We had a wonderful time at this hotel with breathtaking views that you can't miss. The staff was really helpful, especially when we needed assistance with reservations for local activities. But, the food at breakfast and lunch was just okay, and the lack of good AC in common areas was a downside. Also, guests should be aware of the steep climb to get to the hotel from the beach or town.
