We stayed at this all-inclusive resort for 1 week in Dec 2021. The rooms were small but the location was great and the beach was great. Kids area (slides, trampoline) was also great. The problem was the buffet was not very well run, there were no measures to protect from COVID, everyone was roaming the room without masks touching food and sharing utencils. The tables and chairs weren't cleaned fully with disinfectant in between guests - we had to ask the waiter to do this and luckily we found a waiter and stuck with him for the duration of the week because he knew our preferences. Checkin and checkout was always congested with long lineups. Night entertainment was okay but it was cancelled for a couple of nights over Christmas. The Casino was dead and uninviting.

Jose Cordero is the best bartender ever! Go see him! He is humble, kind and funny! Wanda in entertainment worked so hard to make it a good time for all! Room was cold, clean and had a beautiful view of the ocean.
