I loved the cove of our Casa Marina beach. The water is gorgeous. Service at the bars is good, drinks are good (I only had a few), nice staff.
Waiter staff was excellent! Food at buffet was fantastic! We loved the buffet - fruit, international options, variety, healthy . . . Coffee and wine were great! We loved the Select seating area and service there. Nice seat by the water to eat in quiet surroundings.
Small coffee shop is good too.
Adults only is good - but there were a few kids on the beach during the day.
Entertainment in the outdoor theater was wonderful!!!
The grounds and landscaping is pretty and well-maintained.
Spa - massage was good but the hot tub was weird and cool temperature.
Only issues-
* We didn't get a beach chair - need a few more.
* We needed an umbrella for the afternoon at the beach but there weren't any available.
* We left beach towels on a chair for just an hour and it was gone - we reported to the desk immediately, but we were not allowed to get another one.
* The restaurant we made reservations at - near to our room: it was not very good food. It was disappointing. The buffet was much better.
* Shower water was cool and a bit warm - but not hot.
* Guest was smoking IN the pool and using plastic water bottle to put butts! Is this allowed? I think there should be a rule against this. She was also playing music and talking very loudly. Is that allowed?
OVERALL - We really enjoyed this place and our few days there.
