The property is clean and well kept just small. Food is decent for an all inclusive. The hardest and nastiest was breakfast, the eggs were runny, staff service was not good on none of the days. Room service app glitches a lot and they take soooo long. The drinks were terrible the alcohol selection was bottom tier. The bartenders act like the dont see you or hear. One day i sat there for 8 minutes before danelia said anything to me she was wiping counters and glasses pretending to be busy. The worst part of the resort is entertainment and nightlife. They only have a silent disco party available for some nights. Its literally nothing to do. After sunset find something away from the resort you will be bored out of your mind! Lastly i ordered a bath bar for a spa bath they never brought it to me room but they also didnt charge me!

Comparing w/other all inclusive Carribean resorts it fell behind. Svc was inconsistent, some great employees and others not good. A couple of mgt issues: they ran out of beach towels at 3 on hot day and they also cut off water to rince sandals at 4. No app available with daily activities. Value for money not good. We went during the holidays, but the package was twice as much as other resorts that offered much more.
