Hospitality at this RC is above and beyond! We stayed for my birthday and staff went out of the way with amenities and kindness at every turn. Special thanks to Ben on Club Level who was so kind, always remembered our names, and gave great birthday suggestions (kayaking in the mangroves was amazing!) and our lovely cleaner Cece who was so helpful with everything we needed in the room. Everyone was warm, kind and professional. A great stay and look forward to returning!

Friendly and efficient service right from the start. Check in was great - had a room ready early since I took red-eye flight. Room was large and with great amenities. Water bottles were plentiful and complimentary. The hotel restaurant was great - food was well prepared. Highly recommend this hotel
