My stay at the resort was absolutely delightful. The beach was stunning, and perfect for snorkeling, which I thoroughly enjoyed. The staff were incredibly attentive and made sure we had everything we needed. However, the all-inclusive dining was somewhat hit or miss, and I felt the drink options could be improved. Overall, it’s a beautiful spot with fantastic scenery, but a few adjustments in dining could enhance the experience.

I had an amazing stay at this resort! The location is perfect, just a short boat ride from the airport, and the entire property is beautifully landscaped with plenty of private spots. The rooms are clean and comfortable, but they could benefit from a bit of modernization to truly feel like a luxury escape. While the dining options were varied and delicious, it was disappointing to find extra charges for small amenities like water. Overall, a great value for a tropical getaway!
