TL;DR
As of July 2026, parts of Serrano were still under renovation, and Azalia’s main building was not fully reopened either. Travelers recommend requesting a renovated room on the 2nd floor for more privacy and a better balcony setup than the 1st floor.
The most recent advice is to ask your travel agent specifically for a renovated room on the 2nd floor. Travelers find it better for balcony use and privacy, since drying swimwear and sitting outside feels less exposed than on the ground floor.
Travelers suggest checking in advance which floor has actually been renovated — 1st or 2nd — before accepting a room. This matters because not all floors in Azalia were opened at the same time.
In early July 2026, Serrano was still significantly unfinished: travelers reported that the roof had been removed, and only about half of the Serrano Club building was operating. Renovation was still ongoing in the other half, although the ground floor there had just started reopening.
Renovation was also still underway in Azalia’s main building, so when booking or checking in, it is worth confirming not just the room category but also the exact building section that has already reopened after renovation.
