The restaurants were only open as specific times towards the late afternoon. There was one open during the day but if you were sitting in the preferred area, you were not allowed to order from that menu and the food on the preferred menu was not good and had very little variety or choice. We had a representative of the resort asked if we had received the coupons we were supposed to be given and when we told her we had not, she advised to follow her. This turned into a pitch for their timeshare. When we declined, she asked us over and over again why we would turn that down. The coupons we would have received were all based on going to that timeshare presentation. The food was beyond bad and the drinks had very little alcohol. I watched the bartender make a drink and he didn't even include a full shot. Finally, the sink in our bathroom fell out of the basin and came crashing down and broke into many pieces and could very well have injured my daughter who was in there at the time. I called the front desk and they responded as though that was something that happened all the time. I would absolutely NEVER stay there again.

ALL of the food was excellent. Not hard to seat our group of 12 at any restaurant. Every employee was cheerful and seemed to love their job. Manuela was an excellent waitress on the beach. Check in and check out went smoothly. I went to the spa with my daughters and their friend. Did the relaxation massage/hydrotheray/mini facial. It was all excellent.

Fantastic beach & staff … really enjoyed our family vacation. It was a great size for kids under 11 — not too big to navigate & easy to keep an eye The beach area was perfect—- nice & sandy, no weeds. The food was good. There was really only 1 restaurant that was so so. World cafe buffet was fabulous. Rooms are smaller & it is an older hotel but we knew that going in so it is what it is. Would stay again as long as we were guaranteed the room that we wanted.
