My experience at this resort was nothing short of extraordinary. While I had previously thought Excellence in Jamaica set the gold standard, the service here surpassed even my highest expectations. Lecia, stationed by the pizza grill, ensured a seamless flow of food and beverages, enhancing the overall relaxation of the experience. The spa merits particular mention—an unparalleled oasis of rejuvenation. I indulged in a three-hour service, entering fatigued and leaving revitalized beyond measure. While my stay was overwhelmingly positive, I must note a minor hiccup during the check-in process. Although I arrived early and my room was not immediately accessible, the resort graciously allowed me to enjoy the on-site restaurants while waiting. This thoughtful accommodation mitigated any inconvenience. I am already making plans to return in a few months, a testament to the exceptional quality of this resort. If you are considering a visit, do not hesitate. Book It!

This is our second time staying at an Excellence resort. Staff and service were friendly, helpful and responsive. Food was great, especially the mushroom risotto at Flavor Market. Our housekeeper was so kind and efficient and left us cute little animals made from towels. The only downside was the AC not working in the room for two nights and the plunge pool auto draining and not filling up for two days. Staff was able to resolve the AC issue for one night but the plunge pool issue was not resolved.

Really liked the dining options and that once you learned how to navigate the dining system for dinner, you didn't have to be concerned with reservations. The food quality for an all-inclusive was actually good on average and I would say above average overall. Staff was very friendly and pleasant. Pool drink service was non-stop! Beach area was beautiful and pool activities staff was happy and cheerful. Whoever designed the bathroom in the room was an idiot! The separate toilet room is literally 32" wide and only deep enough to sit on the toilet. When you get up from the seat, you have to make sure you won't hit your head on the bar from the door. It has a separate huge shower and a huge area for double sinks. Why they didn't take some of that area for the toilet room is beyond me. There are no bars in the toilet room so I can see that an elderly person may have difficulty getting up off the toilet! Stupid architect!! I have been going to Mexico all-inclusives for over 20 years and I would recommend this resort and would go back.
