8.8/10 Excellent! (128 reviews)

It was very unique. I highly recommend it. Some suggestions to make it more unique include: allowing us to charge phones in our rooms; make it more eco friendly by having people fill up water bottles from a main dispenser rather than small single use bottles. We liked the fact that the kayaks and snorkels were included. More local food choices on the menu.

7.4/10 Good! (938 reviews)

The hotel is beautiful very clean. The food choices for it to be a dreams hotel was very limited. The desert and fruit area was very limited. The staff moved with no urgency. Having to chase somebody down in the restaurants so they can at least take your drink orders. When going to the “preferred” areas for food there is little to no staff which lead us to not staying and going to the buffet. We payed for preferred and didn’t get to fully enjoy it. The preferred bar by the pool was great tho. The bartender he was great ! Everyone was very friendly though. The most upsetting part was being woken up at 8am multiple times throughout the stay by housekeeping asking if we wanted our room cleaned ! Overall it was a nice hotel just lacked staff and service
