It was a great hotel for me and my family. We had a really good time and there was a lot of things to do. The pools were nice and the restaurants were great. I love that we were really close to the adventure park, and it was a short ride to Coco Beach (another popular spot). The service was great too!

this is a beautiful property and country to visit. The road to the hotel could be better. It’s fixing a lot of pot holes for 20 minutes to the hotel

Wonderful food and staff was amazing. Always happy and eager to help. Made accommodations for food as well. Always cleaned the rooms early in the morning and had fun activities to do every day.

The service was great. The only complaint would be that the restaurants close too early.
