Ok,so this place is decent, but not a 4 or 5 star. Lights don't work,phone didn't work, huge language barrier. Its outdated,the ocean is dirty,the water and the rubbish coming to shore every day. If you want a great experience on vacation try elsewhere. Food is not great either.

The staff is exceptional! From the room maids, to the staff at the restaurants, to the bar tenders, to the room service, to the pool guys - 5 star service!! The rooms and entire facility was always clean and modern! Be sure to rent a car if you don't get all-inclusive! Only advice is to have more activities engaging the people that want a bit of a "party" atmosphere during the day!
