Nice location by the beach. Easy to talk to the ocean. Some of the restaurants were good, others were not so great. Not enough room at the pool for the number of guests. It was impossible to get a cabana since people would reserve one and be gone for hours.

Fabulous staff, very fun busy high activity resort, very family friendly. Great pools, sandy beach. Food was good, spa was great. We were in 11th floor with amazing views. My only issue was the noise leave never stopped. But it was a good excuse to take a walk on the beach.

The staff is stellar. The resort could use a refresh but was a good place to stay- it is central and much is walkable, if not taxis are always available. One does not feel unsafe at all. Annoying is folks that reserve lounge chairs and are seldom in them.

Second time here. Great staff and service. Our room was very large and deck had great views of pool and ocean and mountains. The things we didn't care for was the exceptionally loud music at times during the day and at night but not every night. The beds around the pool were nice but not many. Loungers would make more sense. People take all the beds and loungers on beach and pool by 7am. Didn't like the cigarette smoke wafting into the pool area by the smoking areas. Overall good experience though and would probably go back

Has gone down hill …..
There was no mirror and there was no dresser in our room. The pillows were a bit rough so we went across the street to the grocery store and brought soft pillows about once a day we had to go and get new cards because they kept resetting sometimes twice a day. It would help that they label what the food is that you’re eating at the buffet you don’t know. They also took away the french fries and the burgers and the pizza that you could regularly get. No more strawberry daiquiris and piña coladas at will. And as adults we couldn’t have food delivered to the beach like we used to or up by the pool you had to sit at designated tables. It seems everything is taken a turn for the worse. Unfortunately, we used to love coming here. It was my third time overall but we won’t be back . However the kindness of the people from the workers there was always as expected. They really are wonderful people. ❤️

Love the people and staff. They are amazing and so personable. My only wish is there were more dining options and food options especially for little ones. Some fries or burgers would have been great!
