Amazing hotel stay!

I stayed six nights. Carlos, Jose, and Elizabeth were wonderful. Elizabeth showed us the hotel. She also gave excellent dining recommendations. Restaurant Mares had piri piri chicken that tasted delicious.
The room service menu seemed very expensive. I thought the options were a little limited.

The hotel is near a beach. Some restaurants are a short walk away. The marina is decently close to the hotel. It's away from the strip and provides a quiet visit.

Underwhelming Stay, Potential Not Fully Realized
easy accessslow serviceworn carpets
The location was decent. It allowed easy access to nearby attractions.
The service was slow and somewhat disorganized. The wait times for drinks at the bar were excessive. On one occasion, I waited over 20 minutes for a simple order. The room décor felt dated and did not match the 5-star rating I anticipated. Brown tones dominated the interior. I also found the carpets to be worn, which detracted from the overall impression.
