I found the staff to be friendly, polite, and professional. This resort is kid as well as adult friendly with a variety of activities. You can play golf, gamble in the casino, swim in the sea and more, all in the same resort, and just 40 minutes from San Juan airport. There is a wide variety of activities found at this spacious 500 acre hideaway resort. The resort holds a spectacular view of both the island of Puerto Rico and the beautiful blue ocean. I love to walk, and you can walk for miles along the beach.
What I wish I
could change:
Some restaurants do require slacks for men and the casino requires men to wear collared shirts.
Why YOU should
go:
If you like the big resort style hotels with something to do for everyone, then this will be perfect for you. Check out the spa and take advantage of the wide variety of services it has to offers. The pools and beaches were very clean and quite enjoyable. If you are looking for an adventure and you consider yourself and eco-tourist, visit the El Yunque rain forest and discovery its lavish beauty.
