We had a relaxing couple of weeks at this resort, which is perfect for those looking to unwind rather than party. The food was surprisingly good, with fresh options and tasty daily specials. The staff were generally polite, but there were a few younger ones who could improve. While the beach isn't sandy and has some maintenance issues, the property has potential and plans for upgrades. Overall, it was a lovely holiday, and we would think about returning.
