I’ve been coming to the Plaza for years. Since 1990’s. I’m so impressed with the current upgrades of pool, dining is 4 star! new island rooms by marina/lagoon. The new shopping is not open though looks like it should be. It looks fantastic and dumfounds me that it is not open. The new dive shop has limited hrs and will ultimate be great. Overall I love this place even more than before. I’ll be back!

The food was great. The property had the best snorkeling out of all resorts we've stayed at compared to aruba, the Bahamas, Jamaica or Mexico. We saw turtles, eels, giant lobster, puffer fish and much more right on th property! The staff was friendly. They are process of updating rooms and some ground areas, so some areas were a bit outdated, but it didn't bother us. The grounds are still beautiful. There was no construction noise or any of that going on. It's close to the airport and conveniently located away from the downtown area. Our one and only complaint were the pillows. The mosquitos were terrible here, but the resort can't really do anything about that. These little complaints wouldn't stop us from returning and as a matter of fact, we may return again this year! Would definitely recommend.

We were housed in the older buildings on the property. Our room was dark and severely outdated. The bedding was atrocious. The shower was soiled and no cover on the drain hole. The bathtub had a dirt ring around it. The light on the bathroom mirror didn’t work. The one-ply toilet paper was ridiculous! The service in the one restaurant was awful. We had to secure our own water carafe everytime we ate and never received any service while seated. Had to run someone down just to get a mimosa for breakfast. The spa at the hotel is not open so unable to get any spa treatments at the resort. The swimming pools were ice cold and not clean. We paid extra for an airport transfer that did not meet us at the airport so we had to pay for a taxi. We had transfer secured for our departure and the front desk put us on what we thought was our ride only to get to the airport and find out it was another taxi that expected fare to be paid. I asked for a refund of our transfer and still have not received any refund.

It was sure a wonderful stay. The villa’s just amazing! We had only one problem with the doors inside the villas.The doors do not close properly, and it becomes uncomfortable, for example, when you’re in the bathroom or taking a shower. It would be great if these doors could be fixed.

The property was recently upgraded and is very pretty. The food was incredible although only one main do I g room they switch options for Buffett often and had great choices. My only criticism would be they could use little more staff. We often got our own drinks at the dining room bc nobody checked on us. Also there was nobody to help with luggage checking out. But great stay overall!

Overall the week we spent was amazing. The whole family agreed. Will definitely visit again and recommend to others. Food was excellent with the AI package. Everything was prepared fresh. The a la carte wine service was pretty rough. Some better training for the staff in that area is needed. A specialty restaurant would be a nice addition. We have high expectations for food service and they were exceeded in most every case. The newly renovated areas are stunning but the construction was a negative. better things are ahead for next time! The snorkeling reef out front is incredible. A big bonus for guests. On the negative side there is no real beach but that’s typical for reef areas. It’s what prefer and look for. We came to dive and the island didn’t disappoint. The resort staff in all areas were very friendly helpful and efficient. We stayed in the new apartments and enjoyed the more private setting and particularly the quiet infinity pool and bar for it. The modern style of the new apartments is nice but the layout of them is odd and does not work well. Our two bedroom only had one very small toilet by the entry door. The shower area had no toilet at all. Not a great set up for a unit that sleeps 4. Also it had a big well equipped kitchen and dining area. But we didn’t use it because the resort is all inclusive. So that space could have been put to better use (proper bathroom). Tremendous experience. Highly recommended for a luxury dive vacation

The property is located in a nice neighborhood. You could walk to restaurants, but if you are getting all-inclusive no need. I recommend renting the golf cart and driving to Jibe City, 1000 steps, Flamingo sanctuary. Bring water shoes for the beach entry area. Good snorkeling and shore diving from the property, as well as dive shop on the premises. They are upgrading the property but not intrusive.
