The resort itself was big and nice. The nature is beautiful. Housekeeping was great, the waiters at the restaurant by the pool were very nice and hospitable. The servers at the main restaurant were not that attentive i’d say. A big negative was that they don’t have enough pool or beach chairs to accommodate the whole resort. We met some people that would get up at 5am to ‘reserve’ a pool chair. At one point we got up at 6:30am to go and snag some chairs however there was none available, as people leave their towels on it and thats how they ‘reserve’ the chairs. The workers on the beach work hard to keep it clean, but our beach was the only one that had SO much sargrasso, you could not swim. And while we understand that they can’t control the amount of sargrasso that comes in they could invest in some better way of getting rid of it. There is definitely not enough shade i’ll say. There were always chairs available at the private section of the beach club, but thats for their VIP club only and they charge $60 for a day pass for there. We wanted to rent a car however the rental car people were never there and they kept giving us the run around when we would ask the front desk staff. Nobody knew anything or how to book it from the hotel which was really frustrating. Our flight also got in later, so by the time we made it to the resort it was 8pm and the staff that checked us in didn’t give us a tour of the resort or give us any info, we had to figure it out ourselves.
