The rooms were everything we needed, the staff and restaurants were great, the beach was spectacular, the water was warm and clean and no coral or rocks, my wife loved her massages, all in all a fantastic place. Evening entertainment was a bit lacking and they could use a bit more variety for lunches.

Overall the property was fine. Grounds were clean and rooms were cleaned daily. However, bar service was subpar. Bartenders gave preference to those leaving extra tips. I lost a pair of Tiffany shades in the buffet's restroom. The staff claimed a guest did find them and it was the guest's responsibility to return them to lost and found. There was no food/drink service at the beach. You have to walk to the bar and snack bar to order and then carry your food and drinks back to the beach. Limited food options at the buffet and most were not great. Food at Mexican restaurant was great. Italian restaurant was okay.

Sound proof rooms as best that can be done. The doors to rooms do nothing but bang when closed. It was so noisy. Doors n people/kids walking by rooms were noisy because there is no soundproofing of the doors n walls. Place anti slip material on stairs. They are terribly slippery when they get wet. I almost fell couple times. Would have been nice to have blow dryer in rooms. AC worked fine n tv. There was no hot water for a shower on one day. Staff was courteous.

This was our first time staying at an all-inclusive. We came down to Mexico for dental work. I wouldn’t say this place is five stars but we liked it because it was small but it had everything we needed it. Two wonderful pools, a beautiful beach with lounge, chairs, and umbrellas! The two à la carte restaurants were OK. The buffet is outstanding. It’s really good. The rooms were also very clean and I didn’t feel that they were old. We are very comfortable here and the staff was very friendly. I think this is a great place to bring a large family, kids, couples or if you’re traveling by yourself.
