The entertainment group was nice apart from the GREAT shows!. The hotel is pretty nice. The food is great but the location gets hot fast with the food and outside temperature. I would Like a Soda machine so that many drinks don't lose their taste and carbonation.

Staff was excellent and extremely helpful in fulfilling our needs. Rooms were very clean and comfortable. One staff member in particular, Rosanna at the La Casta Blanca Beach Restaurant, went above and beyond to help us in anyway she could. We would highly recommended this resort for a fun and relaxing experience.

Nice and comfortable small resort

You get what you pay for, so don't expect this to be like Punta Cana. The rooms are not contemporary but it's very clean and comfortable. If you don't like large crowds of vacationers this place is good since this resort is smaller and sits by itself. The pool is large. The food options at the buffet is not huge, but it's varied and taste very good. The beach is not as nice as Punta Cana since the sand is not white, but it's shallow and it's calm. Overall it's a nice place to relax with or without kids.
