"I do not typically write reviews but this property warranted it and not in a good way.
The property is massive. It’s literally a hike to and from the rooms to the lobby depending on the “tower” they put you in. The good news is there was a tram. The bad news is that it was rarely operational during our stay. When it was working, the air temperature in the cars was sub arctic. So cold we opted to walk despite the distances. Hence my marks for how well the property was maintained. Something that critical for guest comfort on a property that size should be in constant and pristine working order. Speaking of cold, they should try heating the pool. That was a chief complaint of my family and others we chatted with at the pool. Again, it’s about comfort. While I am on about the pool, two times the “pool towel” dispensers were empty and the towels were old and ratty. Even more empty was the service at the pool cabanas and we rented cabanas for three days of our stay. To be fair, one of three days there was “ok” service.
Other than that the rooms were clean and sufficient. However, I feel they were over priced.
Not only do I not recommend this resort. I will never stay there again…"
"Such a beautiful place to stay! Walking into the hotel and seeing the blue Pacific Ocean right in front of you was breathtaking. The hotel had gorgeous gardens all around the property. We enjoyed the complimentary snorkel equipment on the final day. The room service twice a day will definitely spoil you!"

"We loved our stay at this stunning retreat high up enough for a sweeping view to the ocean and daily rainbows. It was literally like being in heaven. The home is well appointed with everything one needs and the host was responsive when needed. My favorite part was waking up early enough to watch the day arrive out the floor to ceiling window wall! Thank you for opening your home!"
