"Perfect for proximity to the airport. I stayed one night with my family because we arrived late. They have a restaurant in the hotel so we didn’t have to explore outside late for dinner and the complimentary breakfast was good. Pool looked nice but didn’t use, hotel was clean and modern."

"We had an excellent stay here. All of the food was good, especially from the restaurants. A special shout out to Eduardo, his service was attentive and friendly. The pool is small and very hard to find seating. It seems people go early and reserve chairs by putting a towel on them, half of the seats were empty but reserved by someone, kind of frustrating. The beach is where we spent most of our time, as the pool had no place to sit. The suite was beautiful and clean, with an amazing ocean...

"Great Resort Overall! Spend the extra for the Ocean View Room!! Limited food selection and needed reservations for the better food (not enough room for all guests with reservations, some were left out of this opportunity). Unlimited drinks! Shows/Entertainment was ok at best! Great views! Reasonable massages ON THE BEACH! (We went twice) Resort is impossible to reach via phone or email prior to arrival. Do NOT rent a car! Order a shuttle online prior to your destination. Any shuttle service...

In the new room The shower door didn’t close so I had to hold it with my foot otherwise I really did have a great time there. Staff was great and the facility was very clean. I got two massages while there and that was really great too. You can also book excursions through the hotel however make sure you ask about drop off location because some of the excursions...
