Acceptable Stay with Some Issues

beautiful beachlong waitfood restriction
The beach was beautiful.
Ordering food by the pool took a very long time. We waited 45 minutes for fries and chicken nuggets , and another time 30 minutes for two pizzas. It was also disappointing that we could not take food to the room.
