limited choices bad service
the beach access was direct. it was good to walk straight from the hotel onto the sand.
the food at dinner was a real issue. the buffet barely changed from night to night. i got really tired of the limited choices. the seafood restaurant charged way too much for what you get and the service wasn't great there either.
