Got to say the resort is very beautiful, the beach is so clean . The room is well equipped and has water stocked daily. The food is very good, the buffet is very organized . The resort has daily programmed activities near the pool and beach . The night show is great . The drinks are good especially the Mama Juana shot. The Only thing i would recommend to the resort is at the disco , they should put music that is for everyone, the disco only stays with national music especially bachata and merengue . Other than that the resort is great and would definitely go back again.

The resort is beautiful but the staff, service and entertainment team made the best out of our stay. They work extra hard to ensure you are having a fun time, look for you with smiles on their faces, remember your name and are just great! Loved the entertainment young people Mariano (Caramelo), Jose, Marielys, Francis, Maria, their manager and assistant manager! What a team!
