Overly protective security made for an " am I allowed out" feeling. Can't have an uber on the property. Only Taxis allowed and they harass you when you want to go out.many other instanceswhere I was a bit disappointed. The staff inside the restaurant areas and cleaning crews were amazingly courteous as well as the front desk staff.
Front desk staff had no information on airport transfer / shuttle. The towels in the room were stained.
There was barely any events in the resort or shows. The pool was dirty . Well the main pool, the other pool in the private area was okay .
I love it, is a beautiful hotel super clean, the beach is amazing, the room needs a little update. The staff is ok, but if you don’t tip them they treat you different. The food is a 10/10. I’ve been here 4 times and I love it.
Room was clean.
Stuff is very friendly.
Hotel is old Hotel. I found only one outlet with two plugs. Also was loose.
Water in the shower room 3309 , you cannot adjust to the warm water. It was or too cold or hot water.
Overall nice beach
A lots of space to accommodate everyone.
The resort is way smaller than I thought. Its listed as all inclusive however the beer in the room you only get 2 beers every other day. That means if I want to stay in the room one day and relax and have a few beers, I can't. They limit you, that's not all inclusive. In 9 nights I was there I was only able to go to the a la carte restaurants 3 times because for 9 night you only get 3 a la carte reservations, that's not all inclusive. These are things that should be listed and clients should know before booking. When I questioned the hotel staff they said those are internal rules they have. I felt scammed
