Having stayed at maybe 50 Marriotts and 15 JW Marriotts across the world, I agree completely--this property is over-the-top spectacular in terms of beauty and service.

Even if you have to pay for the breakfast buffet--do it--it is THE BEST breakfast offering we have EVER enjoyed anywhere. And not just at Marriotts. As an aside--Marriott policy is that no elites get free breakfast at any resorts. However, breakfast was included for us--I was Platinum. Furthermore, I have no idea why this hotel overrides Marriott's stingy "no free breakfast" policy--it's probably because of that service ethic I mentioned....

On the beach are women masseuses who will provide massages for just $10/hour. At that price, you can afford three per day!!!
