This hotel is in a great location and provides top-notch service for its guests. The site is well maintained and has an excellent sandy beach which is maintained daily. The resort is smaller than some which is mostly a benefit. However, it also comes with a negative, and that is that the breakfast and lunch buffets offer minimal variety and are basically the same every day. The food is good but needs variety. The food in the restaurants in the evening is excellent. Also be prepared to experience sexual discrimination in the restaurants. Men are not allowed in with open-toed sandals, but it is perfectly fine for women's sandals to expose almost their entire foot. Although this may seem minor, it is still discrimination and should be challenged. The argument that it is just the rule is unacceptable. Would a defence of separate facilities for Blacks in the American south because it was the rule have been an acceptable argument?

First trip here. Staff was excellent. The food was exceptional. Very clean, quiet and plenty of pools. We wished they had heated pool, found one on the last day but not sure it was warm when we arrived. The facilities, rooms and restaurants are clean.

This resort was absolutely wonderful to stay at. Beautiful grounds & beach, excellent food and very friendly & attentive staff. Our only regret was that we didn’t book to stay longer.

Dayna Moreno and her team We’re absolutely amazing helping my dad with finding his phone. These people are seriously amazing, you guys should do whatever you can to keep them at this resort. I’ve never had such good service in my life, they helped us all the way through. Please give these people a raise or a bonus

Was here this time last year. Food was just OK this time here. Many of the staff appear unhappy are unfriendly and appear to want to be anywhere than where they are. Some great. Majority not tho. Beach beautiful and clean. Grounds manicured and gorgeous.

Second to none. My husband and I stayed here and were so spoiled, it was very very hard to return home. Your every wish is granted and some you didn't even know you wished for. It is sophisticated and elegant with out being stuffy. The food is wonderful. Drinks are all prepared with top-shelf liquors, wines are good to very good, and champagne is always flowing. I could not imagine anyone having any complaints.
