10/10 Excellent

We loved this resort. The staff were really helpful and engaging. Our room was made up each day; and the food was excellent. We had the all-inclusive package and found the drinks offered under it to be totally acceptable - even though spirits were all locally made. We only wished we had booked longer!! We also found using Uber to be easy and reliable.
