Huge resort with private section of the beach and plenty of variety for activities, food and drink on site. In the main staff were extremely friendly, helpful and accommodating to requests. We stayed for 3 weeks and have had a great time! Standout features and individuals were: Asana restaurant (Gloria, Luis, Karla and Keshar). Food here was so good that we came back 1/3 of the nights we were here!! - Mexican a la carte (Valentina) and Brazilian also very good - Fora in the guest services team was absolutely superb, very proactive and cheerful everyday! - Also Nico in the entertainment team. However, a few issues that prevent the full 5* for us: - The rooms in the adults only section are dated compared to the rest of the resort and wristband keys are erratic. - Restaurant booking is difficult and MUST be done well in advance... Without Fora's help, this would have been very frustrating. - Reception is always busy and extremely slow as never seems to have enough staff on. It's difficult to change larger notes that the cashpoint gives for smaller ones to tip as guest services don't hold cash for this, so you end up standing in the queue for 30 mins at reception, and they often don't have notes for change anyway. The hotel should have a dedicated money service for this.

We’ve been coming here for years, and Margarita has always been our absolute favorite waitress. She is warm, attentive, and always remembers us, which makes every visit feel special. Her kindness and great service truly make the experience unforgettable. A big shoutout as well to Oscar, the chef, who consistently makes some of the best food we’ve had at the resort. Every meal is delicious and clearly made with care and talent. And of course, Isaac and Pedro, the managers, do an incredible job making sure everything runs smoothly and that guests have the best possible experience. Their attention to detail and welcoming attitude really enhance the whole atmosphere. This team is a huge reason we love coming back. Thank you all for making every visit so enjoyable!

The best 3 things about this resort: 1) ocean/beach - amazing!; 2) beds & pillows - super!; and 3) bread at the buffet. "Select Superior Adults Only" room was a step up from a Super 8 but not as nice as standard all inclusives. 5 gallon jug of water on a stand at room temp in place of bottled water in fridge. Ocean was amazing, crystal clear and 100 yards out was just above waist so no swimming ability needed but beware: SEA LICE! Stood in restaurants for 10 min waiting for someone to show up. Buffet was worst food I've had at all inclusives in 20 years. Bar & bartenders on beach were excellent. Food on beach was not excellent. Ketchup didn't quite taste like ketchup. Hot dogs didn't quite taste like hot dogs, wings were tasteless and cold. No reservations could be made for dinners as they were sold out until after our stay. Not well run but the ocean was wonderful and I'd return just for that.

We ate at Fogo de Janeiro for dinner. We did not have a reservation but we were seated immediately. Our waiter, Alfredo, was very attentive, making sure our water was filled and plates full. The food was very tasty and you can even ask for bigger portion sizes than just one slice of each meat. Overall, i would totally recommend this restaurant!!
Cody Spence
The Festive restaurant buffet and our server, Rigo, were excellent! He was very attentive and sweet with our family and had a great sense of humor. He checked in with us frequently, providing what we needed before we needed to ask. You could tell he liked his job. There were a lot of different food options and a wonderful atmosphere!
