"This resort was great and very clean. The workers were very helpful and nice. Breillin was our concierge for the week and WhatsApp messaged me every morning the activities going on each day. The fire show Friday night was the best. My son loved going down the white slide into the pool and the lazy river. The music at the pool was great too."

"Beautiful property, gorgeous pool, had everything that we needed! We loved having the pizza place right in the backyard- it was delicious and they have gelato as well which was very convenient! Walking distance to the Hard Rock if you want to eat there or gamble. There is a small grocery store inside the gated complex to pick up any supplies needed and free transportation off site to pick up anything they don’t have. The development is still under construction across the street but it was...

"Overall an excellent resort - good food, not crowded, beautiful beach, etc. Only a few items that missed: -Check in: I was charged about $140 (USD) more than quoted. Most likely due to exchange rate as they ran card thru their card reader and gave me a 1” x 2” receipt printed from the reader. Staff was unable to clearly explain or provide a detailed receipt. Told them if they would have provided a detailed receipt like we are used to getting in the US it would have been nice. Not sure...
