The hotel is spectacular, BUT, it is not well maintained. You see mold on the balconies, the fence around the pool is missing pieces, the shower to rinse your feet when you come from the beach doesn't word… things like that you don’t expect from a hotel like this. It is expensive and you would think they would keep it in exceptional condition. So that was disappointing. If you stay for a week like we did, they will only clean your room every other day… the two restaurants are low on staff so service was slow. We might go back because the hotel itself is worth visiting. A lot of VIPs have stayed there, including presidents, a lot of history.
