Excellent-except!
Everything for the entire stay was excellent except the staff in the Buffet Restaurant. They stand in groups talking or with other guests talking instead of clearing the tables while people are looking for somewhere to sit. They also take their time to remove used dishes from the table. You can leave a used dish, so to get more food and come back and find the used dishes still there.

Amazing hotel
The staff were welcoming and friendly, room was clean and lovely our chambermaid was amazing. Plenty of choice in the buffet restaurants and the specialists restaurants were easy to get into. The Ole (Spanish themed) was by far the best. Even though it was a party hotel there were chilled quieter areas if you needed a break. The entertainment staff were great every night there was something to do. If you wanted quieter bars to just sit and chat there were plenty. The beach was beautiful and very clean with plenty of sunbeds available. Would definitely recommend and we will be going back again.

Punta Cana
I recently stayed at this hotel and while the property itself was fine, I was disappointed with how uninformed the staff seemed about events happening on-site and in the surrounding area. Any time I asked about scheduled activities, nearby events, or basic information that should’ve been readily available, I was met with confusion or vague answers. It’s frustrating as a guest to feel like you’re more aware of what’s going on than the people working there. A hotel of this level should ensure its team is briefed and up to date on daily events, local happenings, and guest services. The stay wasn’t terrible, but the lack of communication and knowledge definitely affected the experience. I hope management invests more in staff training so future guests get the helpful guidance they expect. Both pools were out of towels multiple times throughout our stay. USB ports did not work in our rooms.
