    Greatest Honeymoon Ever

    Amazing, beautiful place! The hotel was beautiful, and the staff worked around the clock to keep everything clean and tidy. The staff was amazing! Jorge and Alexis made sure we were taking care of always. Adnan was the hilarious activity coordinator and all the staff really made this a special trip. We cannot wait to go back!

    Good value

    Good hotel and the service was great. The buffet was not the greatest but it was OK. The biggest draw back is the constant attempts to sell us the time share (they don't call it time shares).

    Great value and location for the price - recommend it and would return with our family

    Great hotel for the value. Loved the size, pool area and beach. Food was above average for all inclusives and had a lot of options. All very clean and generally friendly service. Some downsides, which weren't a big deal, but to call out: 1) beds were a bit small for American travelers (full size, not queen), 2) gym could use an upgrade with newer equipment, 3) no jacuzzi/hot tub other than special access in the spa, and 4) lots of little rules that sometimes didn't make much sense...should chill out a bit.
