The initial room - 4230, was in horrible condition. Concerns were brought up multiple times to staff. They seemed unbothered and maintenance would do the bare minimum to rectify issues. Until videos and pictures were brought forward of the issues in the room to the Front Desk Manager, they recrified by moving us to a Premium room. The premium rooms are renovated rooms with updated amenities and decor. Dont fall for the ratings of this resort on the Adult side. If you arent paying top dollar for the top rooms, the resort treats you as a lesser person. Food is sub par but booking for seatings is horrendous. There are never any availability. We booked all our meals first day and found that none of the Adult side restaurants had availability over a 7 day period. So, when choosing the Adult side with no availability in the restaurants you then are eating at the restaurants or buffets on the main resort. The beach area - best I have been at. Minus the daily sea weed wash, the staff and workers are very attentive in cleaning. Plenty of seating with lots of palm trees or umbrellas for shade. Beach is small but very pleasant. Water is very shallow with multiple sand bars and lush sea grass. This was both positive and negative to the daily swims. The Snack Truck was a huge hit! Servers are many on the beach and very attentive. Pools are great but make sure you are early in the morning to snag a seat.

Beautiful beach! Always chairs available and never too busy, no matter the time of day. Two pools - one more serene, one definitely a party pool (with swim up bar). Food was good in all restaurants. Staff very friendly and helpful. Room was clean and comfortable. Only drawback is that our room was right by the evening entertainment, which was loud. We didn't ask to switch or anything, just used earplugs. Would definitely come back!

The staff were amazing and extremely accommodating! Lucy was our absolute favorite person we encountered!! The only person we encountered that wasn’t as pleasant as the rest was a lady at the host stand at restaurant “Mamma Mia” she was extremely impatient and rude to us since we didn’t speak a lot of Spanish. I believe her name was Maria or something similar . Everyone else including bartender, cleaning staff, restaurant staff and more were amazing

The accommodations are in need of modernization. We were required to relocate to a different room on the subsequent day due to a non-functional air conditioning unit. Service response times are extended. The availability of pool umbrellas is restricted. Our room service order was placed but never fulfilled. The hotel necessitates substantial renovations and an expansion of entertainment options.

Unfortunately, this resort fell short in multiple areas. To start, there was no designated bellhop service available—even when requested—and the resort does not allow bottle service to the room despite being advertised as all-inclusive. There are also different premium levels that were never explained to us, and these tiers determine whether you receive top- or bottom-shelf alcohol. Upon check-in, we were told there were no upgraded rooms available, which was disappointing since we were hoping for a swim-up room. After being shown to our initial room, I discovered dried blood spots all over the bathroom floor. Naturally, I was extremely disgusted. Management did move us to a better room after I reported it. The new room smelled wonderful when we first arrived, but by the next day it had developed a musty odor. The main pool was also underwhelming—very small with limited lounge chairs, making it nearly impossible to sunbathe or even set down our belongings comfortably. And while I understand it’s difficult to maintain a spotless pool with many guests, there was a corner near the swim-up bar that was so dirty it was genuinely nauseating.The food was just okay, but I ended up with food poisoning on Day 4 (likely from the tuna sushi), and I was in severe pain for more than a day. In addition, the beach vendors were extremely persistent and made it uncomfortable to relax; their constant presence ultimately discouraged us from spending time on the beach at all.

My wife and I stayed here for our honeymoon and absolutely loved it. We had a private suite with our own pool — clean, comfortable, and the perfect place to unwind in the afternoon once the sun warmed the water. The room was slightly dated but spotless, and the nightly turndown service made it feel extra special. The main pool with the swim-up bar was a daytime favorite, and the resort’s nightlife was great with evening shows by the pool and events in the piano bar. The restaurants offered plenty of variety and flavorful dishes — just be sure to make your reservations early. The staff were outstanding, friendly, and attentive; we especially want to thank Berenici for her warm, energetic personality. The beach was beautiful and well-maintained, with staff raking seaweed daily. Beach vendors do walk by, but they’re polite and not pushy. The coffee shop was excellent, and there’s even a small casino on-site as a fun little perk. Overall, a fantastic adults-only resort we’d love to return to!
