    The lack of English. For all entertainment, they only play and speak Spanish . They did not catered to the English speak guests.

    The rooms were dirty, air conditioning didn’t work, property smelled like a backed up sewer, had a live roach in my bed, bathroom had vomit on the toilet seat and on the back of the door, so the bathroom smelled like vomit. When the maintenance guy came to check the air conditioner, he checked to make sure the patio door was closed & left.

    Some of the pools were nice but some weren’t the cleanest. The steakhouse was good.

    There was no hot water in my room for the first two and a half days which made it incredibly uncomfortable.

    The property was very large and gave options if i wanted to be around the commotion or stay in a relaxing area

    I didn’t like the fact that the bed sheets wasn’t changed as often which led to me getting eaten by bed buds. Once I got eaten and changed room I had same problem in next room which left me paranoid at night

    The food and the people. Everyone was good vibe and always had a smile on their face. Front desk was very helpful also the bar stuff drinks can be stronger but overall I had a blast despite the BED BUDS

    The front desk didn't answer the phone in the middle of the night when next door guests were loud and disturbing. We changed room and then the odor around the area was terrible. There are some sewerage problem around the facility that smells bad.

    It was a good stay, love the staff and all the amenities but the rooms need an upgrade .

    The rooms need a upgrade, I had to be changed into another room as the first room had a smell and the sheets also had a mildew smell. The second room the AC was leaking out drips down the walls and I had to use towels on the floor, the towels were also old and the sheets. After the second room change I just stayed with the room. The towels for the pool they always ran out. They should have microwaves in the rooms so that food can be reheated for later.

    I love that the property was by the beach. The staff were very welcoming, super helpful and friendly. It was my birthday vacation and the staff made it special and memorable. The variety of food choices were good and the landscaping on the property was beautiful.

    The ambiance was fun and joyful! It's definitely a place to party.

    Sometimes after the room was cleaned, there was a weird smell, like maybe a dirty mop was used. Also, the ice machine closest to my room was broken, which was quite the inconvenience since it’s the middle of the summer.

    Beautiful resort! So many activities and a plethora of food options. The Steakhouse was exceptional and the other restaurants were excellent as well. The staff was super friendly.

    I didn’t like the fact that they didn’t honor the rate that booking.com quoted. The property was huge and I didn’t like the long walks to get to the different restaurants,beach, or the pools.

    Loved the buffet. They had a wide variety of options. The staff were very friendly. Wished they had more people to speak English but we made due.

    Staff can be rude, they don’t look at you while talking and sometimes won’t even bother to help. This is not applicable to all, we had a good experience with some servers and the spa.

    It was extremely clean! They always have activities for the guests and food is always available.
