Las habitaciones lindas, limpias, ordenadas, buena presion de agua. buena vista. el personal de recepcion amable y servicial. La playa bonita. Esta mal organizado es muy complicado reservar las cenas, hay que hacerlo basicamente en la aplicacion entre las 6 am y 7 am, luego ya solo queda disponible el itialiano que es el pero restaurante del lugar. Hay que hacer fila para todo. pocos bares, la calidad de bebidas es pesima, en la habitacion no te ponen ni una cerveza jamas. El vino de carton que se puede pedir en las cenas, es malisimo y te sirven un medio vaso. La comida es muy repetitiva y de calidad baja. El restaurante de carnes es el unico que vale la pena. Las cenas son a las 9 y los shows que duran solo 30 minutos, estan mal coordinados, ya que el show es 9 y 30. asi que uno termina de cenar a las 10 y 15 mas o menos y ya es imposible llegar. la otra opcion es quedarse sin comer e ir a ver el show. solo hay un bar abierto en la noche en todo el complejo. la discoteca es una hueco que parece salido de los barrios bajos de un suburbio, ahi no tienen cerveza por cierto. es barato $130 por persona la noche, pero la verdad no vale la pena. en 5 dias si llegue a tomar 5 cervezas y 5 cocteles es mucho. y no porque no quisiera mas, pero hacer filas largas, tener que cruzarme todo el hotel no vale la pena. tiene potencial por la zona donde esta, pero esta muy mal administrado. otros Decameron como los de San Andres o el de Mompiche estan a un nivel muy superior. nunca volve

The staff was the best part of the trip. Everyone was exceptionally nice and welcoming. The room didn’t look like it was cleaned properly. The food for someone who is Colombian/American wasn’t what I expected. I loved the people outside in back of the hotel where the beach, they were selling souvenirs. It was good for the price.

Good value!!!!

When I read the reviews I was somewhat nervous about my choice but I found that for the price the place was terrific. I think some folks are just too spoiled. The only minor complaint was the way dinner reservations had to be made..... MR

The property has lots of potential but when you think all inclusive at the beach you expect more hands on service. The drinks are given in small cups and you have to go the bar, what ever happened to waiters at the pool or beach. So you are often running back and forth.The pool is often over populated. Food is offered constantly with a catch you also have to fetch it at various areas of the property. I guess if you have never been to an all inclusive with top notch service this like a great place. But I was sadly disappointed. There were some stand outs the service from the kids events coordinator Yulie she was awesome. At the buffet there was Señor Lucho serious the reasons why we enjoyed our stay.

The check in is at 3:00 pm if you go earlier you have to pay more to stay and receive the service, it is not fair because you paid ( it is not cheaper) and you have to pay more.
