We LOVED this resort. The rooms were a little older, but who cares?! They were clean and had everything we needed. The staff was amazing and the food was good! When you go to an all inclusive you shouldn't expect 5 star meals, but all the food we had was good! Great selections at the buffets and never lines at the restaurants. It was a great mix of families and spring breakers. We will definitely be back!

The resort itself was beautiful. Rooms were kept very clean and well stocked. All is the staff were so friendly,. Every staff member we would pass would always get us with a genuine smile and a good morning./day. Bartenders learned quickly what you liked to drink and would have it ready as i was coming up to them. We were very impressed with the quality of breakfast/dinners. The buffets always had a few different items to try which was nice. . We tried 2 of the specialty dining and enjoyed them very much. We would definitely return to this property.

Pros: the beach was beautiful, breakfast was pretty good, the rooms were very clean and the grounds well maintained. All the wildlife at the resort was a bonus for our kids! Our kids really enjoyed the white party at Tequila on Friday night. Cons: the food options for lunch and dinner were pretty terrible, other than salad or fresh fruit, birds were eating off the buffet and people’s plates at the buffets, people leaving their towels on deck chairs all day to reserve them but not use them (making it hard to find a spot at times), and the entertainment was pretty terrible (they tried but honestly my daughter’s year end dance recital was more well done) - timing was off, music was off etc.
