Jun 08, 2025Great Trip!
It was a great trip, and the hotel was excellent. I would definitely recommend it to others for their vacation! The hotel staff is very responsive, and the gym is excellent! They have lots of variety for drink locations and we especially enjoyed the water park!

Fabulous time.
This place is beautiful. The rooms are comfortable and the service is excellent. So much to do. Beautiful beach and pools. Loved the water park and all the swim up bars. Loved the fact that we had access to Breathless resort as well. We celebrated our friends 50th anniversary. Had a great vacation.

The service and food were great. Beautiful resort and the friendliest staff. My only complaint was with check-in at preferred which had us pay over $1000 more for our 13 year old. When I booked I was told 17 and under was considered a child. My rating would have been a 5 if it had not been for the very stressful check-in.

Onyx the Adventure
We enjoyed the preferred adult pool and the staff was friendly everyday. Even after a group of seniors that graduated high school showed up on day three of our trip, I never saw the staff slow down or lose a smile (these kids ran them ragged). I have so many things to do for all ages, and adult member can go to the connecting adult resort Breathless if you need a break from the family side.

If Paradise is half as nice
As we arrived, following an arduous and tiring journey, the bus doors opened and a young man whose badge identified him as Edwin flung his arms wide open and with a beaming smile welcomed us “home” he took our cases gave us numbered tab receipts and invited us into reception to register. We were promptly handed a drink each and the whole process was quick and efficient following which Edwin, having sourced a trolley loaded our bags and delivered us to our room. We had a balcony with a garden view which also overlooked the area weddings, within the grounds, were held. We had a whirlpool bath on the balcony discreetly sited behind wooden slats for privacy from anyone in the grounds. It was a junior suite with a bedroom and separate lounge. The fruit awaiting our arrival and note to claim our champagne were a lovely touch. The room was well aired, clean, comfortable and stocked throughout our stay. The whole complex was of a super high standard well maintained and the majority of staff were clearly pleased to be employed there. We had a few favourites the aforementioned Edwin, Jenny at the pool who kept us hydrated and supplied our chosen drinks. Alison who took breakfast two notches higher and Mimosa lady whose name I cannot recall. Shadow from the entertainment team was a favourite with all ages. The food choices were inclusive meeting the needs of those with allergens and food intolerances, diverse and varied, we did not eat the same food on any two of our ten days, the favourite was the Asian Teppanyaki experience evening which had to be pre booked but was included in the holiday price. There were a number of pools from paddling to infinity and a lazy river and swim up bar something for everyone. The beach had loungers under the shade of the coconut trees and a very handy bar to keep our thirst quenched. Two words were used constantly FAMILY and EXCELLENTE these were the hotel values and carried through from the initial greeting to the last farewell.
