All the pools made it nice because it was never overcrowded. The beach spot is nice, it has shaded areas. The entertainment and shows were decent; high energy.
The atmosphere was great. The pool parties were a blast. They messed up several of our rooms on the first night and we had to switch the next day which was a big pain. Overall great place to stay.
This hotel is the best I’ve stayed at in a long time. The staff is amazing, Manuel, Ketty Ann, Sandra, And more! The All Inclusive was way worth the money spent! We are coming back.
This is like a paradise. Perfect locations, and beautiful facilities! Pools are awesome, and beach, so nice under the shade of palm trees. Ocean water so clean and waves are friendly for you to play. Unforgettable.

Not traveling for the pool, water was stormy not allow for swimming. Palms plenty for shade and plenty launches for people to use.Close bars to the beach,they even bring drinks on the trays :great!!!!
Maids were very kind and helpful, alongside the mini bar refillers. Really recommend the suite over the normal rooms, was very spacious and luxurious. Pools were clean, plenty of activities to go around. Would absolutely recommend for anyone! 10/10 experience!! We riu loved it
I give it 6.8/10. Had a couple of problems with the room but the staff was understanding and friendly about it. Love how many pools there are, and the beach. The activities were just very limited when it came to English speakers.
