While the staff was very friendly and helpful, the restaurant was very pricat, but the food was not worth price. The rooms were very clean and comfortable. Overall, the resort for a non-smokers they would love it.

However as a cigar smoker, I had two options; to stand in front of the resort or sit in one of two chairs by the beach access. The chairs of shame. Both were completely unexpectable. The average cigar takes at least an hour to smoke. So, standing in front was not going to happen. The two chairs of shame had everyone who wanted to access the beach walk by complaining about the smoke.

This was ridiculous. Also, I enjoy drinking Scotch with my cigar, but there was no table to place my glass. This was a of revenue for the resort since I refused put myself through it. Had they had proper smoking section, I would have bought several glasses of Scotch throughout the night until I finished my cigar.

My wife and I scouted around the around the pool and bar area. They clearly had several areas that could have accommodated smokers and they would have increased their revenues.

As much as we like enjoy the resort, next time we are in the area, we will look for a more cigar-friendly resort.
