We were offered a room upgrade after the first night to a much quieter part of the resort by the amazing dity manager Alesha. The natural beauty of the resort is beautiful, including snorkeling in the protracted marine preserve and stunning sunsets!!! All the staff were exceptional and a soecial mention to the chefs who worked tirelessly to produce excellent meals every time!! CAN'T wait to return!
