The hotel tends to have a lot of extra fees for various amenities at the hotel, even internet, extra coffee and late checkout. If you're concerned about the add-ons to your bill, it's a good idea to verify whether or not a service is complimentary before you request it.
The resort is spread out and some of the rooms are a bit farther from the lobby and beach than others. Most guests found the walk to be pleasant but if you have limited mobility, you may want to request the hotel's complimentary shuttle to take you to where you need to go.
Housekeeping and room service tends to be slow. Guests have had to call to check in on the status of their requests.
