the staff were attentive and friendly . the valet parking was also very efficient, which i appreciated after a long journey.
I found the music in the bar area was quite loud during check-in. It made conversing a little difficult. directional signs around the hotel were not sufficient, so i wandered aimlessly trying to find a restaurant.

The hotel offers very modern and fancy decor. I liked the shuttle bus. It took me to a local sandy beach. I found a nice beach club restaurant there. Staff was awesome, and they gave great service. The sunset view from my room are great.
The hotel is still new. I noticed not enough directional signs around the hotel. It made finding restaurants or the way to the beach difficult.
