by generally satisfactory cleanliness and efficient shuttle services. However, some guests occasionally mention a lack of variety in the food, and the hilly terrain can sometimes make getting around difficult for some.

The beach and the staff saved the stay
La plage et le personnel sauvent le séjour

The pools are unsanitary, and the buffet lacks variety and is quite ordinary for a 4.5-star hotel. There are many opportunities to observe birds and animals on the grounds (monkeys, coatis, raccoons, etc.). The shuttle service is essential and efficient. The room access system using the wristband is well-designed.

Les piscines sont insalubres, manque de variété au buffet qui est assez ordinaire pour un 4.5 étoiles. Possibilités d'observer beaucoup d'oiseaux et d'animaux sur le site (singes, coatis, ratons...) Service de navette essentiel et efficace. Le système d'accès à la chambre avec le bracelet est bien pensé.

bof

Very small and limited buffet. Redundant. No entertainment, elevator music in the lobby and restaurant (to die for). We seek shade. Beach with locals, bar and restrooms far away.

Buffet très petit et limité. Redondant. Aucune animation, musique d'ascenseur au lobby et restaurant (à mourir). On cherche l'ombre. Plage avec les locaux, bar et toilettes loin.
