The concierge would not leave us alone and tried to schedule us and charge us for a massage! We never got our vip perks so didnt even get to go to the water park! The bartenders in the martini bar were the best! They were super nice and friendly! Wasnt impressed with the food there and honestly the shops are very expensive

I chose this property because I’ve been here before 25 years ago and you got a free massage and arts and crafts. Now a couples massage was over $300 arts and crafts start a $20 to make for like a key chain. The main pool look dirty, I don’t eat pork or beef so food choices are limited. The buffet used to be all 3 lunches now it’s only breakfast which to me was the best meal of the day. Most of the restaurants the food is subpar. Day one they make promises and get you to do a timeshare presentation ( oh I mean a membership presentation) and promise you something and since it was my birthday we did it. (To get a free candlelight dinner on the beach with a violinist. Never saw a candle or violinist) The food choices were very minimal and not good plus child portions. I told the sales rep I would like to see the whole complex since it had tripled in size since I had been there. Now if your selling a membership wouldn’t you show the complex , they took us to 2 units . The concierge made promises that we never got once we did the presentation and didn’t buy. The beds are so old we had back aches the whole 6 days and even heard others complain about their backs , people way younger than us and I even had them change the mattress. The beach was unswimable do to the massive amount of seaweed on the beaches. A float in the gift shop was $80.00. We paid extra for a swim up pool that was a joke.. We had water outside our room enough water to wade in.. I definitely would not go back

What I really loved about this property is the staff everyone is so nice and welcoming. Except for one employee who was on his phone when I was talking to him I just felt ignored because he would just say “a-ha”. Other than that everything was perfect. I can’t wait to go back to this property and spend more days here.

The ocean is blocked by a wall and rocks Full of dirty seaweed! Total deceptive advertisement! You cannot go on the beach into water! There are armed guards all over property which is very eerie
Nice view and chairs and cabanas but no access to ocean

Are there things that could be improved? Of Course! But did any of those things take away from what an awesome trip it was, NOT IN THE SLIGHTEST! Just book it already, you won't regret it!

Went here for our honeymoon and had a great time. The staff were very helpful and made it really easy to enjoy ourselves. Only issue is the one bartender overserved to the point where a drink was 3/4 alcohol and 1/4 juice.
