The staff was amazing! From the reception desk to the waiters and not to mention the bartenders. Everyone was so friendly and with a great attitude some even knew me by name. We had one problem with one of our rooms but we got the issue resolved and they moved us rooms. The shows were great and the food was really good. Some all inclusive resorts the food & alcohol is not it but here I’d have to say there was something for everyone even the buffet style food was good. I would definitely come back to this hotel.

This hotel is not at all updated. It needs major upgrades. The colors are outdated, the rooms need to be repainted, it’s not only the rooms it’s the entire hotel that appears it’s not kept up to date. The food, is a one star. Food is not fresh and there are not many options available. The hotel did not cook the typical food from Costa Rica which is why people travel is to experience the culture. The pool needs to be cleaned, like a deep cleaning around the edges of the pool. The staff need to be more welcoming.

Beautiful location and very friendly, attentive staff. Food was what we expected, loved the pools, water park and proximity to the beach. Was also nice there were excursions that left from the RIU private beach. The only thing we didn't like is no reservations for dinner. They say no line for restaurants, just show up. This is not true. One night we showed up for dinner at 7 p.m. and not one restaurant could accommodate our party of 3. They explained that you must show up before the restaurants open in order to get a table. This meant we had to wrap up our excursion or timr on the beach or pool, get ready for dinner and be in line no later than 5:30 p.m. We won't be back for that reason alone.

We booked for double junior ocean view suite but they gave us king bed for 4 people, then switched room but wasnt ocean view. Rooms are very outdated. We had ants and we complianed twice. Last day Coach roache was there between screen door and slding glass door. We had to keep asking for towel, only provided three and we have four guest. Overall the resorted is outdated including outside. No proper beach acces, have to walk thru vendors selling items. Can keep going on but worst all inclusive experience.
