  10 out of of 10 ❤️

  We had a great experience after having a five hours delayed with our flight. When we got to the hotel close to midnight the check in was comfortable and smooth. Everything was already set up for us to go to our room. Overall, my partner and I give 10 out of 10 everything was just amazing the service the staff, the cleanliness, the room the bathrooms ,public spaces. Everything was excellent a big shout out to Maria Castro in Dining , also Rosa in housekeeping. She was excellent, and all the staff making an amazing performance every night. Absolutely a memorable amazing time.

  Great vacation

  We had a wonderful time at this resort. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Pools are great. The beach itself was nice but if you are a swim in the ocean beware of jellyfish! We witnessed 2 people get stung immediately after getting in the water. We did however lounge on the beach daily then moved to the quiet pool. We will definitely return.

  Not as advertised and food poisoning

  Unfortunately we got food poisoning from the Brazillian-style steak restaurant on the second night, which meant we couldn't leave our room for half the holiday! This didn't help with the daily/nightly power cuts either. The restaurants are hit or miss; the buffet and Asian Fusion restaurant were best by far. The Gourmet Pablo we received terrible service, only four tables in yet they ignored us as soon as I said I didn't want any wine to drink and please could I just have water! Food was cold and the showstopper dessert with melting shell didn't work as the waiter poured clearly cold sauce onto the shell, which was a bit awkward as he had to go get some heated up to try again! Similarly the 'pancake at your table' dessert we saw another table have was a cart rolled out with premade pancakes on a plate, which they then made a show of lighting a pan and reheating one pancake from the plate and then serving? Definitely not the dining that was advertised when we booked, the beach was lovely but overall the facilities are tired and for the luxury holiday price it was not worth it especially when they emphasise their restaurants and fine dining as a main reason to book. Dress codes for restaurants also didn't seem to matter - again we turned up according to dress code, and there were people turning up in flip flops and shorts. Majority of guests were at older end (50+) when we visited so events weren't very lively apart from the beach party which was the highlight with the fireshow.

  Ocean resort not appealing.

  If you're looking for a Caribean bech resort, this is NOT for you. The resort is well kept, service is wonderful and food is good. However, we were quite dissapointed with the ocean water. It is near a river hence producing jellyfish, water mercky and people who went into the ocean, all got stung, one person severly. Hence I would not recommend this resort as our desire was truly to experience the Caribean ocean as one would expect. Will not be returning to this resort.
