Property was clean, lots of pools and easy access to the beach. The only annoying thing is the elevators, we stayed on the 6th floor and you had to wait patiently. There seemed to be issues with a few of them that were repaired when they stopped working. Food options were great as well as lots of bars to grab drinks.

didn't like that once you had 8 booked restaurants you could not book anymore. That's wrong. When you are there for a month 8 bookings will happen. The app needs to be corrected.

I did not appreciate the loud non stop bands playing on the beach. Food is very blah, you won’t starve but if you want good food, go off the resort. Evening entertainment poor.. rooms not stalked with coffee, water or beer every day, must ask for it. No English tv, firestick wouldn’t work. Elevators were a nightmare to wait for. Only way I would go again is if the deal was too good to pass up.

The restaurants (non-buffet) required reservations which was fine, but the Bamboo restaurant was a buffet. All the restaurants had a buffet for their appetizers. I personally enjoy a served meal like at some higher end resorts, but the italian restaurant had delicious steak and salmon. Also the taco stand in the foyer of the bottom lobby was delicious. The tuba band playing in front of the beach absolutely ruined the sunset as i found it obnoxious and loud when was looking for a quiet monent. Good bang for your buck!
