I really try to avoid writing 1-Star reviews but this resort made me think it was almost a joke, at times.
I didn t golf, which seems to be one of the main attractions, so I can t comment on that. The golf course, incidentally, was probably one of the only things open. You should know before you book that pretty much everything closes at 5:00. That s right, 5:00. Unless you want some drinks, you might be lucky for them to stay open until 7:00. Good luck getting dinner when your check in is at 4:00. Oh, and pretty much all of your other options are a solid 10-15 minute drive down the island so hopefully you re able to squeeze that in before closing. Don t be looking for a drink on the beach watching the sunset because it isn t happening.
The pools are ice cold. Almost $1400 for 3 nights would make you believe that management could afford a heated pool, but you d be mistaken. One lukewarm hot tub with bath water might suffice if there weren t 18 million screaming kids in it, but you won t be that lucky.
To summarize, this is a resort in which the rooms are standard, nothing is ever open, and the amenities are incredibly low-rent. Do yourself a favor and skip this one, you ll throw a rock and hit a nicer hotel.
