Flawless
From the moment we arrived to the moment we left, everything was perfect. No loud music by the pool or staff harassing you to participate in activities. You’re left alone to soak up the sun and the beautiful scenery in peace. Top notch staff who truly care about making your experience amazing. The umbrella booking system took all of the stress away and allowed you to make your way to the beach or pool on YOUR time. Beach is gorgeous and water is warm. Food is impeccable and service was friendly. I wouldn’t hesitate to book this resort again; I now understand why this resort has do many repeat guests and I intend on being one if them.
