    Great Value!

    We went with friends in January. The ride from the airport was maybe 10 mins, three turns and we were at the resort. Check in was very quick. We stayed in a suite which was spacious and very clean. Food was great no issues with lots of options. The sushi was so good! The weather was phenomenal and so HOT nothing like we’ve experienced in any other tropical destination, zero rain. All and all no issues very affordable if you are looking for R&R.

    November 2024 Vacation

    Just getting back, do miss the warm weather. The good, the staff were friendly and helpful... Bartenders and drinks were great... Only went to the adult swim up pool, zero complaints... Towels were available every time i went to get one... Rooms were big and spacious. The bad, the food is not 5 star as advertised, on average 3.5... Had one good meal at the Italian restaurant, steak medallion, but everything else was just average. The beach is a public beach and not great either, dirty from garbage, horse waste left where it drops, and stray dogs run about the resort. The vendors are there, but are for the most part respectful, the horse guys can be a little aggressive and are constantly trying to sell you cocaine or any other drug of choice. The ocean itself was a disappointment, maybe the time of the year but couldn't go swimming etc, dirty murky water all 7 days... Rooms because of hotel style make it very loud from the hallway noise. Would I go back, most likely no

    Very nice week

    Just came back from this Resort. The Resort itself is beautiful and clean. The food is very good. The service is excellent, mostly in spanish, no english speaking. The entertainement is very good. The beach has a lot of shade due to plam trees which I love but the sand was dark. Unfortunately, we coun't swin in the ocean, the waves which were too strong and the water was dirty. I am not a pool person but I had no choice.
