I have been to over 20 all inclusives in Cancun and Punta Cana. This property stands out in many ways. It is inside a gated golf community that is safe and quiet with many shops/restaurants and places to see including a skate park, Mayan ruins, and swimming with dolphins. We rented golf cart for 24 hours for $40 and was able to park at the property for free. The kids loved the 2 slide water park. I would highly recommend the preferred club due to the private pool, private breakfast and lunch restaurant, upgraded pool bar and club lounge. It is also less windy at the preferred pool. You are also able to order food pool side at the preferred section. The property also has a natural pool along the beach that was great for snorkeling. The beach itself is calm due to rock breaks offshore and also offered free paddle boarding/ kayaks to use. Yea the alcohol is watered down as it is at all all inclusives, but the food at all restaurants ranged from very good to great, you won’t find a better deal for everything you get at this property.
