Great entertainment team! They were engaging and made sure everyone (all ages) had fun. The team was friendly and energetic. The property also has nice beach areas. Lots of palm trees for shade. The spa was nice. The food was just okay. The specialty restaurants were hard to schedule, we had 4 people and could not reserve all 4 at one time. Bring cash with you. Most excursions didn't take credit cards and there is no ATM on site.

The property is very clean, the staff is friendly. The food was good. Only little disappointment was: the 24 hours cafe did not have breakfast food at 6:30 am - we had to leave at 7 am and did not have time to have breakfast at Negril buffet.

This was my second trip to this resort. They don't disappoint. I am so happy I returned. The food options are plentiful and the drinks while watered down still hit the spot. The staff is top notch and my hat is off to the training team. I will definitely come back.
