The rooms could use a little upgrade. There should be more chairs in the shade for free. All the good chairs are reserved. You shouldn’t have to pay for a shaded seat. For the cost of the room, you should get snorkel equipment for more than one hour. Other than that, I loved the property. Staff was excellent and the dining was great too.

Good not great - lots of kids
The room was amazing The property was nice but lots of kids - almost no place to escape if you don't have kids The beach didn't have umbrellas or nice chairs to lay on (those are at the pool) unless you paid hundreds of dollars extra Restaurants were okay - we mostly ate out Beautiful beach Lots of activities but you have to reserve everything and you get charged $50 if you no show (which is insane for something like water aerobics)

Hotel room was clean, roomy and beach and pool was great, especially pool was heated and could enjoy all the time. However, room prep and staff at the reception was not great. We booked with 4 people (2 adults and 2 kids) but only 3 towels sets were in the room, and shampoo/conditioner/body gel were all out of stock. We requested to bring another towel set and refill the shampoo etc, but towel set was brought almost an hour later, and no refill... Also, at the time of checkout, we were charged the food/drinks which we didn't ordered, and it took almost 20 min. to confirm and remove from our bill. And there were no any apologizes about that mistakes... I would say this hotel staff/service is not 5 star hotel, similar to 3-4 star hotel.

Resort condition could use improvement
Stayed for honeymoon. Great snorkeling spots but hotel condition not consistent with its price class. Multiple squeaky elevators, very noisy all day and night even a few rooms away. Hot water can take a couple of minutes, which is fine, but why not tell guests about it upfront? Wayfinding throughout the property could be improved. Annoying beeps in parking lot area and poor signage. On the plus side, beautiful landscaping, excellent turndown service, great access to towels, gear, etc. Friendly staff, great (resort priced) food options. Could be great with a but more focus on the basics.
