The food was less desirable. Maybe offer appetizers or cheese and crackers. Sandwiches for lunch instead of sliced turkey and cheese with no bread. More salad selections. Different pasta dishes. Breakfast was always cold unless you got an omelet.

Value resort so the rooms are outdated as are some common areas. Beds comfy though. There were quite a lot of easy updates that should be done that would go a long way. Food was okay… only 1 non buffet option that was a bit challenging to get into. Coffee shop was only coffee and tea… no fun coffee drinks and pastries as I’ve seen at other resorts but that was ok. Shout out to Delcia in the buffet for her help and smile, the omelet makers who were awesome and to the towel lady who was so pleasant. Now… the beach was phenomenal! Gorgeous spot, pretty easy to get chairs, not crowded, views spectacular. Staffing was hit or miss .. bar staff seemed short staffed and a bit grumpy …dining staff and front desk was mostly nice and helpful. Easy to get taxi service to get around the island.

Rooms were absolutely terrible. Understaffed, did not get room service entire trip. Called for room service and was told staff isnt on the clock yet. The bathroom was filthy, had to clean it myself and the amenities are a bit outdated. We also experience a power outage and was not notified unless you went to the desk to complain. The staff was overall pleasant and the beach is a great view. I do not recommend staying here

As I read from previous reviews, rooms are small and run down, not spotless, but overall clean. The food is good, the cocktails are fabulous (not the wine though), the staff are lovely and the beach and swimming pools are amazing. To me it was worth it just for the beach.

Beach beautiful blue waters; Room clean, beds soft, blanket in closet for usage; easy parking, food average in all restaurants (The Palms buffet, Pizza reservation restaurant, The Grill on the beach), limited restaurants and open times; Bars nice alcohol pour %, one beer choice, low level quality liquor; All in all quality matches reasonable All-Inclusive price.

Will not go back. This whole resort needs renovations with major updates. Friendlier staff would be nice. 1 restaurant and you have to make reservations at the desk the morning of and they have a very limited number they except. The buffet is less than appealing, there is about 7 things to choose from to eat and that’s it. They do not help with food allergies (gluten free), they say “we don’t cater to that”. There is nothing to do here, there is a swim up bar but it’s never open, you have to get out and go to the bar up top. The beach is about the only things that’s good here! If your looking for low key sit around and do nothing with very old rooms than this is the place for you!
Bathroom very small, especially the shower and it had mold on the ceiling and floor.  No shelves to put your things.
This is the window in the bathroom, just a screen on the other side, so it’s open at all times.
The door is also only covered by a screen and those flap things so never  any privacy for talking.
The rooms were not terrible, just need a major facelift

Beautiful beaches, rooms were basic, maybe in need of a refresh. Were clean (ish) on arrival however on a 10 day stay there is only one clean. Most of the staff were friendly, smiley and couldn’t do enough to help, others it was though I was an inconvenience, no consistency between the reception staff and what I was being told by one seemed like a huge issue to another. Coconut grill was very slow, sometimes taking 40 mins or more for a burger and fries. Wide variety of food and plenty to choose from

Looks ok from the outside. Checked in Thursday afternoon informed front desk no hot water. waiting 24 hrs for another room after 3 trips to front desk. second room was ok but no light in the hallway and stairs area. complaint twice before they replaced the light but left the burnout ones on the floor. same whenever you need something. we had to repeatedly ask front desk for towels sometimes 3 times before they delivered it. door was good however sometimes when you are seated and go for your food upon return they give your seat to someone else.
