    Decent place

    The staff was amazing. Food was great at the Japanese restaurant. Buffet was hit or miss each day. I didn’t like that they close the pools at 7pm. My room had a funny damp smell to it. The walls are super thin, i could hear people in the hallway and in the rooms next to me. The resort is a lil outdated. I would say you get what you pay for.

    Short Vacation

    As always, this resort is great. I did notice the stage shows did not offer English/Spanish as much as previous years. We reserved a king size bed and it was not comfortable since it was just two beds pushed together with a crack between and each bed was made up individually.

    Not 5 star

    Hotel ok not 5 star, rooms tired food good but repetitive, entertainment the same and all bands only play Mexican music. Don't really cater for other nations. The wider area not safe in my opinion as we got robbed but I guess that's just the area. I wouldn't visit again.

    Wonderful!

    My husband and I traveled together to get away for my 40th birthday! Everyone that works there was amazing! We had wonderful service from the time we arrived until we left. The beds were a bit firmer than I would have liked but otherwise we enjoyed everything. You could go to the “party pool” or go and hang out and just relax in a chill pool area. Lots of options!
