I had a stunning view of the attractive hotel pool complex, its private beach, the rest of the bay, the town & a backdrop of very impressive mountains from my room. However, some aspects of the room, like the wall sockets not compatible with square pin plugs and the absence of bedside sockets for charging phones without unplugging lights, showed signs of aging. The access to private club facilities was a nice touch.
