The pictures are real, the place is very nice, gave it a 3 because the furniture is at the end of use, very uncomfortable and should be replaced but you'll end up spending most of your time on the balcony. Stunning views of the ocean but the beach is very rocky with black sand which I guess explains why the other guests converge on the pool area. If you want a seat at the pool, designate someone to come out with towels and books at 5 am because by 7, there are no seats...no people either but no seats! There's a great beach front restaurant right next door, the best rice w chicken I've ever had and I'm from Puerto Rico! Also, check out the Green Room, great food, live music, more sophisticated crowd...let's just say that the strip is probably a favorite for college kids;) One last bit of advice, DO NOT RENT A CAR AT THE AIRPORT! They are crooks and every tourist we spoke to had the same or worse stories to tell! I rented with Dollar, 4 days was booked at $120.00 but they charged me $360.00! The scam is that they require that you buy their insurance, they will not take yours!
