"The overall experience is five star. They were able to help me get some flowers in the room, along with a "make your own margarita" kit which really impressed my partner. However, the margarita kit was supposed to be in the room before we got there, and despite our late arrival, it showed up late which interrupted"

"Came for a weekend getaway with my boyfriend. We were greeting by friendly valet and front desk people. They even offered welcome champagne. We got there early so we had to wait for a room, but it was worth it since we got upgraded to a different room. The views here are worth it. You have access to a pool but we went down to the beach instead. We enjoyed drinks in their lobby area that even had someone playing live music. We dined inside our room for dinner since our view was perfect. Everywhere we went the staff greeted us with smiles and were so nice. Honestly, this was the best hotel stay I've ever had. We're definitely coming back."
