We had an amazing time ! There’s lots to do on this beautiful property. The nightly entertainment was great. Food and drinks were really good. The kids didn’t want to leave.. they had a lot of fun in the pool, beach and the kids club.What really elevated our experience and what will bring us back - was the staff ! Everyone was super helpful and always greeted us with a smile. A special to thanks to Eliutt - our concierge and his team - they were exceptional and made our stay memorable !

Elliut was an excellent concierge from beginning to end. Going above and beyond to make our dad's birthday special with decorations. He was so patient and our big group tried to decide about dinner reservations and help to make our requests happen. our room was kept very clean and all staff were kind and helpful. Food was delicious and so many options?

Great hotel has everything you need. High end restaurants but you don’t have to worry about the bill. I enjoyed all restaurants. Great atmosphere, family oriented. My concierge was Eliutt he was great. He made our stay very enjoyable and we were very happy. We were treated with kindness. I have visited different all inclusive hotels some a little more expensive and others less expensive but this one is the best of all. The concierge’s supervisor was very beginning. They even let you enjoy installations before they have your room ready and you can also check out late, enjoying all the amenities and your luggage can stay in the lobby. I recommend the family selection you won’t regret.

Our stay was good overall but we really didn’t find the food at some of the restaurants very flavourful. I was disappointed with the Bamboo, Italian and the Mexican. There were some good things on each menu but nothing that would make us want to return. The service and the staff were excellent at the resort and we had no complaints with how friendly and welcoming they were. The Nest & the International were our favourites but sometimes the food was inconsistent and not always hot. Drinks were good but I found the bar ran out of certain things often & we would have to order something else. Also, the coffee bar in the Family Selection only opened at 11 am and there were no instructions on how to use the equipment so we never went back. The resort was a good size for our family and we enjoyed the spa and my kids loved having room service. The rooms were a good size but a little outdated and with 2 teenagers the pull out bed was too small. I had asked our Expedia rep about options and the manager was supposed to contact me but that never happened. For these reasons we would likely not return to this resort.

Resort is great. Can tell it’s older, but every single day someone was working on maintenance things like painting, etc. Great to see. Family Selection side was totally worth the upgrade. The pool was so much quieter and access to The Nest made meal times calm and relaxed as opposed to trying to get to the buffet before a rush. Elioot was one of our butlers and was fantastic. Having the Butlers book al la carte restaurants meant we had one booked every night we were there. Japanese and Mexican were highlights. Mexican was my kids favorite as they made fresh guacamole right at your table. Kids club activities weren’t communicated about well at all but the activities themselves and the team were great. We had a safety incident with a hairdryer without a proper guard catching and pulling out hair and overall their reaction/response to it was good. They comped us 2 passes to the hydrotherapy circuit at the spa. I would not recommend paying for this as the experience wouldn’t be worth the cost. There were also massive numbers of bees coming out of the drains at the spa pool and no one seemed to be dealing with them. The performers at the evening shows were very talented. Would recommend this resort for sure.

We stayed in the Family Selection with 2 other families. The staff was amazing, especially Moses who was very friendly and helped calm my son down when he tripped and fell on the morning we were leaving. We ended up upgrading to an ocean view suite as the first room we were assigned looked onto construction of a new building next door. The entertainment for the kids was great and the Family Selection pool and restaurant were perfect for families travelling with children.

When we arrived, we’re welcomed with drinks and an Expedia concierge (Eliutt) to guide us to the room, as well as telling us a little bit about the hotel. We got a room with the view of a construction site, which was not the greatest. The pools were not very clean; it might be due to spill of drinks. They have a beautiful beach and many activities such as surfing lessons. The only restaurant I would recommend is The Nest. The Nest has so much good food. We would like to thank Expedia concierge Eliutt for his excellent service during our stay. He kept in touch with us on the very first day and until the day we checked out.

Overall, our family, and group of 11 total had a good time. The food at all of the a la carte restaurants was fantastic. The Bamboo Japanese restaurant I could have eaten at every night. The pools were good, but the activities that were scheduled for kids were often late or didn’t happen at all. The rooms were okay, our A/C didn’t really work and was never fixed, our room was missed for cleaning once, and the toilet ran non stop which was loud. I attempted to order room service one night and it just never showed up which was disappointing. Obviously we didn’t spend a lot of time in the rooms but they definitely need some work. The bartending staff was great and made delicious drinks for both adults and kids. Beach access was easy and lots of activities there like body boarding and surfing. It was a good place but not one that I’m going to book repeatedly.

Overall it was a good stay. Property could use some upkeep. The gardens were dusty from construction next door. The pools did not feel clean. The property needed better signage/directory to get to places. Staff overall were nice but we noticed a change when we wouldn’t accept a discussion on their travel club program. Right away they hit us up on this and after a long day of travel that was the last thing we wanted. They rushed our greeting/explanation of amenities so found ourselves guessing the entire time. Food could be better, I wanted more authentic Mexican food. I get they want to provide a luxurious experience but as an American I want to experience Mexican culture. Once we turned downed the travel club we were never offered any type of experience or excursions. Nightly entertainment is great and the area where it’s set up is great, lots of seating and kids entertainment was fun and age appropriate!
