The service here is top notch. They were doing some changes to the restaurant menus when we were there and loved the steakhouse menu. This was our third trip here and noticed that they didn’t have someone outside grilling on a cart like they had in previous years. Love the addition of the star cafe. Overall it was an amazing stay.

This was our first time in mexico and staying at this resort was the best choice my husband and I made. I want to give a shoutout to the workers Benito, Tanya, and Rubin. If it wasn't for them we wouldn't have got nearly as much done as we did. The food choices were delicious and the entertainment provided was amazing. They had a different show every night. A special shoutout to Francisco, he made the best crepes
