This was my first time at an all-inclusive resort, and I was very happy with the experience! The staff were incredibly kind and helpful; the resort was beautiful, and the food was delicious - I would definitely recommend this resort to friends and family. However, it seemed chronically understaffed. As kind and hardworking as they were, there just didn't seem to be enough staff and the wait at the bars and restaurants for drinks and food was quite long at times. Additionally, not all restaurants were open at all times. My friend and I found ourselves heading to one restaurant for dinner, just to get there and find out it was closed. This made the other restaurants busier which created more waiting issues. Also, the beach was not what was expected. I did end up spending time sun tanning on the beach and swimming in the water, but you're definitely not going to this place for the beach. But overall, I had a great week and would go back!

The resort is beautiful, really beautiful. Wildlife everywhere, including sloths all over. Monkeys down the beach in the mangroves. Pelicans and iguanas were mating so they were everywhere as well. You do not need reservations in the restaurants which is great, tiny menu though. Buffet is small but fresh food and a cold room for cake and salads which was amazing! Not much food is reused the next meal so it really was fresh which I like a lot. It is very quiet so they can only have so much food. If you are use to massive buffets do not expect this here. The all inclusive coffee shop is amazing. The kids club is okay. Not great, although Sharon deserves a shout out. The kids ADORED her. The staff are never at the kids club to sign in your kid in so you have to be very alert to times while traveling to be able to drop them off which isn't the greatest when trying to relax. You cannot leave the resort if your kids are at the club. I have been to many other resorts and this has never been an issue. They don't accept infantskids of a few years. We chose this resort because of the kids club, not great. If you want to meet people and have fun this is a very quiet resort which we really appreciated but others we talked to were not happy about this, lots of young kids and older people. On another note, front desk is very quick to resolve any issues in your room, very fast. Room service was fantastic and efficient. We had a phenomenal trip I just wish the kids club had a better system.

The food was of budget quality for a premium price. The staff were at best indifferent. The property was not being kept up. Mold in the bathroom. I had severe food poisening as did others but staff were indifferent On the positive side, the room was large and adaquately appointed and the proerty was generally quiet at night. Overall, it seems that the management is not competent or caring about their guests.

When you walk into the resort. You’re greeted with eucalyptus and mint scent. It smelled great. You look at the outside and pool area and it looks absolutely beautiful. The staff is very limited in English but it didn’t take away from the view of the mountains. As we waited for our rooms to ready we thought the reviews were wrong and that this place was absolutely amazing. WRONG. once we got our keys and headed to our rooms. I opened the door and BOOM the most nasty moist mildew smell hits you in the face. The rooms are old , full of mildew, dusty and just outdated. The toilet was YELLOW. you could tell the toilet was white before but it was so nasty. I didn’t even sit on the toilet the entire 5 days I was there. We looked at our sheets and it was so many stains and even had the previous person drinks left over. They sent someone up to “clean” the room again but when they left it was like they were never in there. What I can say about this resort. There food, enter and views are to die for but it’s like the rooms was left unattended. They need to upgrade their rooms and renovate the bathroom. The only staff I felt need a raise is RUBEN. He was THE BEST bartender and staff that was there. He was always there with a smile and made sure I left happy. If you do decide to book a room here just go in with the mindset that your room that you sleep in is only for sleeping. At 7AM you will want to be out of that room until 11pm in the night.

Angi at the buffet was great. Typical all inclusive. Not really a kids resort but they had a good time. They didnt have an onsite photographer which would have been nice. The food was good. We only ate at 3 out of the 4 places since one didnt allow kids. We had preferred but couldnt use that pool because they didnt allow kids. The country was beautiful and fun to learn about. The concierge was not helpful and the VIP desk consistently asked you to sign up. The reaort was perfectly staffed. Room service was ok but forgot some of our order placed the day before.

The rooms were extremely rundown. The hotel staff was, it great. You can’t make reservations for dinner so you have to go line up 30-60 minutes before dinner in order to ensure you get seated. That being said housekeeping didn’t come around on a daily basis until 5pm to clean. Doesn’t allow much time to get ready in order to get seated for dinner.
