Overall the experience was good, Staff was very friendly, and the facility was nice overall but not over the top. The water pressure is terrible would be one issues for me, and the bathrooms are a bit tight and not well lit. None of this was a deal breaker and was fine just general things I thought could be better. I also felt like the facility is very understaffed in terms of the customer service. Particularly the Bar agian not a deal breaker but took up to 10-15 mins to wait at the bar to get a drink and you can tell those guys are doing there best and needed some help.

Resort was nice and quiet. Live music, two fire pits with dining area made the outdoor experience that much nicer. Great swimming pool and tiki bar with ocean views. It was also great that they provided bus shuttle service, I never used my car. They took us to and from the resort and different attractions within the Isla Morada area. This was great as parking is limited on the property. Dinner and breakfast were pricey, but the food was delicious and worth it. For two people, dinner=$222 tip included breakfast= $70 and dine-in room dinner was $90. There are plenty of restaurants in the area. Would recommend.
