This place was falling apart , rooms are dirty dingy and have mold . Linen was dingy . Furniture has severe wear and tear . Bathtub was dirty and all scuffed up. It looked more like a motel than a resort .Do not RECOMMEND!!! I looked at 4 rooms before I settled for the last one . Only stayed because I could not cancel and stayed out all day till it was bed time. Beach and pool were not worth stay .

Me he quedado en múltiples ocasiones en Aquarius y hay habitaciones en mejores condiciones que otras. En esta última estadía ví que el lobby está remodelado y están trabajando para la mejora del resort. La habitación que nos dieron estaba limpia pero necesita ser remodelada. Todo se ve deteriorado pero funcional. El dishwasher no está asegurando y se salía completo. A pesar de eso, es un excelente lugar para ir en familia y estar cómodo y seguro.
