Amenities were great especially traveling with kids. Only issue was had to ask multiple times to have a crib brought to the room. With that said the mattress and crib itself were great quality and my 2 year old slept no problem all week.

This is a 3 Star resort charging 4-5 Star prices, including a $40 resort fee per person, which is pretty high for a place under construction, without good walking paths, and charging very high prices for all food and drinks. Our floors had been swept, but not mopped - my feet got filthy walking barefoot in our room and I had to wash them just to get into bed. The beach is very nice, the pools are very nice, the staff is very nice, but overall, we had a mediocre experience and would not recommend this to our friends.

Our initial room was a small, dark room in a Villa by the marina overlooking mangroves which was not beachfront as booked. We were successfully relocated to a much nicer golf course townhome that was on the beach for the next 3 nights. Unfortunately, we had to move again for our last night and it was another dark, narrow Villa that at least overlooked the beach. We complained about the need to empty overflowing trash underneath the 2nd place we stayed at and it was never fully removed. We also had delays in getting beach umbrellas and beach lounge chairs delivered. The fitness room was excellent; clean and well-appointed. In general, hospitality staff were friendly and cordial but service was generally mediocre.
