There were so many reasons why my husband and I disliked this resort but I will keep it simple. DO NOT GO. We got a deal and spent close to 4K CAD from Dec 1-8. Terrible food, absolutely unacceptable soliciting, and a bad language barrier. My husband and I went for our FIRST EVER all inclusive trip for our HONEYMOON and I was also celebrating my BIRTHDAY and we couldn t be any more displeased. We got absolutely 0 upgrades for anything the room was nothing special and the jacuzzi tub took hours to fill. I read previous reviews about the soliciting and simply thought people must just be too picky while on vaca well they couldn t have been more correct. The soliciting was ENDLESS. You couldn t be on the beach without constantly being bothered do not misunderstand me when I literally mean EVERY 10 MINUTES someone would bother you. Then just as you thought you could get away and enjoy a nice lunch or dinner, no. 3 or 4 times during your meal people would come around trying to sell you bottles of overpriced wine. Which on top of the food already being terrible this is simply unacceptable. not to mention when you re trying to order your meals at the restaurants the waiters can t write/speak/ or understand english. very frustrating but you re so hungry you will simply eat whatever they decide to bring you. Then you think let s get to the bar and drink away all these frustrations, well, not quite. Every bar was so inconsistent sometimes a simple gin and tonic was unbearable to drink, the list of drinks never tasted anything like the list of ingredients shown and you definitely get sick of presidente. I was looking forward to drinking out of a coconut and to my surprise they offer this only on Saturdays which we missed out on. I truly hope this review has helped steer you away from this resort, it was such a huge let down for us. No matter if we were given a free trip to go back tomorrow we would not return.
