I had a great time at the resort, enjoying the spacious apartment and the fantastic location just a few steps from the beach and local shops. While the apartment was clean and well-equipped, it could use a deeper cleaning, especially in hidden corners. The management started off friendly but became a bit abrupt when I raised some concerns. Overall, it was a solid experience, but I might hesitate to return due to the service issues I encountered.

We had a fantastic stay at Aqua Vista. The ocean view from our apartment was stunning, and the amenities like the pool and spa were top-notch. The staff was incredibly welcoming and took service to a whole new level. However, managing the air conditioning in one of the rooms was a bit tricky, and it did get cooler than expected. Overall, I can't recommend this place enough for a relaxing getaway.
