Relaxing Pool Area

The outdoor heated pool and jacuzzi were perfect for unwinding after a day at the beach. The newly upgraded sun lounge areas allowed me to soak up the sun in complete comfort. It was a great place to enjoy a leisurely afternoon.

My apartment offered magnificent ocean views. I loved opening the sliding doors at night and listening to the sound of the waves; it was truly nice. The spaciousness of the apartment made me feel right at home.

We had a nice stay at the resort but encountered some issues with air conditioning in our first apartment, which could be quite uncomfortable in the heat. The beachfront location is fantastic, offering beautiful views and easy access to the beach. The pool area and facilities are well-maintained and provide great amenities for relaxation. Overall, while we enjoyed our time, the lack of air conditioning in most apartments is a significant downside and something to consider.

I had a lovely stay at The Rocks Resort! The beachfront views are truly stunning, and I found the unit I stayed in to be modern and neat. Although the shuttle service for dinner was a nice touch, I did notice some areas that could use improvement, particularly in terms of room maintenance. Overall, it was a rejuvenating getaway, but I hope they invest more effort into maintaining the units.

Our stay at The Rocks had its ups and downs. Initially, we faced a disappointing situation with a dirty and outdated apartment. However, after addressing our concerns, we were moved to a fantastic unit that was clean and modern. The location is excellent, with great facilities including a heated pool, but the inconsistency in apartment quality is a concern for future visits.
