The room was good, the food was ok….but the pools were just overcrowded. The beach was ok, lots of chairs, but the resort needs to clean the very dirty chairs( bird poop) and filthy small tables, many drink spills on them. A nightly hose down and a quick wipe down on the tables would’ve been appreciated.

Just returned from our stay here. The room was cleaned daily and the staff was very friendly and helpful. The sports bar area did have a strange smell to it and the food and late night snacks could use some improvement. Overall, we enjoyed our stay and found it to be a beautiful beach and pool.
