Rosewood

Just got back from 4 day getaway, stayed on beach side in oceanview. We stuck with the room despite being upgraded to beachfront suite by FHR amenities as wanted the larger space with my son (pull out sofa instead of rollaway). Rooftop deck with pool was nice but we all missed the beachfront room too much that, if go back, definitiely that is way to go. Saw clear improvements from September "refresh" especially in food. The quality of food was clear step up from a year ago. Service is still just phenomenal, anticpating needs, learning from your habits (butler brought beer and drinks and snacks up to us on deck third day in late afternoon because we had asked for it last two days). This resort is really humming and deserves kudos, only downside is it was much busier than last time. You don't notice at all as so spread out and private most of time, except for beach club area which was very crowded comared to a year ago. But still no problem getting chairs, etc set up, just busier feel.
