"The good- We stayed in one of the royal palm rooms on the beach and it was beautiful. Mini split ac kept room very comfortable, nice bed and bathroom and the location on the beach was perfect. Entire resort feels very private and not crowded in any way. The views were amazing, the water was amazing, and the beachfront dinner was AMAZING(beyond worth the upgrade). The daily maid service was awesome great, leaving our room perfect everyday. Anyone saying the royal palm rooms were a far walk must be elderly and just not want to walk at all. From our room to the pool/main restaurant was literally a 2 min walk. The not so good- About 30-40% of the staff was friendly. The rest seemed like they did not want to be there and seemed like you were bothering them if you asked for anything. The explanation of how food works or what’s included was non existent. It took us the first 2 days of asking various staff and figuring it out for ourselves. The food itself was a 5/10. Not bad, but was edible sometimes. There is no 24/7 snack area or pool bar or beach bar. The bars are located in the restaurants. Overall- If you want a quiet relaxing beautiful place to unwind this is it. If you want to be pampered and have better food and amenities, this isn’t the resort for you."

"Had an issue with my Air condition on the second day and they allowed me to change my room"

"The staff were definitely on island time and things were a little disorganized. The room was nice, and most of the staff were nice. There was no food or drink service at the pools. We had to ask for sodas in the restaurant multiple times, and sometimes didn't even get them before we were done eating. The beach areas were nice. The restaurant schedules were a little strange and after a certain time, there was only one place to get food. "

"We had a great stay here. The rooms were updated and clean. We loved the close proximity to everything at the resort. We stayed in the waterfront rooms. Loved the nightly entertainment and daily activities. Most of the staff was really friendly."

"The property is gorgeous. The people are so kind and helpful. However, the food is not good. There’s no Caribbean flavors the food they do have taste bland."

"Place and staff was EXCELLENT!! Will be back for sure!"
