My family of 5 stayed at this hotel during the 4th of July week prior to a cruise. I specifically chose the Tresor one bedroom suite to accommodate our family of 5 and provide ample space prior to our cruise. This room category was wonderful for that purpose. There was 1 king bed and a queen pull out. We were able to request a crib for our youngest as well. The kitchen as well appointed and more than adequate! In addition the resort was beautiful, large, had excellent food options and a wonderful beach. My only complaint was that we also booked this room category to have a washer and dryer. With a family a 5 and a cruise planned, I wanted the option to be able to do some loads of laundry prior to our cruise and after beach days. Unfortunately our washer was broken. I spoke with the front desk and guest services multiple times and was told each time that someone would be up to fix the washer. However, no one came by the fix the washer. I was assured someone would stop by to look at it by our last day at the hotel. We stayed 3 days. No one came by despite me speaking to the front desk on multiple occasions, each day of our stay! I paid over $1000/night to stay in this room for this feature. Ultimately no one came by to fix the washer. In addition, our housekeeper took waters from our minibar resulting in a charge. The front desk staff were very apologetic and removed the charge. However, in combination with the washer issue, we were disappointed that for such a luxurious and famous hotel we had to deal with these issues during our stay. Also, had I known our washer was not going to work, I would have booked a less expensive room without one. Seeing how beautiful and well appointed this hotel was I would have loved to give a higher review rating but the customer service and guest relations were just not there. Read less

What an amazing resort. I traveled with my family, and this hotel had something for everyone. The pools are beautiful, and being oceanfront was ideal. We especially enjoyed the kids pool which ended up being fun for us all. The rooms were immaculate and service was 5 star. Definitely returning next summer.

Here’s a polished version of your message: "Elisa was great! She took care of all the details so we could enjoy our beautiful view. We will definitely be back. The food was also delicious and served hot." Let me know if you'd like to make it more formal, enthusiastic, or add anything else!

Tomas and Tomas (there’s two of them) are fantastic. Was incredibly accommodating despite the larger crowd. Ask for either of them if you make the visit.
