Food, customer service, and rooms are all top notch. The only thing we didn’t like was the forced concierge talk about time share properties and wanting to use discounted meals as a tool to lure you in.

I love the place... everything looks so beautiful. what I didn't like was the way their staff treated us. Unless I speak English they don't gives any service. It seems like they don't want to provide service if you look Mexican. I complained three times and their staff apologized for. also, their extra charges after we left the hotel eventhough it was all inclusive.
