Whole facility is in need of up date repairs. Our room had broken tile around refrigerator. TV didn’t work and other too complicated. Room could have been cleaner. Staff was not helpful. Staff was going to call when room read no call . Will not stay there again. Way too much for what you get. Stayed at another hotel before going to island and there was a good breakfast not coupons that are very limited. Also other hotel was same price and was wonderful. Hot tub was not clean either.

Beware

During check in there were four couple waiting to check in behind us the clerk told a gentleman that was sitting doing something on the computer that there were more guest that needed checked and he said so!! Very unprofessional to say the least . The cleaning staff was very rude would push cleaning carts in front of you and not even acknowledge you were there. The room was dirty cobwebs hanging around dead bugs on the walls there was a piece of the roof on the balcony that looked like it was going to fall off the sheets on a king size bed were for a queen so just made it to the sides. I think if the staff would take some pride in their jobs and hotel it would be a great place to stay. The view is amazing that is the only thing this place has going for it
