What a disappointing trip. My husband and I were looking forward to a few days enjoying sitting on a balcony watching the ocean. Traveling with another couple, we had both reserved ocean room bungalows. Our friends had a beautiful ocean view while we were placed in the cabin behind them with a view of a wall with some tropical trees. When I checked at the desk, I was given a strange story about our room being an ocean view though in a different category. (I speak French so my confusion in her explanation had nothing to do with language). I asked if our room rate would be discounted. The answer was no. We paid the very same as our friends with the ocean view. About an hour later, the hotel offered us a villa located quite a distance away that did not have A/C. We declined given that we were in the hot season. The grounds of the resort are beautiful and the food was good, though it was hard to get a glass of white wine. For a resort like this, it was surprising that white wine was not readily available. When I asked for rose instead, they had a half glass left and gave that to me at no charge, promising that by dinner time (2 hours late) they would have at least one bottle of white, one bottle of rose, and one bottle of red available. All in all, we would not return to this hotel. Our purpose for going was to enjoy that ocean view, which we did not get.
