Beautiful but some disappointments
The resort is beautiful but there are serious issues. Our first room smelled horrible from mold so I requested a room change. They still charged me the full $560 room rate but I demanded they compensate me so they gave me 3 days of complimentary resort fee. Due to the hurricane many rooms were wet so many guests had to have their stay modified. The beach is awesome but the boats often break down so they bring in smaller boats to bring you 15 minutes to the private island for the beach. The food in the restaurants is mediocre and very expensive. The breakfast buffet is $32 for very few food options. I will say the staff was excellent and the pools were nice. We liked the water park and lazy river although you must be 48in for the water slides. The stores in the resort sell mostly junk and it’s super overpriced. I was also hoping for more kids activities. Not sure if I’ll go back.

It’s was our honeymoon 😊😊very beautiful resort very upscale 😉 the morning staff are beautiful people ❤️the evening staff are horrible !! They try to over charge for everything ! Billing stated $141.00 but once I got to the resort they tired to force me to put an open credit card on my account with a charge of $200 that made me upset!! My bill was already at $1100 something !! So I refuse and only paid what was on the bill !! Please get yourself a rental car it will save you time and money !! Don’t walk it’s too far and they will not give you a ride the night staff just drove by us and did not ask for a ride !! Very rude !! But the resort is beautiful hands down I love beautiful views my room had the ocean!!! Views !!! Amazing also everything is over price I used the atm it charged me $8 !!! Also the woman dress niced and covered !!! Kids we welcomed there is no shuttle bus to take you to airport taxi is $125 only at the resort tho !!! You can only order Uberx also no free morning dish that’s a lie !! Enjoy your stay we did also when I checked out they tired to charge me $80 !! And could not explain why !!!

We stayed for six days. The staff was amazing. Cheerful, and helpful. You could tell they enjoy their jobs. Nothing felt “customer service” forced. When they asked, “How was your day? What did you do?” They genuinely cared. Puerto Rico is beautiful and so are its people, inside and out.

We were a party of 8 we rented 2 rooms. both our rooms got wet inside because on the Ernesto storm. One room was replaced with a room in the new building. The night before our check out we went to the front desk and asked if we could pay for another night because of the storm and black outs in the area we really didnt get to do all the activities we want to do. We had Ferry tickets to Culeba which we couldn't use or reschedule and they don't give refunds. The resort staff would not sell us another night or even approve us a late checkout. I sure the resort had a lot of cancellations because of the storm. I even told them our the one that was not changed because of water damage let us stay there for a late checkout because it needs repair they said NO. Luckily on our checkout morning we asked another team member at the front desk it she could please give us a late check out and she was nice enough to do it, I wish I could remember her name because the pools were cleaned from the storm on our check out day and we were able to enjoy them with a late check out.

The hotel staff was not able or allowed to price match what was available online from travel websites outside of their own for extending our stay. Communication and preparation about the Ernesto storm (August 2024) could have been better as our room was fully exposed to it, rain water infiltrating into our room with the wind, noise, roof leak, soaked rugs. Beyond that it is a beautiful place.

Great family moment got ruined when my nephew suffered critical knee injury in one of the slides of El Coqui Park. He will need surgery. That specific slide attraction should be closed.
