I thought it was great. I went a few times between 2008-2010. I thought the property was more enjoyable then, but more dining options were available and there wasn’t as much noise. I had a club oceanfront room. The view was great, but the golf cart transportation service was right below us. Gas powered and loud. Those are the negatives. Positives of the resort begin with the pool. I spent most of my time there. Great to hang out with and look out at the water in the infinity pool. I rented a cabana daily. Service was amazing. Poolside food was great. A cabana isn’t needed to enjoy the experience though. The restaurants were mostly being renovated, but the food available was expensive but good. The club food was good/convenient. Morning coffee overlooking the water is fantastic. There is a boating experience that picks you up right on the beach for a day trip to explore the islands. The price isn’t terrible for the Caribbean. I have read negative things about staff, but I did not have a single problem with them. I’ve experienced much worse at higher class hotels. I also read cleanliness issues. I noticed a little bit of wear and tear from weather, but nothing that is not expected. This is a Caribbean resort that experiences unpredictable weather. It is not easy to maintain to perfection. There were many activities on the island. Shopping and adventure activities. Keep in mind that they are mostly a 20-30 min ride each way, but easy and fair priced transportation is very easy.

We arrived Friday afternoon and we were so looking forward to seeing the facility. There was construction on the beach bar area, rocks in the beach so you couldn’t walk without shoes. Because of construction they only had one restaurant open that was restricted in times and menu. There were ants all over crawling into makeup brushes and personal items. We stayed only one night and left. Found a Weston that was brand new and beautiful. Charles Tomeo MD

Overall it was very good and I understand it is the slow season but I think there should have been more food/restaurant options or possibly even offering reciprocity to some local restaurants to include transportation as I spent a fortune on taxis. Furthermore, the construction should have been done more quickly even if that meant closing for a short period of time or not having guest rooms so close to the construction noise. I also found it a bit contradictory giving free bottles of water in the room yet charging for water at the restaurant. I understand it is an island and everything costs more but for the prices you charge for the food; water should have been no charge. The hotel staff were excellent and always willing to assist as needed. I do look forward to staying there again.
