Room was clean, staff was outstanding, especially Edward at doorman/bellman and Carolina, the banquet/wedding coordinator who did an outstanding job, not only with the wedding we attended, but with putting together the private dinner on the night prior to the wedding. The wait and bar staff were outstanding and attentive. The food and drink were better than I expected.

How about everything was disappointing ? The place was overcrowded, the weren't enough employees. Waiting lines for everything, bar, check in, reservation for restaurants, snacks.... the only good thing about this hotel was the coffe bar. The bar had cheap alcohol, the piña coladas werent coladas... like I've never seen a hotel be so cheap, they charge you for smoothies, and international beers.... honestly I would not recommend it. If you are looking to visit a hotel all inclusive, and you aren't able to get to Punta Cana. I would suggest you visit Costa Coral in Juan Dolio, much nicer , better quality food and drinks, more activities.

Everything was right but should have a premium package for drinks. Even in the Milwakee bar you have to buy a bottle. Should sell premium drinks.

The property was okay overall. We had the swim up pool room and it looks way better in pictures. The pool was extremely cold and dirty. Zero maintenance we barely had hot water to shower. The jacuzzi was cold with bubbles. Honestly the best thing there is the coffee shop and the staff who are so nice. But everything else is average and would not recommend. Too many locals which takes away from the quality. Not what I expected for an all inclusive.
