  • You don't need reservations at any of the restaurants.
  • Five glorious pools where you can splish & splash and work on your tan lines.

  • Hitting the gym, then heading to Zentropia Spa for some serious spoiling.
  • Activities galore for you & the fam, including a kid's club and a club for the teens.

Things to Know

  • You'll be sipping beachside in a flash - the resort is approximately 30 minutes from the airport.
  • A coral reef is right off the shores - grab snorkel gear & underwater camera for a photo op.

  • Don't miss the themed parties, dance classes and other opportunities to mix n' mingle with other True Beach Lovers.

    The staff were very helpful and so accommodating. We were here celebrating a wedding and a birthday and they made everyone feel so special. Shout out to Will, Rafael and Xavier (aka Barack Obama) for making this trip one to remember!

    Great resort

    Food was as good as it gets. A/C didn’t get the rooms cool enough at night. Would have liked a non smoking section at the beach.
