Overall the resort was amazing. Staff awesome. Food 10/10. Drinks 10/10. The property itself is gorgeous, plenty of space, clean and very safe. My issues were housekeeping servicing the room in the evening. Always having to ask for new face towels grew a bit annoying esp when you're ready to shower. Also whenever we ordered room service via the secret box, they would still knock until we got up to answer, which defeated the purpose. I also wish the restaurants and bars stayed open longer. Oh and good luck securing an umbrella at the pool/beach unless you're up at 6am. I didn't like the bed either, too hard, but my fiancé didn't mind it. Other than that, I had a great time and would definitely come back. Read less

I enjoyed all of the amenities and was so thrilled to experience clear water and the ability to swim with and see multiple types of fish, including multiple star fish. The beach was close to the hotel and very clean. The staff was very accommodating. Be sure to bring tip money because you wil want to show appreciation for excellent service.
