We purchased the all inclusive food and drink. Their version of all inclusive starts at 11 am at the earliest. Which includes cold bottled water. The drinks are so watered down and we had less than an ounce of alcohol. The food caters to the Spanish clientele not tourists Coffee- You can get coffee and buns(usually dried out ones) at the coffee shop from 7-10 am only. If you want a Coffee pot in room. First you need to request one. Then you have to beg for the coffee. Oh ya you want a cup to drink it from…..Bring your own. Food- The food is the same everyday. Same thing at breakfast lunch and dinner. Relaxing beach -The marionette bands on the beach are brutal. There are several of them and they try to out do each other often playing at the same time. The beach is the least relaxing place Spanish speaking- You need to be able to speak Spanish if you want or need anything. If you’re looking for entertainment in the evening, you will get Mexican dancers, international dancers and Caribbean dancers, which I will add are all the same! Don’t want to forget the best in sat evening You will get to play bingo, ensure your Spanish is up to par! - [ ] Massage - it was a 45 min rub down.

Hotel was very nice, loved that it was close to shopping and restaurants. Beach was a little too crowded, vendors and bands were annoying but that's easily escaped by being at the pools. Overall hotel is very nice

The hotel is nice. There’s just a few things that really got under my skin. We got there early and we all know check in is at 3 pm. We had to go so they can check in our luggage and we could wonder around. The gentleman told us to come back around 1 and see if the room is ready. We come back at one and they scold us about coming early and check in was at 3. Jacuzzi was closed about 40 min early and the guard said he closed at 8 when reception says 9? We got charged for a towel that we didn’t return and we left by the pool. We didn’t get charged for what a new one would cost we got charged for what 2-3 would cost. We were two parties we got all inclusive and the other party got regular. They were brining in bed from outside and we were ordering drinks and when we went to get food the first time. They served something I didn’t like. Since I didn’t want to throw it away I asked if someone would want it. (They didn’t have all inclusive). We got scolded again, I guess maybe that one might have been my mistake BUT he also blamed the one that was brining outside beer saying she was consuming from their open bar. You do get what you pay for. Transportation, and any other attendant was great! Reception, security, management, not so great. I wouldn’t come here again
