We could tell they were still recovering from the hurricane but everything was clean. Staff was friendly and campus was nice and lots of foliage. Loved the wild life too
Charlotte, 5-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The staff were absolutely amazing here! The live entertainment was fun and entertaining. The fire show was one of the best shows ever accompanied by a beach party. 10/10 would come back here. If possible ask to stay in buildings 1-5. They are the buildings closest to the entertainment pool.

Aaron J, 4-night trip

4/10 Fair

It was a mediocre property, definitely needs updates or a rebuild soon. We did enjoy our time at the beach. Had to wake up to get beach chairs by 6:30 so thankfully I’m an early riser! Staff were kind and helpful.
Wendy Charlene, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

The resort was nice, but they did charge us a fee for “stained” linen.
Jasmine, 7-night trip

6/10 Good

Overall our stay was good. The food was okay, the grounds were nice (but the lobby and some of the main building areas need to be updated and have better lighting added), and the ease of booking specialty restaurants was nice, but not having hot water in your room all week and lack of organization in the lobby for check in and questions was frustrating. If I was looking for a get away to somewhere warm again and the price was right I would stay here again.

I enjoyed my stay and felt welcomed.
Frederick, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

A lot of walking between beach & rooms. The golf cart shuttles were nice but not super convenient. Resort should invest in more pool chairs, if you didn’t reserve chairs at 7am, you had to sit on the concrete. Restaurant options were acceptable, the ala carte restaurants were the best!
Koni, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

The resort, pools and beach were all beautiful. Great food, but must book restaurants as soon as you arrive to get in for dinner the second day, which is okay as the buffets are also excellent. Our only concern was that we didn’t confirm that transport from airport to resort (and back) was included - just incorrectly assumed it was, as it always has been with all-inclusive vacations. It was an additional $200 USD for round-trip e-taxi which was quite convenient once we realized that was our only option at that early hour.
Barry Kenneth, 7-night trip

Horrible check in experience the rooms were dirty.
