Pros: Nice beach

Pros: Beautiful, pristine white beaches; great walking in the mornings
Cons: Overpriced; NO nightlife at all; too many kids

Pros: Beach, service, atmosphere
Cons: External noise easily heard in rooms
Summary: Times does make a difference. The renovations are complete and the hotel is outstanding. We arrived early. The hotel gave us access to everything until the room was ready. They are a bit small and noisy, but what hotel isn't? The room was nicely
