The hotel has a tropical feel with its lush greenery and jungle decor, waterfall hot tub and tiki hut pool—however, the pool was a little cold and the swim-up bar wasn’t open during our stay, which was a little disappointing. The rooms are spacious and clean, a little outdated but nice with a large bathroom and comfortable beds. We ate at the hotel restaurant on Wednesday; they offered a delicious buffet at a good value.

Hotel was beautiful, breakfast was comprehensive and delicious, hotel shuttle didn't make the 11:30pm pickup so we had to call the hotel for them to send him back. 4 stars because of the shuttle, otherwise 5 stars.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Room smelled stale and out of three days they only clean room once! Used their laundry service and got ripped off horribly in my opinion as was a small bag of laundry and they charged me massive where I could have bought 7 expensive bottles of detergent at home! Canadian! Restaraunt is stupid expensive and paid huge USA for a chicken curry dish with an iced tea which is like way more in Canadian! Won’t ever stay at a Hilton hotel ever again especially after seeing they would t allow ICE agents to stay there, if people knew the corruption from these illegals they be all for their removal
