"If you plan to spend most of your time on the beach or playing at night...this property on the edge of Copa...is attractive for its access to restaurants and shopping."

Get a deluxe for the ocean view or risk a vista of a neighboring wall.
Lonely Planet Lonely Planet
"The beach-facing location is the real draw. The standard rooms are too dark and cramped, so it's not worth staying here unless you book one of the deluxe rooms with those unobstructed ocean views." Full review
