The man at reception was very rude when we arrived and didn't want to give me the room we paid for. Next day Joann helped us out to move to another room.shes very polite and friendly! The room is too old needs upgrades also the floor was always wet , I believe it was because the ac. The food was ok, Sunday we can’t go to the pool was invaded by the locals, same thing with the buffet we can’t eat, we had snack till dinner which we made a reservation. Overall.. definitely we are not coming back!

The air conditioner never worked properly, we kept calling the front and they acted like they didn’t care; especially because i was traveling with a toddler in a room with no working AC, rooms are old and in need of a lot of work. I would not recommend this hotel.

The property has potential, entertainment is weak the food was okay, they looked under staffed. Pool bar was closed only top bar was operating had to wait a long time for service. They would run out of curtains juices that are supposed staples at the resort and the crew were not that intense. The resort was over all okay. But wouldn’t stay there again.

It was great. Food was delicious. I will give it 10/10 for that one.
The only thing they could improve is an updating a little bit. The appearance of the resort is a little bit old.

I didn’t like the facts that it’s took so long for me to check in. Even after they told me to come back after 3pm to get the keys. I waited in line again still the room was not ready. No water in my room. Even when I went to the front desk ask them. Never received. Not crazy about the food. But the place it self was clean and the people were very friendly.

I like the fact that they a large variety of food, they food was decent.
I paid for two nights for the Junior suite with two queen size bed but instead they wanted to give me one king size bed I told them I paid almost $600.00 USD for two beds they told me I have to wait until 3pm which is the check in time, the room was ready 10 minutes before 4pm.
When I got to the room they had place a bed that it didn’t match with the other bed and it was in horrible conditions, also didn’t have a drawer, a tall mirror or face towels. I have pictures of the bed but I can’t upload it here.
I ask to speak to the person in charge and they never reach out to me. I do not recommend this resort
