I'm sure this was once a lovely property. I wish I had visited 20 years ago. Sadly, a 2/3 star, all-inclusive mega resort opened next door and completely destroyed the beach and surrounding areas. You can no longer enter the water (ocean) AT ALL, even to your ankles, as there is broken concrete and rocks on the shore, garbage, and there are the boats and jetskis from next door racing at full speed back and forth from dusk until dawn, just feet from the shore, in front of the Viceroy. It is NOT SAFE, and the resort next door allows locals to buy day passes so the crown is, um, quite rough. Also, there is loud boom-boom music all day and night, making it hard to sleep at night. And the fumes/exhaust from all the boats and jet skis chokes you and you can't sit anywhere near the pool if there is a breeze or you'll die from exhaust fumes. Also, the food is mediocre and I got food poisoning. There were also cockroaches (alive and well) in my room: on my bed and in the bathroom. Gross.
