This trip had to be the worst I’ve taken. Resort was filthy, roaches around the food and the rooms were dirty even areas covered in mold!!! sheets on the bed were all stained and smelled like mildew, contacted house keeping and after changing it the new sheets were still stained and smelly! Lots of stains around curtains and throughout the room, certain things in the room were already broken when we got there (example screen door was broken and safe lock box was broken which made me feel super uncomfortable! Staff was not friendly when coming in or checking in and we did not feel like we got a breakdown of anything to do there or how to get around. Lots of harassing from the workers daily about doing this and that when we specifically told them over and over we had already done it or were not interested. I get this is a tourist place but we come to replace not to get harassed! Again food was super unappetizing and half if not most of the time the food was completely raw. Super unprofessional about transportation even when booking with Expedia, we had paid $70 for round trip from airport to resort and the last day no one had record of us paying nor can they confirm we paid. I had paid in cash because for some reason my card didn’t want to accept payment(now I know why with these scammers) we paid cash and they reassured me I was in the system and they even had a receipt for themselves. Last day they charged me another $30 to get to airport. Horrible and nasty experience!!

The hotel is beautiful, beautiful architecture and the outdoor areas well maintained and clean. The reception was immediate, they placed our luggage in an area designated for it, they placed the bracelet on us and gave us the green light to enjoy everything the hotel offers, without limits or restrictions. The room is clean with everything you need. Five restaurants, we all visited them, I don't have a favorite, in all of them I had the best experience and the best service, there is more food to choose from and without limitations, everything is already billed. The beach is beautiful, soft sand at the bottom, no rocks, no shells, very pleasant temperature and normal waves, turquoise blue water and any number of lounge chairs under the coconut trees that provide spectacular shade. A relaxing view that anyone needs after several months of intense work. The service and entertainment staff are incredible, adorable and wonderful people who work hard and strive to give you the best service. There are a variety of entertainment options that as the days go by and according to your tastes and preferences you will decide which ones to choose. In general, my vacation exceeded my expectations and without a doubt I will return soon.

Food was good. Bar and restaurant staff friendly and helpful. No bath towels in our room when we arrived. Still none after three hours and several calls. Several half empty soda bottles in fridge when we arrived. Bed very uncomfortable- sore back all week after sleeping. Terrible fountain drinks at pool bar. All ice machines in hotel not working. Room details listed two double or king bed - despite several messages including one through Expedia, still had two doubles upon check-in. Fortunately resolved. Room details also listed free return airport transfer, which they denied requiring a $40 cab ride. All in all, rather disappointing.
