I had an incredible stay at this resort, with fantastic amenities and attentive service that made my holiday truly enjoyable. The rooms were clean and spacious, though they could use a bit of modernization to match the luxurious feel of the resort. The dining options were varied and delicious, but the selection could use more freshness and variety at times. Overall, it offers good value for money if you're prepared for some minor inconveniences.

I had a wonderful time at the hotel, with some truly beautiful areas and excellent snorkeling right from the beach. The rooms were clean and spacious, although a little dated, and the beachside view was fantastic. While the dining options were decent, I wished for more variety and better meal experiences. The staff were welcoming overall, but a few had less-than-stellar attitudes. Wifi could definitely be improved.
