Tropical Suites Hotel
Very clean room. Staff are super accommodating, polite and friendly. It is a bit pricey for the room We ate elsewhere as it is expensive to eat and drink here. Toilet seat needs attention. Our coffee maker sometimes worked and sometimes did not. We had an ocean view. Nice pool area.

Red Frog Beach Island Resort
Staff were great, Oliver took extra care of us and issues that arose. Great location, pool and beach were great. Using their shuttle to get around was helpful as the staff would point out sloths or red frogs and share information.
