Please MAKE SURE you ask for Francisco, the... More

The staff was very knowledgable and personable. They were really freindly and because of them I would come back. Dario the transporting guide in the resort was excellent in customer service, I could talk to him about anything. Michael the waiter at the buffet was just a beautiful human being and connected with us and made us feel at home.... More
