Just took TRX class with Nestor. It was so great!! He was a great trainer and so much fun to work out with. He made sure to match the intensity that we wanted and kept our heart rates moving. Highly recommend coming to one of his classes while you are here!!!

The best part of a vacation is great service...and aside from all of the fabulous restaurants, Ismael, Sandy, Feli, Julio and Shairas crew were the best at the breakfast buffet. HADAR. The resort is clean and beautiful. The rooms are spacious and have all necessary amenities. If there were better air conditioning inside the restaurants this resort would get 10 stars. Highly recommend staying here.

I attended a HITT fitness class with Michelle and loved it! Michelle was very knowledgable and the class was enjoyable and at a level that was challenging. It was nice that water & towel was provided! Looking forward to trying more classes during my stay.

We went for our anniversary and it was amazing. From start to finish the service was fantastic. They hit every little detail. We went with the Reserve and Swim up room upgrades and both were worth it. The gym was great (although new treadmills needed or at least fix the two that were broken). Watching the sunrise on the beach each morning was great! Unfortunately due to the seaweed issues in Caribbean the beach wasn’t swimmable. The 8 am yoga class was great each morning after a workout in gym. The yoga teacher super friendly and knowledgeable. There was a 9am fitness class every day that looked good but we didn’t partake. At 11 am each day they had a pool game or activity that were all enjoyable. Being able to get good food right at poolside was amazing all week, and of course the swim up bar was fantastic (Fernando was the best!) The main adults only pool was pretty quiet most days until 3 pm when they had a little DJ or Foam parties each day. For real peace and quiet the Reserve pool also had a swim up bar and food poolside with different menu but super calm. Pools closed a little early at 7 pm but most days you’re ready to go in anyway and relaxed until dinner reservations. There were enough nice restaurants to eat a new one each night. After dinner they always had an activity like Karyoake, DJ party, live band etc. We enjoyed each nights activities except the last night we didn’t stay because it seemed a little weird. The food was really good and I would say on higher end for all-inclusive. Below are what we had each day: Tuesday-Lunch was at the Reserve Restaurant and was delicious with Lamb and Chicken Pitas. Dinner was at the hibachi restaurant and our server was amazing. Even took a picture of us pretending to cook. The portion were so big we felt bad about how much we wasted. Shrimp, chicken and steak with veggies and fried rice. Wednesday-Buffet for breakfast with variety of flavored mimosas and it was very solid for a buffet. They had pancake station and omelette station. Lunch by the pool were great fish tacos with fresh chips and guacamole.. Dinner was at Sals steakhouse (only available free if you are on Reserve Package). Appetizers were great and NY strips were very good also. Waiter was great and even did a fun thing for our anniversary. Thursday-Finally made it the Reserve restaurant for breakfast and it was very good. Much better than buffet. Fresh Huevos Rancheros and a variety of other ethnic breakfasts. Fresh fruit plates as well. They also offer variety of detox and hydrating fresh juices. Lunch we had same poolside food and was great again! Dinner was at Lemon Fish and it was solid, maybe our least favorite but only because we aren’t ceviche lovers but the other menu items we had were still very good. Friday-another Reserve breakfast with similar items and equally as good! Lunch again by the pool but Reserve pool this time and the menu a little different so we tried shrimp tacos and few other things. Dinner was at the Sushi Asian spot and was very good. Appetizer sushi was good and tempura veggies solid. Sweet and Sour pork and great special fried rice delicious. Saturday- one more time at Reserve breakfast was great again. Poolside food for lunch was great again. Dinner we were going to go to hibachi again but we tried Blue agave. Had a few taco and the tortillas were very good, can’t remember which tacos we got but one was really good and the other just ok. Blue Agave is open to and the family side so was definitely the least enjoyable for us. Sunday morning we even had time to hit buffet at 7 am on the way to getting picked up. Really loved so much about this resort and are planning our next trip already. They really kids a great job helping us to celebrate our anniversary with one night leaving a bottle Of wine and a mini cake and rose pedals in our room. Then another night they had the bubble bath filled and a hand written card for us. The service was fantastic all around. The final person I’ll Mention was the young activities director named Tony. He was fantastic!!!
