Bedding was the worst I’ve ever slept on. Ants were swarming by the refrigerator. Little room for belonging. Very sad bathroom. Smells from sewer was overwhelming. About a mile down the beach is a waste treatment facility which may have explained the smell. Beach was beautiful like in the pictures but sea was difficult to get into and out of due to slope of sand. Sand is a bit too soft for running/walking. Rocks jutted up in unexpected places. Yoga class was excellent. A bit too hot for tennis. Dinner at the Italian Restaurant was terrible.

I found the rest pretty much accurate as of a couple years ago. Haven’t been there since.

Quote: “CONS & THINGS TO KNOW … The resort is tucked away in what seems like the middle of nowhere”

I don’t see how those can both be true of the same location.
