Good but not a favorite
The service and pool were outstanding. We also enjoy the beach. The rooms are a bit outdated (especially the bathrooms need work). While the food was B+, there were many opening hour and take away restrictions at both the buffet and restaurants. Very inconvenient with young children. If you’re used to all-inclusive rules and limitations you might not be bothered by this. Also, people from nearby cruise ships can pay to come there for the day. That makes for a very chaotic environment.

Its in a great location, its clean. For the money I thought there would be more variety of food in the buffet.
The servers at the Ocean grill for lunch were very despondent. At the other restaurants the service was great.

It’s a simple all inclusive experience for the couple who wants a break and forget about day to day shenanigans at home. Food is good , their entertainment program will keep you busy, and you won’t get tired from walking a big property.
It will give you a much meeded break.
