This resort is fantastic! The resort is not very big, walking throughout the resort is easy. There are several a la carte restaurants which don’t require a reservation. The service provided by the staff is excellent. Definitely exceeded my expectations.

Very beautiful and big hotel. We were there with our whole family and had two rooms with big balconies. The rooms were big, clean, comfortable and the design was beautiful. There were several restaurants and very delicious food. Many thanks to the hotel staff, they were very polite and they could always help us with anything...

Loved the amenities, location and vibes of this hotel. Extremely clean and the outdoor landscaping and pool areas were very well maintained. Only area of improvement is the food, it was just OK. The restaurants didn’t have many options to choose from and the quality was just ok. The buffet seemed to have better options. Overall, great vacation here!

I have been to many all inclusives and this one is average. The facilities are clean and the beach is great. I would rate it higher except for the following. 1) Food - is average, most of it is over-cooked. It is hard to get into the specialty restaurants as they do not take reservations. 2) Noise - the entertainment in the main courtyard that all of the units face goes on very loudly until 11 p.m. every night. 3) Service - at the pool it is great, at the front desk not so great. They are efficient but not friendly. 4) Miscellaneous - fire alarms in our building went off non-stop from 1:15 a.m. to 2:30 a.m. our first night. We had to go to the front lobby with several hundred other people. Management never made an announcement or apologized. Then it went off again at 7:15 a.m. Made for a very sleepless night. There is a water park within an 10 minute walk that is very small, we only spent about an hour there. Overall I don’t feel that I received the quality stay that I paid for.
