Great if you just want to stay on property, eat, drink, and stay by the pool. Not great for beach time or adventure. Beaches have big ugly concrete blocks not far out in the water. Beaches often are rock or have a big drop before sand.

Property has aged over the years. The staff is wonderful (bartenders, waiters, concierge) but the rooms need an upgrade and upper management could have been more helpful.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
We showed up for honeymoon. Our room wasn’t decorated or anything. Nothing special was set up for us. Our shower didn’t have hot water at all. When we ordered room service they would question how many people we had in our room. They would try and up sell us on EVERYTHING. It’s an all inclusive and would try and up sell us on the menus, alcohol, massages, transportation etc.They told us we would get a discount on our couples massage and they never honored it even though we had a physical coupon. Broken glass plates were shattered outside our room from room service and they would never clean it up so we were constantly walking on shattered glass. Staff asked for tips. Overall, very poor experience and sad we took our honey moon here.

I expected white sands and a beach close to our room The sargassum seaweed was excessive, and was continually being cleared ineffectively from the beach, which actually didn't exist and the view was marred by concrete obelisks presumably there to prevent further erosion. So that it was not possible to enter the sea from the resort
