My stay at Indigo Blue was a mixed bag. The apartments were beautifully renovated with stunning ocean views and spacious living areas. However, the customer service left much to be desired, which really dampened the overall experience. I encountered rude staff who were unhelpful at times, making me feel quite uncomfortable during my stay.

7.0/10

I had high expectations for my family's first vacation since my son was born, especially with the beautiful views and prime location right on the Esplanade. Unfortunately, the service and maintenance left much to be desired. The cleanliness of the apartment was appalling, and I encountered several issues that would have typically been resolved at a more attentive place.

Rooms

The apartment had a great layout and could accommodate us well with two small children, but it was really tired and in need of maintenance. I found windows that wouldn't open and overall cleanliness that was lacking.

Rooms

7.0

The apartment was spacious and had beautiful ocean views, but it was also a bit tired and showed signs of wear and tear. Some amenities were lacking, such as hand soap, and the third bedroom was misleading as it was more like a sofa bed than a proper double bed.

I had high expectations for my stay at Indigo Blue, especially with the promise of beautiful views and a great location across from the beach.
