Really nice place with a great beach and many pool options. I didn't like the gym; I've had better gyms on a cruise ship. With all the space, they could have put in a better gym with updated equipment.

If your use to all inclusive like RIU, Dreams, or Hyatt this is not the place for you. It’s nothing like an all inclusive. Only 1 choice for breakfast sometimes dinner as well, room service not included in the all inclusive package. And most staff is not friendly.
