While the hotel boasts stunning views and a spacious layout, our stay was marred by noise disturbances and a lack of attention to detail. Although the staff were friendly and accommodating, the overall dining experience and management seem to need improvement. It's a beautiful property, but the execution leaves a lot to be desired.

I enjoyed my stay at this hotel, but there were definitely some areas that could use improvement. The rooms were spacious and clean, offering stunning views. The service was generally helpful, but not always consistent. While I found the dining options to be limited, the a la carte restaurants provided better quality meals. There were some amenities that were great, but the overall experience felt lacking in certain aspects for a supposed 5-star hotel.

My stay at Blue Marine was enjoyable overall, but there were several areas that could use improvement, especially concerning the food and service consistency. The room was spacious and the sea view was stunning, but we faced some issues with the dining experience that fell short of 5-star expectations. While the animation team made the experience fun, the food quality left a bit to be desired, and the location was a bit more isolated than I anticipated.

The hotel boasts lovely rooms and a beautiful location, but unfortunately, the dining and entertainment options fell short of expectations. While the beachfront is nice and the amenities could be appealing if better managed, the overall experience didn't quite match the 5-star classification. Value for money is definitely a concern here.

While the hotel boasts beautiful views and a nice beach, my experience was tainted by several issues. The staff, although pleasant, were overwhelmed, and the dining options did not meet expectations.
