Normally I'm hard to please but this resort was very good. I always judge the cleanliness of these equitorial resorts by the balcony. It's my first stop when I get to the room. If the balcony is clean, we're off to a good start. Ventus Ha, the premium family room was spotless outside and in. Beds were amazing. Pillows were great. Staff was friendly. Amenities were very good. Whole resort was very clean.
The food was hit and miss. Of all the meals, restaurants and buffets, our daily fave was lunch at Hacienda Aricife (I probably misspelled that but if you're there, you'll know what I mean). Surprisingly the golf carts were all around to take guests anywhere but they are gas powered, noisy and smelly. We could hear them driving all night outside passing our building. The 4 platinum clubs were hit and miss as well with broken coffee machines at 2 and empty/not restocked international drinks for cocktails. Ours ran out of Bailey's on our second day and never had khalua. Another one had a sea of khalua and yet another was stocked with Bailey's all the time. If I wanted a B52, it would be like a poker boat-run. Food in the platinum lounges was also not frequently stocked and very limited in quantity and selection. Presentation was always nice though.
Be pool people to enjoy this resort. The pools are all unique in character and clean but the beach was awful.
Lastly, there was some construction on the roof (6th floor) superloud in our 3rd floor room ALL WEEK and limiting the Ruf bar
