We visited the restaurant in 2022 after Kitchen Nightmares and to be honest there's not much improvement from the kitchen. I honestly only ordered the oysters to check if they were fresh and they were. However, freshly shucked oysters and a wedge of lemon isn't a hard dish. Most of the people at the table ordered the steak (and I did try it) and it was drowning in unseasoned butter. DROWNING. Very overpriced for a chewy, unseasoned steak that desperately called for a lifeguard. You're more likely to drown in their steak dish with cholesterol than you are by water in the ocean view pool. We also waited a very very very long time (and I was stupid enough to ask for my oysters at the same time as everyone else's mains). I'm only giving 3 stars because the waitress (same one on kitchen nightmares) was incredibly polite, apologetic, kept drinks topped up at reasonable prices due to our wait, and kept checking with the kitchen where our food was. Couldn't fault her service and felt very sorry for her. The pool and ocean view is also beautiful. I would recommend staying at the hotel, but avoiding the restaurant at all costs unless you want a drink. If you do dare to order at their restaurant, bring a lifeguard.
The delayed review is I usually yelp-bomb every couple of years as I go through photos and experiences on my phone. I took personal photos of my loved ones out the front of the pool which I don't post for privacy reasons however the food wasn't picture worthy. I do recommend people read the most recent reviews in case there are improvements. For such a hotel with pretty views, I really hope it does improve.
All my reviews are standardised to the following star ratings:
1. Customer service I.e. friendly, easy to book, etc.
