Our room wasn’t the best, rusty garbage bin. But everything else was nice. Good buffet options. Clean pool, clean beach. And it’s small so everything is walkable. The snack bar by the beach has better food option then the one at the pool.

Despite the fact that the hotel was totally crowded, the staff maintained a kind service all the time. We had issues with the room as the hotelndid not follow the instructions of the bedding configuration of 2 queen beds, however they showed a very strong interest in solving the issue for us, and they did. The kindness of the staff makes it easier to wait until the issue is solved. Thanks for the service.

Rooms were clean and up to date. Staff were nice and friendly. The only problem would be people working for commission, they are very persistent and annoying. Or personal concierge, Santo, led us astray lying about a hire spa package that turned out to be a membership tour that took up 3 hours of my last day. Then they were trying to force me to buy in, saying it’s just money. I came here for all inclusive with everything I’m trying to spend accounted for, not to spend $2,000.00 plus dollars randomly for something.

The general staff is very courteous and helpful. However the office staff for elite I interacted with was a nightmare. Mr.Corporan was extremely helpful and convinced my husband and myself to view elite options. We then sat with the most arrogant and unpleasant lady named Alicia. Myself and my spouse did not even get interrogated this way at our citizenship interview. By the time the manager came to speak to us (very nice gentleman Patrice) we were just over it. Alicia was so aggressive we just simply didn’t want to continue listening. Big shout out to SANDY at the beach bar. He’s the best and makes you feel at home!
