눉When we returned from dinner, there was a problem with the electronic door lock to our room. Staff members were unable to unlock the door. We were placed in another room for the night but we were without any of our things. There was no compensation for this very distressing inconvenience.
눇The breakfast buffet was out standing: cooked to order omelets, crepes, and most anything else you can think imagine. I was disappointed that the beach is not close to the hotel (>700 m) .

눉The air conditioning was not available in our room, only heat. As it was 80+ degrees outside, we wanted to cool the room off. The maintenance people came to check on things right away and explained their system was still on the "heat" mode. A pesty complaint, and it wasn't "uncomfortable", we just like it cooler. Additionally, there are not many options of places for lunch. The pool bar has a nice menu but the wonderful staff (bar tender was super nice and helpful!) was overwhelmed and it took 2+hours to have a "quick" bite to eat. Also, the hotel has LOADS of amenities - pool, spa, gym, kids entertainment, beach trail, use of bikes, etc. but the reception desk does not make you aware of everything. You kind of have to figure things out yourself. This could be improved w a welcome packet.
눇The location is beautiful...a short walk to a gorgeous beach and a wonderful trail to walk/run. The breakfast and dinner were delicious, especially the fish. There were loads of choices and plenty of food. We stayed 2 nights and each dinner had different selections. My 20 year old son LOVED the breakfast!
