I would like to give this resort a 10 out of 10 staff was phenomenal. Cleanliness housekeeping was great dining options. We’re great to choose from even in room service pools were clean. The only downside was we couldn’t go into the ocean just because there was the water alert for seaweed When we arrive to the hotel we were welcomed with a drink and smiling staff. I definitely will come back later in the future.

The hotel was beautiful! The amenities and restaurants were top notch, but there are only three restaurants on site - one of which is very spendy so you’ll likely not dine there nightly…this leaves really two places for dinner if you’ll stay as long as we did (7 days). Don’t let other reviews about the beach deter you, we loved the beach. The seaweed was there but not a big deal and the water was so nice and warm. We went daily :) The staff were honestly the best part about the stay, they were some of the most (if not the most) accommodating group of people I’ve encountered at a hotel. The level of attention and enthusiasm during our stay was just incredible. Thank you especially to Antonio the amazing bellman, Karen at the concierge, Patricia (Patty) out in the pool area and Irvin at Jao. You all went the extra mile always. We appreciate you making our stay so enjoyable. Thank you!
