Overall our stay was ok. The food is basic and the drinks are cheap. Everything is average. Some of the staff really make an effort, others do not and try to avoid you. We left a couple of bits (including flip flops) by the pool one evening and went back the next morning to find they had disappeared - reception/pool area couldn’t help us. That’s only minor but at a hotel I would expect to find any lost property so would advise to keep valuables with you.

I chose this property because it was VIP access and I was given NO upgrades at all. I asked about this and explained that i chose this property based on its VIP status and was told it would be too expensive to give me an upgrade. The rest of the property was old and dirty and the service was not great and the food was subpar as well. I was extremely disappointed!

The staff is great, but a lot of the property was being remodeled, so the restaurant & pool choices were limited. We had upgraded to Privileged access, however, due to the remodeling in progress, it wasn't really worth it.

I stayed here with my partner for 5 nights, overall a nice property. I stayed on the adult only side, and had access to the family side as well. Overall, a very large resort with plenty of food options. The staff were pretty great, excellent room service/ housekeeping. One of the main pools were under construction and didn’t open until the last night of my stay, which was a bit disappointing. Also wanted to note that the ocean did not have that turquoise Caribbean color that I was looking for, possibly based on the location of the hotel, which was the most disappointing part. Pictures can be somewhat misleading, and had I known the water isn’t turquoise I would not have booked this resort. But other than that the resort was nice and relaxing, with a calm vibe.

The main pool with the swim up bar was closed so we woke up to jackhammers every morning. This resulted in two restaurants being closed. Options for food were limited and the food was flavorless and disappointing. It rained a bit when we were there and there was a huge puddle in the walkway the resort makes no effort to clear. We walked through mud and grass there was no way to avoid it since we had to pass to get to the restaurants and the only pool available. They know it’s a problem and no action to clear it while construction is happening already. The staff was friendly and the place was clean and not over crowded. The bartender in the piano bar with no piano playing was fantastic, I wish I knew her name. The lack of food options and flavorless food was the worst and I would not come back to this resort because of it.

What was suppose to be a wonderful holiday and birthday trip for the both of us was far from wonderful. The adult hotel pool that they show in all their photos is completely under construction (which they dont tell you about). Half of the restaurants on the adult side unavailable as well. The few they do have are unfortunately not worth going to either unless you pay top $$. They make you make reservations for the few restaurants they do have. You make a reservation at one restaurant but yet when you get to that restaurant its closed do to construction and then its a hunt to find which building your suppose to be eating at. Which they dont tell you this either. Then if you also have people who dont make reservations but yet they get seated before us. You also have to walk all the way to the family side to use their large bar, their better restaurants and their pool. Also if you speak English they tell you that everyone at the front desk speaks English but yet when I need help they say "no English or sorry little English". Also we had a horrible experience with a fall I had in our room (concused and vomiting for a entireday), costing me $900.00 (which they said was my fault). So that was a wonderful feeling as Im trying to explain to them if they had proper drains for their pourches or atleast a saftey mat on the floor when you walk back in from your balcony. Unfortunly we heard constant complaints from many people all over the adult resort. All in all spend your money else w
