Not all the bedrooms have A/C or fan, disgusting bathrooms with mold, hair in the beds and pillows with a stinky dirty head or drewl smell. The buffet personnel stood us up from our table because the time for breakfast was done, so we coulndt even finish eating. Bad food bad taste. The whole experience was just awful, so sorry to pay for this.

Booked four nights through travel zoo, Monday to Friday. Paid $200 to upgrade to VIP. Room had no hot water or air conditioning. Complained several times a day to staff for three days and was consistently told the problem would be resolved in 20 minutes. After speaking with other guests we learned our entire section was without both of these essentials. On day three we spoke with Mario at the front desk about these issues and requested to be moved to the other side of the building to room 9203. We were informed that the only other available room was 9105, on the bottom floor, and he would have a bell hop show us the room. After sitting over 45 minutes in the lobby we again had to remind Mario that we were waiting. At that point a bellhop that was clearly upset about showing us the room finally showed up to let us see it. The quality of the room was not close to the one we were in, so we decided to stay and suffer though not having air conditioning. The truly upsetting part was that our friends, who are clearly better at complaining than we are, also complained maybe an hour after and were shown four other rooms to move into. Eventually they settled on room 9203, the same room we were told was not available! Mario at the front desk clearly lied straight to our faces!!…

Bether Calderon was an exceptional server in the cafeteria; friendly and always smiling. Front desk Junior Cordero, you are lucky to have him. Wonderfully friendly young man. Rooms and resort very clean. The shows and entertainment were excellent. Beautiful lush greenery all around. Just breathtaking. Seemed like staffing was low. Perhaps due to pandemic however despite this the staff were incredibly hardworking.

My girlfriend and I were very exited to go on vacation.First we waited 6 hours at the airport due to SUNWING delay then upon arrival at the hotel they only had one person at the reception checking people in.There were only six people to check in and we were the last one, it took almost 3 hours for the receptionist to check us in. Paid extra money for the ocean view and show them the receipt but they told me that they don't have one available.The room smelled and had mold all over the sheets, matrices and pillow were covered with mold.Never experienced something like that.Had to complain for three days to get my room changed to another one with tons of insects.Sheets have not been changed even once. Had to call everyday for new towels.I got sever allergic reaction for what I blame the mold.I ended up with almost 1000$ medical bill.I will add pictures at the end.I have never seen such a rude Stuff but yet asking for tips all directions.The food was horrible.As soon as you get on the beach you will be harassed from local vendors trying to sell you different stuff, no peace at all.It is been one week since I got back and I am getting worst from the allergy. Four doctors so far and no results.Paying tons of money on medications and also lost of work.It there is explanation what nightmare is, what I feel is the perfect one.…

This resort epitomizes "you get what you pay for" and is definitely a 4-star. Nothing at the buffet was edible, I went to the a la carte restaurants where the food was slightly better. The service was awful, despite leaving tips, everyone was grumpy, and at one point I was waiting for a drink while the bartender was dancing. The only service person that stood out was the young woman making crepes. At the buffet, I was completely ignored and wasn't served coffee a single time. (Note to the hotel, fix the problem, a 'polite' response isn't necessary. This hotel is average at best. The good? The Beach is great, but there are only 7 umbrellas, so it's perfect for those who like to fry in the sun.
