We enjoyed the privacy and cleanliness of the property, most of the dinning experiences were great, with the Spice Market" being very impressive for a buffet. The "exclusive" Grill Restaurant for VIP guests we disappointing. However many of the other restaurants were great. For the most part the staff was very friendly, we will go back.

Out of 5 days we were staying at the resort, we had problems on all 5. We encountered a broken AC; water leak (formed a large puddle on a floor and got my stuff wet); on days 3-5 we had ant infestation that began with hundreds of ants crawling around. The staff fumigated the room twice per my request, which reduced the number of ants (although did not eliminate them), but also caused a persistent annoying smell that forced us to stay out of the room as much as we could for 2 days. About half of the high-chairs in the buffet was broken (missing the central strap, so the kid could easily slip out and fall). I was extremely disappointed by the quality of my stay, and the management didn't do much besides "we are sorry you were not satisfied"

Beautiful grounds, poor service, mediocre food

Beautiful grounds, beautiful rooms, amazing location. The accompanying butler service that comes with enclave family suite counts for 1 star by itself. However, the service was mostly dismal. 9 out of the 10 service staff we interacted with just weren't motivated. Hard to get beverages at the buffet, no one stops by to check in. Service was slow and a couple of occasions, order were forgotten. The food was lacklustre. Most were underseasoned, while some were oversalted. There are not enough restaurant options available for families. 5 of the hotel's 11 restaurants are available for family only, while 6 are exlusively adult only. Many of the adults come over to family to eat but not vice versa. Peak dinner time waits sometimes were over an hour. And a dinner can take up to 1.5 hours even though the restaurant is not full (goes back to slow service). Kids club was a joke. A few very old and broken toys. Activities schedule were often mismatched from what was published online. Probably not going back again.

Beautiful property with nice dining options and plenty to do for a family with young children. Everything was super clean and the staff was very kind and helpful. We were happy with most of the food options (would not recommend the rib eye at The Grill, it was thin, dry and hard to eat). We did the Enclave upgrade which I felt was worth it for the addituonal meal options. We used the main pool most of the time though because it was better for our kids who are still young. Also the Enclave rooms are by where they have weddings and events, so Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights were quite loud until about 10pm or so...at least that was our experience so maybe inquire with the property about room location if that would bother you. Overall we really enjoyed our stay. The resort is beautiful and everyone who works there is so friendly and ready to help, they were all great!

We stayed here for 6 nights across in December 2024 and had a wonderful time. The most impressive thing was the grounds. They were beautifully kept with gorgeous trees and vegetation. The pools were large with plenty of space and the water park was a big hit with our kids. The beach was lovely too, and having all these different areas to visit each day meant our 6 and 9 year olds were happy and entertained. The staff were lovely too. The only thing I think could be improved was the food. We tried a couple of the restaurants but you can't make reservations so this meant waiting behind 7-10 other families which didn't really work with hungry, impatient kids! Also the food in the restaurants didn't appear to be a better quality than the buffet (I had a pasta dish in the Italian restaurant where the prawns were a strange texture and definitely weren't fresh), so we stuck to the buffet after that to make the most of having a wider choice. It was also a shame that menus at the restaurants were via a QR code - I like to leave my phone in the room on holiday. Overall we had a great time and I would recommend for families!

The hotel is beautiful, VERY clean and the staff very welcoming and accommodating. I went for a weekend wedding and had a wonderful time. The only set back was our room had a moldy smell (partial ocean view) and my parents room smelled like pest control chemicals. My husband and I enjoyed a couples massage at the beautfil spa however, I did not receive the $25 per person Expedia credit for spa services that I was entitled to and had to request multiple times the bottle of wine (a welcome gift) as an Expedia VIP member. Their seems to be a lack of communication between the hotel staff and Expedia.

This is our second time staying at this resort. First time was much better. This time foot quality was not great, on our second day we all got sick, not sure if from water or from food. Room service is a charge of 10$. You cant take food to go from the buffet. Life guard is not always present on beach,, saw few older people falling, and other visitors were assisting getting out of water. It is a shame, as we were all were looking to return, but most likely will need to find new resort.
