The hotel is small but nice and clean. The staff is friendly, but management needs to work on better training to improve customer service for their wait staff in the pool area and Cayeye restaurant. The service was terrible. Everytime I needed something I had to go and order directly at the bar, including chasing the staff around or go myself to the bar dor evey little thing, even to pay my bill. They bring the food and hurry to leave before we could check whether we needed something else or if something was missing. I was looking forward to relaxing at the pool and being able to order some food and drinks for me and my family. But instead, I had to be in the lookout for the staff to be able to order every little thing like water, salt, ketchup and even to go and sign my invoice. The pool and restaurant were not crowded, so it’s not a matter of capacity… they are just clearly not trained for this job. They walk around without looking whether any guest wants something… they just don’t look and pretend not to care. Instead they kept chitchatting among themselves around the bar. Other than that, the hotel is nice and a good place to spend the weekend.

Dirty Beach
I booked this Marriot because it is directly on the beach however there are NO lounge chairs, instead they have cheap plastic upright chairs, so it was too uncomfortable to enjoy the beach. I had to rent a cabana by the pool for three days. This was annoying and the beach was extremely crowded and dirty. The water was dark brown not like clear Carribean water.
