The food options are amazing. Staff is very friendly and attentive. Staff were always asking if we needed assistance, or greeted us when they saw us. We noticed that uniforms on staff are always clean and neatly put together.

What i like is property layout. What i didn't like is you don't have a choice when they say you have to change your room as there is someone else will come and stay in that room. So you will receive a letter where it explains you what you have to do but not stay in you room. Yoh have to occupie by 11am and you have to wait to have your new room keys 🔑 make sure when you reserve specialy with expedia ask that question

Property itself was good room nice it needs few touches in the bathroom. I had VIP but I really didn’t like that I couldn’t eat or drink anything I would like very weird rules for all inclusive resort. Poor breakfast and lunch but dinners were good.Poor entertainment couldn’t go to shows unless I made reservations. No club with disco dance after 10 pm. No entreatment or games around resort and pool area like others have. Definitely I was in much better resorts before.

Spotless resort, great food,friendly staff. Can’t say enough good things about this place. Just wish it was easier to make dinner reservations. You have to go through your concierge. Seems if you don’t sit in a timeshare presentation, they aren’t very helpful. Would definitely come back though. Tip, try and book Saturday to Saturday so you don’t have to switch rooms during your stay.
