Very nice and well kept property. The beach is a lot closer than expected. The resort is essentially beach front. Pools were great. Lots of activities. Lot's of food and drink. The staff was supper friendly and helpful. The resort can be a bit on the noisy side but we expected that going in.

The room was very spacious and beds comfortable. Beautiful grounds with a variety of pools and swim up bars. The food in all of the restaurants and buffet was very good, unlike many other all-inclusive resorts. I attended one afternoon theme party that was great fun! My only complaint about the resort was there was only bottom shelf alcohol. I would have paid $100 US dollars more for better alcohol options.

Staff was great! however the food at the specialty restaurants left much to be desired. Also, not a lot of adult entertainment. Overall a very noisy property - guests were playing music on their balcony till all hours of the night. On a whole, not a bad resort but I won't be staying there again.
