What a great stretch of beach! I tended to spend my mornings on the beach, so watching the sun rise taking an early AM walk here is incredible. Next was the Fitness Center to try and make room for the afternoon snacks and drinks! Then I would usually hang by one of the huge swimming pools, or stop by the warm water jacuzzi (I know it's already hot outside, but prefer the hot jacuzzis). Resort has a great kids club which will keep them busy all day. A la carte restaurants were excellent, especially El Agave! With 6 all inclusive bars, you can find a late night watering spot to catch up on blackberry emails very easily!
