My friend turned me on to the idea of an all inclusive resort and this was our first experience.
The property is absolutely amazing.20 to 30 mins from airport. We are patient observers, if check in is at 3pm, no problem. If we have to wait to use ammenities, no problem. We can go with the flow.
What I loved about the staff is, no matter your race, color, or creed, everyone assumes you speak spanish. I’m surprised how it annoys or offends others but to me, that's the staff treating you like family! You are assumed to be a native! That’s a high honor and did not go unnoticed!
Cleanliness was excellent, but I expected that. We did not go cheap on the room as I wanted the best experience for my budget which is around what I would normally pay for a well place balcony room or Jr Suite on a cruise ship for 4 guest.
Food was just fine. We ate well and often. Drinks were just fine! The staff related to entertainment was excellent and high energy! But I appreciate them being local and natives. They remember and acknowledge you around property. You become a popular high school kid again!
The gym was excellent.
Our kids are social and athletic and made fast friends olaying beach sports and games.
Gripe? Small things. This came so close to being the perfect bridge between cruise life and resort life. My wife’s coverup was missing from our room. Darn, but there was the ability to spend locally with vendors allowed onsite. We did so, and negotiated successfully, which was fun. B
