It is an all-inclusive that charges for most of the amenities, food, and drinks!!!
The rooms are in poor condition, the AC makes terrible noises, the bathroom didn´t drain, the night show was bad, and I couldn't sleep because of the noise in the room.
The food is bad.

Customer service was great. Staff was really helpful, polite and friendly. The path you walk to get to the beach close to the italian restaurant smells terrible, just like the area close to the wood bridge where there is a fish tank. They should do something about this. Food was really tasty and there was a wide variety of things to choose from. Alcoholic beverages on the other hand were not good since cocktails were made with lots of artificial ingredients. I suggest changes are made. There's a coffee shop which I loved. It is open the whole day and they offer hot and iced coffee. This is part of the all inclusive plan.

The staff was the key! Everyone here was so nice. The food was good and the grounds themselves were beautiful. The inclusive bar was a bit deceiving because there didn't seem to be much available but it was okay.

Room was clean, staff was outstanding, especially Edward at doorman/bellman and Carolina, the banquet/wedding coordinator who did an outstanding job, not only with the wedding we attended, but with putting together the private dinner on the night prior to the wedding. The wait and bar staff were outstanding and attentive. The food and drink were better than I expected.
