We loved the Jr Suite with swim up pool! The resort was kept spotless and the food was great. Chez Isabelle was exceptional! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and appreciated the awesome staff.

Worst food I have ever had in my life. So bad in fact that my husband got sick by the end of the week and had to be seen by a doctor. The staff was somewhat helpful in helping us get him to a doctor but nobody offered any apologies, or attempted to compensate us in any way. He CLEARLY got sick from the food there since he began showing symptoms on day 6 of our 8 day stay. Never again.

Amazing place all around except food. Great entertainment, beautiful property, location, service. Loved the spa. It would be 💯 wonderful if it wasn’t for the average food, that includes buffet and restaurants. Coffee was good, though.

Beautiful resort with great rooms and awesome staff.
The bar by the pool was putting water in my drink one afternoon and when I confronted them, they made it again with tonic water. I told them my drink is pineapple juice and Malibu rum, not water or tonic. The maids are amazing and they do a fabulous job. The best restaurant to us was The Grill, great selection of meats and attentive servers. I’m lactose intolerant and yet your coffee place had both soy and almond milks. Also it was great to have some sherbet while my husband had his ice cream. The jacuzzis at the main pool need to be cleaned better the water was brown after a hour. We were impressed with the resort and will be back for another Anniversary.
