    Best Couples Vacation

    My husband and I stayed for 6 nights. We had an amazing time. The service 11/10 the best I have ever had. We always had a drink in our hand. There is plenty of chairs and Cabanas. No need to wake up early and try to get a seat. There was wait staff by the pool and the beach. Our butlers Houston and Victor were amazing. They made our trip unforgettable . They had a romantic set up for us in the evening that we enjoyed. Food was delicious we really enjoyed the lamb chops and duck at the French restaurant. The shows at night were fun! We enjoyed bingo and yoga everyday. This place truly makes you feel special. We had an amazing experience and we will definitely be back.
