"Overall experience was good! I did have a few issues. We were locked out our room several times due to our wrist band not working properly. We also felt pressured to purchase the membership package and was made to feel like if we didn’t comply we were making the staff look bad. We had one staff member tell us she was the only one that could setup our transportation to get to the airport when in actuality we booked our transportation through a different site, which at this point took me out of character for a moment. Other than that we really enjoyed ourselves"

"I found the property was in a prime location along the beach, and had many activities to do on the property. Most of the restaurants were clean and the food was good. The rooms themselvesI believe need to be updated, and so do the beds. Other than that, it’s like most all inclusive resorts, it’s like a cruise ship on land. Overall I give it four stars!"

"We enjoyed our stay. There were nine of us including two young kids. We felt safe. The food was outstanding. Glen did a great job with his butler and bartending service. The tip rate was reasonable for what is provided. The house was phenomenal. Very clean. Lovely location although we were disappointed that a ship was in port for three of our five days which was a bit of an eye sore but not within the owner's control. Anyways, overall we were very pleased!"
