It took 3 requests to get repairs. Response time for security was very poor when someone was banging our door with a fire extinguisher and tried to get in my room! People were extremely nice. Great food.

Dangerous for families, they sold us tours from 3rd party providers, we end up on the side of the road because we decided to leave our van, the driver was driving recklessly, almost got in 2 accidents, we asked the driver to slow down, we had our 15 month old in the van, and he was not listening, so he stop and told us to leave. We went back to the hotel, asked for our full refund and they told us that there was nothing they could do to refund our near 1k dollar tour (6 of us). This hotel is a joke!

We booked an excursion through Scuba Caribe which is on the hotels property. When we began the tour the driver was rude, didn't say where we were going, drove recklessly and we almost got in a couple car accidents with my 1 year old baby in the van. My family was scared and asked for him to pull over at the next store or gas station and he dropped us off on the side of the road in the middle of nowhere. Additionally, the driver was making jokes and talking bad about us in the front seat to the other man in the van with him. When we finally got back to the hotel we talked with the manager and was told nothing could be done about it even though the people we booked the trip with is affiliated with the hotel. We felt very unsafe and scared. We paid nearly $1,000 US dollars of which none was refunded to us. The hotel literally did nothing and didn't care that the company they are affiliated with left their guests on the side of the road. I am so appalled at the hotel for allowing something like this to happen. I would never return as the hotel does not care about the safety of their guests and the people they choose to affiliate with on their property.
