I even paid for the upgrade ay itslian restaurant and as most of everything I ate, mo flabor.. All food was served watmed at best, mot one hot dish and all made to order. Outside of most staff not speaking english, whicj is a first and I've traveled all over the world, so I could never get across what I was asking fpr. Also not enough explanation ehen booking excursions. I understand this is Spanish speaking country bit staff shpuld be able to communicate. Also after 11pm, there is basically nothing to do amd all entertainment catered to spanish guests for most part.

This property was beautiful, very clean, safe, and all the staff was awesome. The premier club was well worth the upgrade. It was like our own private location to hang out with the group we traveled with. The club had food and top shelf alcohol available. Several pools and bars to visits. I would definitely return to this property and country if I was solely thinking of the resort and beautiful weather. I must advise you to be prepared for long lines at customs. We waited 2.5 hours in the heat and the people the previous day had a 4 hour wait.

This property is huge. I love that they have a seafood restaurant (Oceana) near the beach. It’s beautiful in the evening. The staff was super friendly and accommodating. Didn’t get to enjoy the spa services because of the pricing. A couple’s massage was $500USD. Aside from that, the pool was clean and cool (not cold at all). The beach was just ok. They do however have plenty of chairs, cabanas and even swings at the beach. Also, the bar service and good options were amazing. I highly recommend staying here. It is about a 30min drive from old city but nothing a taxi can’t fix. I would definitely stay here again.

The worst resort I have been to. The only restaurants that had quality food was Portofino. All other ones were mediocre with poor service. There was a day it took an hour for our food to come (including the appetizers). The drinks would also take forever to come. Oceans would be the one to take awhile and at times served dishes without all listed parts of the menu. Also, a lot of the tables there are not balanced. Breakfast was terrible. There was a morning we had to fight to keep our table cause someone was trying to take it and server took awhile to get our coffee and other drinks and omelet. It needs more variety and it would be better for customers to order omelet on their own or increase number of staff during busy hours. It's a small resort. You have to take shuttle to get to the beach and Oceana restaurant. They said shuttle would be quick but there were times we waited for awhile for one to come. The beach is small and super murky. It was like New Jersey beaches, not at all what I would anticipate from Colombia given its beautiful beaches else where (Isla grande and baru). However, it was calm and I still enjoyed it. Staff is not friendly, and don't greet guests even with a simple good morning. There were very little activities at the resort compared to other ones we have been at, and often it seemed that they would only do the activities upon a members request. Those leading the activities did not seem very enthusiastic. There was flooding in our room as well.
