Definitely one of the best resorts I’ve been to in a long time! Variety of food was fantastic! On nights that we went to the buffet instead of a restaurant, it was probably even better. Beach was terrific, staff was friendly, everything was clean, could’ve asked for a better vacation!

The hotel is huge and some of the rooms are very far from the main areas. Most of the time the hot water pressure in the shower was very low and it was difficult to shower. Pool slides are nice but my kids found them a bit small. The food selection was good and the teens club was great for the kids but opens after 15:00.

Our recent stay was excellent. The food was awesome with such a wide variety of foods to choose from at the buffet. The food was very good at the à la cart restaurants that we went to. The beach was awesome and very relaxing. The only negative is that the rooms could definitely use some love. The employees were awesome as well. We signed up and became Royal Elite members on this trip and were very impressed with the extras that come with that. They truly make you feel like you part of the family. Thank you to everyone at Sandos. My sister and I will be there at the end of January. We look forward to seeing you all soon. 😊

Room was clean and cleaning and lobby staff was very friendly. Some of the staff at restaurants or bars not so much but overall the stay was nice. My only feedback is the train system. My suggestion would be for a line to be created for those that have arrived first to ride the train. The current system put those who are vulnerable not be able to ride the train and have to wait for the next. Right now its like survival of the fittest to ride the train.
