The resort was very clean . People were very friendly. Kylie in the reception area is the best ! She was always there to give you a drink. I didn’t think the food at buffet was the best . They had a lot of choices so you could always find something to eat.

I really enjoyed my birthday celebration. The only let down was the massage prices. This the first trip I didn’t get some type of Spa service. The entertainment crew were so energetic and friendly I have to give shout out to Naomi she had us dancing all night. Outer favorite Bartender was Juanita ...
