small room ignored emails
Our room was quite small, and there was almost no space to unpack my clothes. there was hanging space for only a few items, and it was hard to reach. the room felt very cold. I could not turn off the air con. upon checking out, i discovered i was overcharged by nearly $100. i emailed the hotel multiple times over several days. they ignored all the emails.

mixed experience at this hotel

additional rental umbrella rental resort fee
the location is quite central, making it convenient to access nearby restaurants.
I encountered a significant problem with the daily resort fee. it does not cover umbrellas. These require an additional rental fee. staff declined umbrella rentals on two days of my stay, which shortened my beach time considerably. i expected this matter to be addressed promptly.
