Reviews and Ratings
The hotel rooms were neat and tidy, though a bit expensive. I had issues with the AC remote control not working, which was inconvenient. On the bright side, the Wi-Fi was strong and reliable.
I was lucky to get a pool villa, as the standard rooms seemed to have some issues like wear and tear, broken facilities, and poor drainage. The private villa with a plunge pool was fantastic thanks to the upgrade, but I wouldn't have paid the high price otherwise.
The hotel rooms are clean and quiet, though be prepared for mosquitoes at night. They are spacious and comfortable, housed in several two-story buildings on the property. The service is excellent, with hospitable and smiling staff welcoming you warmly. The location is relatively close to the airport but far from the city center, requiring a taxi to explore outside the resort. Overall, a peaceful retreat with friendly service but the location may not be ideal for city exploration.
The hotel has nice and spacious rooms, but privacy can be an issue due to noise. The service was exceptional, with friendly and accommodating staff. The location is isolated, requiring transportation for dining options outside.
The hotel experience was incredible, with spacious and clean rooms, super friendly and accommodating staff, and a convenient location with some minor drawbacks. Despite a few issues, I had an overall fantastic stay.
I had a pleasant stay at the hotel. The rooms were nicely clean every day, and I even got a free mini-bar on the first day, which was a nice touch. The proximity to the pool was convenient, but the noise from adjacent rooms somewhat affected privacy.
During our stay at the hotel, we found the rooms to be clean and welcoming, with a spacious bathroom that impressed us. The staff were friendly and always ready to assist, creating a buzzing atmosphere surrounded by nature. However, the dining experience left something to be desired, as the food was not up to par compared to other resorts. The location was lovely, offering various watersport activities and a spacious area for relaxation, although it was quite busy. Overall, a comfortable stay with some minor drawbacks.
The hotel's location is ideal right on the beach, but a bit far from the main street. The rooms are spacious, especially the large bathroom with a shower and central bathtub. Service was friendly, but the promised complimentary fruit basket never arrived. The fantastic beach location comes with knowledgeable lifeguards, although it's a bit isolated from other facilities. The dining experience at Azure Beach Club offers delicious variety, particularly the Asian Grill and beach lounge with a rock bar for sundown cocktails.
The hotel offers clean and beautiful rooms that are well above par for a resort like this. The service is excellent, with dedicated and professional staff. While the location has some drawbacks like being far from the city, it shows potential for improvement. The dining experience is delicious, although the selection could be broader. Overall, a worthwhile stay with fantastic service and comfortable rooms.
