My stay 8/24/25 to 8/31/25 Hotel Lobby: Fabulous! Clean, spacious and relaxing Hotel Grounds: Gorgeous! Well maintained property, very clean with lots of photo options. Pool: Only 1, outdated but clean Staff: Kind, helpful and overall nice people. Rooms: Not modern as expected for a tropical country. But very dated, you can see where they did fixtures. First room the AC dripped water from the ceiling so we turned it off and only used the fan. Made it worst so they moved us to another room with no issues. Second room was lovely, higher sealing and the AC was on the wall whether it wanted to drip or not. It just was not dripping on me. Cleanliness is questionable and it depends on how much of a clean freak you are. The headboards, chairs, ceiling and walls had dust, dirt or spots. But my bed and bathroom had strong scent of bleach and that made me happy 😊. FOOD: Oh boy, not sure they tried. Too salty or none at all. Just very bland food options. The options were poor. For an all inclusive there were 10 and 3 of them are different sausages at all times (breakfast lunch and dinner). The drinks were simple, alcohol proof is not high so don’t expect anything strong. My overall stay was an 8/10 because of the entertainment staff. Very cool people who made the best of the stay by the pool and beach.

Is a very nice resort, the buffet food had a good variety. They had fruit out at every meal. The staff was very helpful. We went to italian restaurant for one dinner, the food was excellent. The service was excellent there too. The check in and out was quick. Remember to drink water, it is very warm outside, especially when you are in sun. The beach was beautiful but it has a lot of large rocks. I am not a beach person but ocean views were spectacular.

We had to move rooms due to the noise from the night entertainment until 1 am and loud guests leaving the disco walking by our room. Avoid building 4. Second room was great on the opposite side of resort but matresses were very firm. Food was decent but we ate out periodically. Pool and beach were nice more for surfing not swimming.

Pros- entertainment, grounds beautiful, staff is friendly for the most part. Lobby area ok. Lots of locals (we like Cons- Food variety was poor. Everyday you will get one selection each of chicken, pork and beef. Rice, beans, salad veggies. That’s it. Don’t eat from the cold meat lines, always flies. Depending on who does the omelette station the ingredients will be left open to flies. Infrastructure, food stations need an upgrade. My room also had a sewage smell.
