The positives about this property were: nice pool and hot tub; excellent view and right on the beach; half the staff we dealt with were cordial and welcoming. The negatives were: the other half of the staff we dealt with seemed like it was a chore to interact with us; our room was a "Deluxe", but would be standard at most other hotels; it was ok, but the walls were marked-up need to be repainted; the bed was only a double and slanted toward our heads (my girlfriend and I slept with our heads at the foot of the bed); there is no refrigerator; there was a light in the ceiling that would not shut off, which made it hard to sleep. The breakfast that comes with your room reservation is average. My overall impression was that this was a really nice hotel when it opened 9 or 10 years ago, but owenership/management has implemented cost cutting measures that have allowed it to "slip" a little. Not a horrible experience, but I would not stay here again. We toured a few other hotels that are nicer and give you more for your money.

The property was clean and the front desk staff were polite.
The outside area besides the pool had loud music playing, only 3 loungers within the actual pool as visible within the photo. The remaining seating was wire with no cushions so very uncomfortable after 10 minutes, I was expecting at lease a relaxing poolside location that would enable you to lounge by.

Check in was fine. The food was pretty good! The staff wasn’t rude, but they certainly were not very hospitable. The WiFi was very spotty and kept going in and out. The beach was so dirty. The worst part was check out. They are a cash only hotel. They do not accept credit cards and this is NOT POSTED anywhere. I had to walk all over town in the pouring rain to try and find an ATM. When I did, it was out of cash. I ended up having to wire myself cash and go to a western Union pickup station. Was a nightmare.

Newly furbished. Sea front. Staff are very accomodating. Beside a dive shop. However, the beach part area of the property was not being cleaned. They should make the initiative to develop, maintain, clean their most important asset, the beach. Curfew currently is at 10pm :(

iCove wasn't bad, but for the money I expected more.
Room: be wary of booking the cheapest room type, as they're windowless, which is OK in a budget hotel but not for a resort. Definitely recommend upgrading to the next room type. Hotel doesn't allow any outside food or drinks in the hotel and to that end doesn't provide a refrigerator, which is ridiculous for that price. Bed is very comfortable and whole room is clean and modern, very close to pictures. Minimum of toiletries provided, warm and powerfall rainfall shower. Wifi was down across the entire hotel when I stayed but connection to network was a decent strength.
Staff: check-in guy couldn't be less interested but some staff offered greetings and were friendly enough.
Food: free breakfast was pleasant, nice to sit by the pool area and eat.
Hotel: Pool was attractive, nice place to relax although i felt they didn't make enough of the bar area. There is a happy hour (3-6pm or 3-7pm).
Overall it's not bad, but a bit soulless. If they did a promo on the deluxe rooms I might go back, but I'm not going to rush...

stayed shortly after opening a few years ago so decided to check it out again and wasn't disappointed. Has been maintained well and friendly staff. Seems to stay booked regularly. Will stay again when in the neighborhood.

We had a nice stay. The hotel was OK. The rooms are fine for two persons but too small for an extra bed. The area is nice with several attractions and good restaurants. My daughter (8) was very fond of the inflatable island.

(+)Soft sand underwater/no rocks. Super clean pool with FINEST sunbathing chairs (sits in 2 inches of water)ever. Room was large, bed soft, many cable choices, wifi an 8 of 19 stars. Great reception desk, guards do wonders parking. Night bartender and breakfast chef are tops of thier craft! (-)Not pleased with kids running the halls at 6am. But besides that nuisance I'd use iCove again for sure #bodyguard.inc
