Hotel was very nice and everyone was super friendly. Only complaint is the food and entertainment could have been better. I thought they would have Colombian authentic food but that was not the case, the meats were very tough. Only restaurant that was good food was the sea side one. We had a sea bass and seafood rice which was yummy. Also not too much pool entertainment. This is good resort for those who want to relax and not have big crowds . Overall not too bad I would come back 😊

I really enjoyed my stay at this resort property. This was a beautiful, clean and calm resort. The staff was nice, friendly and very helpful at the resort. Just speak with the concierge to find out what the resort offers and things to do off the resort when you first arrive. I have no complaints, but there are some things that a person should know if you have never traveled here to Colombia before. At this resort, the restaurants are not open all day. They are closed at certain times. There is a restaurant on the beach the serves food and one near the pool if the other restaurants are closed. There are not a lot of activities on the resort, so you will be leaving the resort to do things unless you are a person who just likes to relax all day. We enjoyed the report and going to places off the resort. You will need a translator if you do not speak Spanish or understand the language. Everyone there speaks Spanish at the resort and off the resort, wherever you go. Overall, we had a good time and would go back. There was a lot of great culture, things to see and things to do.

The staff was very friendly, seating by the pool and beach area was always available BUT the food... it wasn't good, the only decent food we got was down at the beach and it's open after breakfast and closes at 6pm. The Italian restaurant was closed on a Sunday and only two of three restaurants were available and the buffet food it just there to survive.
