Friendly staff. Loved how clean the property was. Well maintained. Loved seeing after every meal the cleaning process started. Done well ! Beach clean and safe. Security always around. Well lit at night. Lots of birds and palm trees. Loved the quiet adult only pool. Nice jazz music at breakfast and in the main desk sitting area. Highly recommend this all inclusive resort.

We loved the hotel and the service, the only thing I would like is that you to fix the floors around the pools, they are raised and it is dangerous for children who play around with the wet floor, my daughter tripped and haired her foot.

Kathia

Liked: Cleanliness
The food was extremely limited and overall not appetizing. The reserved restaurants should all be in an enclosed space. Keep the animals off the dining areas at least. Cats and dogs were everywhere. The property needs more staff that can communicate in English. And keep the adult pools open later than 5pm. Add a disco or club on the premise for dancing.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
No air in lobby, open roof so when it rains you have to run to get some coverage. No ac in the bathrooms, insects ALL OVER THE PLACE. Food was good overall, staff not so friendly as much as the waiters. All rooms are muggy, feeling wet and congested. I wouldn’t recommend this place at all. I rather pay for food and stay at a cleaner nicer place.

Tropical Paradise

The property was beautifully landscaped, the staff was friendly and the rooms were clean and comfortable. There were cats and dogs (birds,iguanas, crabs and a snake!) on property but they seemed healthy and well cared for. The food and drinks were good and a lot of variety.
