What a wonderful experience. From the check-in through out our stay we were treated with gold gloves. We were originally booked for a short 2 night stay but decided to stay another night. The property and room is pristine with modern amenities and bathroom fixtures. Overall our experience was great and we would definitely return. A 5 star rating all around.

My family stayed July 19-22, 2025. It was a good stay, plenty of opportunities and activity options. It is an older resort in comparison to what we were originally shopping for. The room was slightly smaller for our family but the Service staff in the pool, restaurants, and transportation staff were excellent. Very professional, always provides the proper greetings and assistance as needed. Thank you so much.

Had a great stay here. From check in to check out everything was great. The staff was friendly and attentive and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. Loved the amenities. The only setback would be that it’s far from the city or any other food/malls etc. (you would have to Grab and the closest would be like 10 mins away) Also their pool and beach times close very early. (Pool closes at 8pm and beach 6pm) seems like a more family friendly place. Their breakfast buffet is really good with lots of variety. Overall great time!
