We had a good time at this resort. Thankful for the two front desk person Dilan and (I can’t remember his name) who spoke English and who were able to help us with check in and solve any issues we had with our stay. Dining options were limited and some of the food was not very tasty. We were confused one night when the buffet was closed and we were told we needed to have a reservation for the other 3 restaurants but few of us went to the front desk and our concerns were speedily addressed and we had reservations in 20 minutes. The pool and the grounds were nicely kept. Rooms were cleaned daily but the rooms were huge with sparsely any furniture. Limited supply of bottle water in the room especially for family of 4, we were given 2 small bottles each day. 1 night we had half of one bottle left. They only replaced 1 bottle instead of 2 bottles. Neomi from Gema tours was excellent. She assisted us with our excursions and checked in on us the day of and even after our tours to ensure we had a good time. Would be helpful in the future if there is a list of nightly events/shows that will take place.
