My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. While the oceanfront location was breathtaking and the grounds were beautifully maintained, I was disappointed by the overall condition of the room. It was clean but didn't match the promises made online. Plus, the dining options felt limited with a higher price tag than what I expected. Overall, the stay was decent but could have been better.
