    Took forever to get our drinks and our waiter didn’t even realize they hadn’t come. It’s a beautiful restaurant but the service is very slow and absent

    Was disappointed- the food was quite marginal while the prices are high We stayed at the hotel last year and always had great meals However the quality seems to have decreased

    Comida nada espectacular. Íbamos más por estar comiendo a la par del mar, pero a esa hora cierran esa parte, así que ni eso pudimos.

    Really like the lunch menu options and flavors of everything we had. Burger, shrimp tacos, tuna tacos, pizza (a little too cheesy), different salads, We sat in the restaurant rather than poolside. Service was great. Note the dinner menu is different from lunch….we didn’t like it nearly as much as the lunch menu.

    Location and ambience are gorgeous. Food is below average making it not at all worth the cost.
