It was a group of 10. We each had an issue with our rooms from the a.c not working, no hot water, my room got flooded n they just put towels in front of sliders the light in the bathroom was leaking. Staff was not responsive, no ATM, bar tender in club completely ignored us, the ceilings were leaking over us as we ate. We let staff know and where told to move but the icing that took the cake was having to wait till 7 for my room only to find dirty towels still on the floor in the bathroom and the bed linen were never changed. And the drinks are the worst. The list goes on and on never ever again

We had the swim out pool and loved it. The food was great. The only complaint was staff. Many were pleasant- others gave a vibe of not wanting to be there and like I was bothering them. Guess can’t win them all. But overall the experience was good.

We stayed at this property for 1 night. When we checked in we were told that the property had three a la carta restaurants and that we needed reservations for dinner. I attempted to make reservations and I was told reservations were not available and only one of the three restaurants was open. I checked in at 12 pm they charge me a fee for checking in early but didn’t bother to make sure i had dinner reservations. After going into our room we had no running water for about 30 min. After requesting a late check out i was also charge another even after going through the previous problems. Bad service wouldn’t recommend to any customer.

Wouldn’t go here ever or suggest it to anyone . This resort is one big money grab and careless about its guess. Check in is at 3 pm. I arrived at 4:30 pm and the line was a mile long . It took me 45 minutes to get checked in . After I am given a brief tour and I’m pointed to where I can go to make reservations for the restaurants I go and it’s open from 9 am to 1 pm which makes no sense since check in is at 3 pm. So I missed out on a night of restaurant since it closes at 1 pm. I go to my room in pack and head to the pool. They only had one bartender so it took long to get my drinks. I get I the pool and at 6:50 pm we are told pools are closing . Next day I wake up go to the buffet go to trade my card for a towel and I am told it is closed . You can get towels from 9 am to 12 pm. After that it reopens at 3 pm . Things just made no sense here at all . The beer club was cool though
