We were so bummed to learn that they had sold the ocean front building, so our plans to pay extra for them were not an option as in past stays. The staff members were great, the food options sufficient and that beach front is fabulous. One in our group got sick, but since only one, she thinks she may have accidentally swiped her toothbrush under the faucet. Dang!! For a low budget, last minute beach hang, the rest of us enjoyed it. HUGE bonus is the ability to move the beach loungers to where you want!! Game changer! Though many are broken, when we could score enough decent chairs, we loved that.

AMAZING!!!! Stayed at this resort with a 13 person spring break group and was not disappointed. While it is not a party resort, it was everything we needed and more. The staff are amazing at creating a lively scene (perfect for our pregames), interacting with guest, and providing amazing and friendly service. Food is great, many options daily with chefs available to make food upon request! Beach is a 2 minute walk with beach bar and beach chairs! Resort beach activities like morning yoga and games!! Great mix of guest from all over the world. Would say it’s perfect for any type of stay! Rooms were very clean and staff did a great job of cleaning and tidying daily (especially us since we were in spring break). Will be booking again!!

Some staff members were friendly and nice however others were rude and not helpful. The room was for 4 people but they only provide 2 towels. The food was mediocre but I did like that they had some of the local food. Overall I did enjoy my stay but I would say there is room for improvement.

The property was small-limited areas. The worst thing was that there was mold in the pool which was disgusting, the ocean was dirty, the washroom was extremely tiny with an ancient toilet and sink (dirty), there was a sewage smell in various areas of the property. The housekeeping is not regular, we had to request fresh towels, bottles of water and toilet paper. The only reason I have given a 3-star is because the staff was courteous and the front desk changed our room upon request.

The photos on Expedia are not up to date. This place was not what we expected at all. Theres maybe one person that speaks English. I tried to ask the chef to change the bowl for making my omelet and he did not understand. I had to use the translation app and he then proceeded to wipe the bowl with paper towel and then put my eggs in there. We paid for an all inclusive but we maybe ate at the resort a total of four times and we were there for seven days. Almost All of the food has pork in it. I mentioned that to the person at the front desk and he just chuckled. The showers had mold in them. This place is not it.
