This property is ABOVE AND BEYOND what we thought we would be getting into. We have stayed at a lot of all-inclusive and were expecting the average. BUT this resort absolutely was above and beyond! The property, the wildlife, the STAFF <3, the FOOD (OMG), the drinks! The Gin Bar! I can't rave enough about The Fives and CAN'T wait to return! We were there during Hurricane Grace, they went above and beyond to communicate, make us feel safe, provided take-to-our-room-food (restaurants and room service were shut down for safety), and reopened everything as quickly possible. I was impressed with every part of our stay, but especially how they handled the hurricane. The food and drinks are INCREDIBLE! The Gin Bar made my whole trip, we loved spending time there smoking hooka and having tasty drinks. The alcohol isn't like most all-inclusive, they had top shelf (for additional) and tons of "middle" grade (included). Marly Coffee was also a great experience, we tried to the ice cream shop but seemed to miss it every time we went lol. Couple pieces of advice- SEE the Mayan Show if they have it. IT WAS INCREDIBLE. Paint the ceramics at the main pool- the artist who works down there is AMAZING and will absolutely turn your piece into a masterpiece to bring home! We ended up doing several pieces. He's also just a gem. Tip him, he deserves every cent (as does ALL the staff). Eat at the burger place... holy smokes, to DIE FOR! Find Fernando, he's THE BEST! GO! You will love it!
