Had an amazing time, 100% will try my hardest to return. Here are small things I wish I knew ahead of time:
—Quiet hours are NOT strictly enforced. Sometimes live music will be going past 11pm. Not a big deal but if you have a small child maybe request a room away from the stage area.
—Avoid going on a “shopping excursion” on May 1st, everything is closed for the national labor holiday
—Sargassum / sea grass is definitely a thing on the beach however they work tirelessly to take care of it. The beach is very swimable and safe. Had a great time, the water is relatively shallow for at least 50 meters from the shore
—There are non-resort vendors on the beach. 99% of them are professional, polite, and cool. One in particular was very pushy and basically came across predatory. Would have preferred to know this ahead of time to avoid this specific beach area all together. There is a LOT of beach to walk and most of it is just open without any vendors it’s just a small area that has the vendors and like I said most of them will leave you alone.
—Sufriere excursion was amazing. JT the driver was so cool.
—All the restaurants were great. My most favorite was calabash, followed by seasons.
—Vegan options were plenty! If you are vegan or vegetarian go to Seasons and order 1 of everything.
—The kids area is amazing and drop off is optional. You can just go hang with your kid!
The customer service and hospitality here is unmatched. Absolutely worth every penny. Go to this resort!
