In overall we had a great vacation. The food was great and surprisingly food at the buffet was better than at the restaurants. Rooms was clean ( except we killed several cockroaches). Towels and bedsheets were worn out and yelloish color. Hard to find shade on beach

Nice property. Good service inside the hotel except the beach (just a couple of waiters and took a while to see them come back). Beach is awesome, one of the widest beachfront areas with at least 100ft (30m) . Unfortunately seaweeds were terrible during our stay, affecting all resorts. Food is decent for an all inclusive. The specialty restaurants are a bit too small and not too upscale, could get the same or similar food in the daily dinner buffet. Night shows were nice, good dancers and singers. During the day not too many activities for teenagers and kids though, this property definitely falls short on that one. Regarding room cleaning service it was outstanding with plenty of clean towels everyday! Enjoyed my time in the hotel but I don’t think I would come back. Recommendable for couples looking for a relaxed environment, specially +55 yrs old.
