I like the property, and all amenities, and keep returning to it, for the third time..the entertainment at night and activities during the day are very nice! The staff is very kind and accommodating.. my only complaint is a long wait at the a la carte restaurants.. they don’t take reservations.. and so you come in and wait in line.. it could easily be 1,5 hrs.. with kids? no one can take that challenge well..by the time you get in no one is happy anymore.. Please work on improving that.. thank you!!

I really wanted to give this property a good rating but I can’t . Staff was rude and unaccommodating. Everyone barely spoke English and with so many international travelers you would think English would be a language spoken often . The food was sub par . Housekeeping would never bring fresh towels and if you asked for more their response was always later . The front desk staff was annoyed when you would call them and sometimes hung up on us. The rooms were sold as a “suite” but they were basically 2 adjoining rooms . For the money you spent to go here . DO NOT BOTHER. Very disappointed . Overpriced and a rip off

Mostly great experience, however, the Asian restaurant did not have good food and the service was awful. The server was rude, put her hand in my face when I asked for a different drink, and ignored us.

It was good and beautiful everywhere inside rooms, and outside. Only 1 issue we had it is staff, not friendly at all, not helpful. We always tipped at buffet and restoraunt l, but we did not speak Spanish, and we always had a hard time to be sitted at buffet. They don't speak English and not even try to help, just run around Spanish speaking people. Learn Spanish if you want to go there.
