Beware** Horrible Experience
Beware* This hotel is a 2 star at best No hot water during our stay even after they moved our room, poor customer service, poor management, they yes you to death and do nothing to solve your problem. Our bathroom had hair all over it upon check in, door lock malfunctioned, locked out of our room multiple times, food service is below average, restaurant was out of half the items on their menu, hotel and rooms are outdated, pictures on we site are very deceiving, Very disappointing, would not recommend.

I liked breakfast, dinner was good. We had adequate water for drinking in the room.I also liked service at the swimming pool. I did not like the bed and the bedsheets. There were inordinate delays in room cleaning.

Best vacation EVER!... Where do I begin... This resort far exceeded our expectations, in so many ways... We looked forward to each and every day that we were there, and we really hated to leave... First and foremost, the staff was excellent... The food 😋 was soo good... All three meals were buffet style and each meal had so many choices... There were mini bars throughout the resort, to include being served on the beach... Lastly, but certainly not the least, were the beautiful monkeys, who were so gentle... We can't wait to return next vacation, and we will definitely stay much longer... Thanks for the opportunity to share...
