A++++++ Resort!

This is by far the best resort I have ever stayed at. I will definitely be back again! Thank you to Fatima our butler and Ricardo our driver who went beyond and above for our stay. I love how the resort does not use plastic! If there was one complaint it would be to have a sign up system for pickleball so more people can participate. The food was great, the views, the app, shows, and most importantly the staff! This is a big resort!

The property was well maintained and clean. My wife and I enjoyed each of the restaurants and the buffet. The pool and beach are beautiful and clean! We also took advantage of several of the fit and fun classes they offered. The boot camp, strong, and kick boxing sessions were all great workouts with engaging and energetic trainers. Definitely recommend the property we had an amazing time and would not hesitate to book theirs again!
