7.0/10

While the hotel offers beautiful ocean views and a nice lagoon area, the high prices for everything, including food and activities, left me feeling it wasn't a great value for money. The room was comfortable but outdated, and I was quite disappointed with the luau experience, as the weather negatively impacted it and there were no refunds offered. On the positive side, the hotel's location near great restaurants and shops really added to my stay.

Dining at the on-site restaurant felt overpriced, and the food didn't meet my expectations, especially considering the price.
