We booked the Red Level Service for our honeymoon and we were a little nervous that it wouldn't be everything they advertised. Yes it is a bit far from San Juan but we knew we weren't leaving the resort. Our three-night stay was amazing!!! From the moment we arrived, it was one delightful experience after another. The hotel itself is gorgeous. If aesthetics matter to you, then this is the place for you. If you are a romantic, then this is the place for you. If you like to relax and rest, then this is the place for you. The food at the sushi restaurant on the property is delicious! Both women sushi chefs (we ate their twice) prepared some of the best combinations we've ever had. We really didn't think the prices were all that pricey. I mean it isn't cheap, but who wants cheap sushi? Now onto one itty bitty tiny negative.... the sheets really do smell. We had to laugh because they really do stink. We surmised that because it is so incredibly humid there, the room is constantly saturated. Which in turn might account for that not so fresh smell. Now onto the pros.... SERVICE! If you like to feel special, this place is for you. The staff and butlers go out of their way. Especially Jose our breakfast waiter, Edgar in the Royal Service Lounge, Eddie another Royal Service Butler, Angel C., and last and most importantly Angel M. He is without a question an asset and a credit to the Gran Melia. We had the time of our lives!!!
