“The circular structure, though unique, may present room challenges; some rooms disappoint, but the rooftop lounge and rotating Spinners restaurant stand out. Beach cabanas add a layer of exclusivity, though claiming one demands early-morning dedication, and dining at Bongo's is essential. While some may find it overrated, its beachfront location and distinctive design offer undeniable appeal.”
