Overall a great resort. It’s location makes it a good option to explore the island. The food at the buffet was fresh. The only minus is there is Only 1 à la carte restaurant on site. If you can have a réservation, the service is so quick you barely can chew your food. All the personnel was beyond perfect !!! Travelling with 4 kids from 7 to 15, its was a great resort.
