Pros: the resort is in a great location with lots of amenities and restaurants. The grounds are large with reasonbly sized pools and a nice beach. Check-in was quick and easy and the staff are friendly. The resort is beautiful and has terrific views.

Cons: most of the loungers at the pools are reserved cabanas that are almost always empty. So if you want to hang around the pool for a bit, but not for long enough to justify renting a cabana, then you may be hard-pressed to find vacant loungers, because even though most of the loungers are empty, you can't use any of them since most are reserved. There are also very few trees umbrellas, or cabanas (that aren't reserved) to provide shade near the pool. So if you are sunburnt, you will have nowhere to go with shade. A major con was the lack of a system for verifying people's age at the pool bar. I went with my partner and we are both in our twenties and frequently get asked to provide ID. The problem with this at the pool bar is our ID is not waterproof. So even though we are of age, we were often denied service at the pool bar since we didn't bring our wallets into the pool. The resort would benefit from a wrist-band system that all other resorts I have been to have implemented.
