Had a good 7 days here. Food was great, something for everyone all the time. Did the Japanese twice. Italian not worth your time. Drinks were always on point. Bar service at the main bar needs more staff, or to open a 2nd one. Long lines for drinks. Rooms clean, beds comfy. Grounds were immaculate except the pool. Maybe the filter needs to be repaired? By mid day we had to wade through dirt and scum to find a “clean” spot. Some algae build up on the walls and our floats were all green by the end. This will be the reason, I would not stay again.

The staff are very friendly and will go out of their way to say hi and ask if you if there is anything you need. The property next door is very unsightly, and the beach front is littered with waste as you walk along the sand.

They do not put wash clothes in the room so if you do not bring your own you have to ask every day. They do provide glass bottle cokes and sprites and rum in the room but the bottle opener is level and sprays half the beverage on you. When we asked for a handheld opener they stated there wasn’t one. The room was very clean and nice except the phone broke on day two and was never fixed. The app is good for finding out what is going on but requests are not checked. We asked for a bath sponge on day one and never received one.

The resort is very nice the beach is very clean, they work on the beach all day removing glasses and straightening lounge chairs and seaweed from the shore. Love the attractions on the beach they cook, many games that the staff gets everyone involved. My only issue with the beach area the only towel hut is by the pool which is a distance from the beach. The pool area is also kept clean and the entertainment and music is fun as well. The bar staff of very attentive. As for the night entertainment it’s not much but a good place to get to know the other guest at the resort

I strongly advise against spending your time and money at this resort. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the alarming level of dirtiness and evident mismanagement. It's clear that the hotel desperately needs to take serious steps to improve cleanliness. I experienced one of the most disappointing vacations of my life. The quality of the rooms was poor, and the state of the bathroom was simply unacceptable—it was a true nightmare. Dining at the resort was equally uninspiring. Each morning and afternoon, you are limited to the main buffet for meals. By the time dinner rolled around, we were met with the same limited selection. After five long days, the monotony of eating the same dishes for both lunch and dinner turned my appetite into a distant memory. To add to the frustration, there were supposed to be three specialty restaurants available for dinner, but one was closed for construction. So, you to alternate between the remaining options, which unfortunately resulted in a lack of variety. We found ourselves stuck with the same repetitive food choices day in and day out. During the day, there wasn't much to do. There were no water sports available, either free or for rental. The resort had a pool, but the quality of the shows offered was poor. At night, while resorts typically host a main show, I would recommend staying in your room instead. Overall, this experience left much to be desired, and I wouldn’t recommend this resort to anyone. Save your money
