What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Very nice Dining Options

We truly enjoyed eating at both the pool area and the Morimoto restaurant during our stay. The food was nothing short of extraordinary, particularly the ahi appetizer and cocktails by the pool. Every meal we had felt like a gourmet experience!

Spacious and Modern Rooms

Our ocean view room was impressively large, featuring two spacious balconies and a comfortable sitting area. It felt very modern and well-maintained compared to other places I've stayed. I appreciated the thoughtful design and cleanliness of the room.

Amazing Pool Experience

The pool area was a fantastic place to relax. Even though it was a bit crowded, I managed to secure a lounge chair for sunbathing. The poolside service was great, which made our downtime even more enjoyable.

Great Entertainment in the Lobby Bar

We had a wonderful time at the Study, the lobby bar, where we enjoyed fantastic entertainment. The atmosphere was lively and really added to our experience at the hotel. I loved spending evenings there with friends, sipping on delicious cocktails.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel, highlighted by exceptional service and the friendly staff who really went the extra mile to make our experience memorable. The rooms were modern and most comfortable, providing a lovely view of the pool and ocean. However, I found the dim lighting in the hallways a bit unsettling, which could use some improvement. Overall, it feels like a great place to unwind and enjoy a blended ambiance of sophistication and warmth.
