The staff is incredible, they made us feel like their only guests in every way. And the food is to die for! I have two new all-time-favorite dishes after dining here. There are a limited number of units, making the experience feel very exclusive. We had the private beach all to ourselves for an entire afternoon. If you're into the all-inclusive...

SAND DIAMOND HOTEL

10/10 Excellent
"Everything was perfect, but it was kinda scary for me cause I wake up at 12:00 in the night and like I saw something in the room so from that night I never sleep without the lights, to make it more creepy they had a bible in the drawer. Don’t get me wrong everything is perfect I would stay again but I would leave the light on cause it’s creepy without the light 😂"
