2. The beach was amazing and for the people who complain about the lack of chairs, yes there are many day beds and cabanas that must be reserved around the pool but there are a ton of chairs on the grass.

3. Also- One person in our party felt that Blade, the sushi bar, had less some less than fresh fish, the chef lacked creativity when asked for sushi outside the ordering menu, and was not overall impressed with it.

4. There is a free gym you can use but it is a poor one lacking essential equipment.

"Food and beverage improving; service still pretty bad " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/29/2009 Vote

5. My only issues were the lack of service (if i am spending $500 for a room + service fee on everything, you can at least get my bags out of the car at the valet, fill my water/ask me if I'd like another drink at the restaurants) and being 'nickeled and dimed' ($10 for the gym, $14 for chairs at the beach, $18 for umbrellas).

8. Why should I spent huge amounts of cash and others walk in and take sun loungers making the place much busier4) Rooms are nice, but lacking in storage space.

"Glamorous and Glitzy (But) " Read full review on TripAdvisor 7/20/2009 Vote

9. 5) Poor lack of communication between the hotel staff, we were charged for renting a cabana at the pool and then they try to charge us again during checkout.

"Terrible Service - Charged 3 dollars for hot tap water " Read full review on TripAdvisor 7/13/2009 Vote

10. The food at the restaurants was very good, but again, the service was lacking.
