This resort was amazing for our family vacation! Booking through Expedia provided a room upgrade and our concierge team Kena and Regina were extremely helpful and made sure we had everything we needed. The a la carte restaurant selection is great (Mediterranean, Brasilian, Japanese, etc), with each providing its own experience with top notch food and service. We were able to go parasailing, scuba diving, snorkeling and jet skiing right from the resort. Great amenities here. The water park was great for the kids as well.
