Inconsistent Service Experiences

inattentive staff premature bill
The pool area was a welcome space with direct beach access.
The restaurant staff seemed more attentive to corporate event attendees, neglecting other guests. At breakfast, when a large corporate group left, the waiting staff vanished completely. Dinner service ended abruptly as the bill was presented prematurely by staff eager to clear up.
