Family Vacation

Positives: Accommodated our large family (4 kids) Good for relaxing vacation Food quality was decent Water in pools was comfortable Room service option was great when needed Towel service (number of towels, availability of towels was amazing) Ambience was great Hotel is not crowded, it was busy in areas when we wanted to be around people and always easy to find a quiet area Bathrooms (public) were nice and always clean Negatives: Charged for missing all inclusive braclets as we were grabbing taxi to airport ($65 USD per rope Braclet!). I’d suggest taking them off at the beginning of the trip, and having them ready for checkout. No one asked for them, they’re scratchy rope braclets. All food options were menu order-nothing quick. Having snack options, especially with kids, would have been great Entertainment was at the other resort, and didn’t start until 9pm. order accuracy was poor at the beach club, we waited almost 3 hours the one night we ate supper there, and didn’t get the food. The check in process sucked. Two hours waiting for two people to run us through the hotel process, and try to convince us to do a time share presentation. The activities (sales) desk were obviously conflicted (incentivized). They were the first people you saw on/off the elevator. And any questions would lead to sales pitches on time share purchase.

The only downside was the dining.Some nights food was cold and other nights waiting for a table was over a 1hour .Maybe a good idea would be a buffet so people with small children have another option and they do not have a long wait for food .
