Showers could definitely be updated. I’d give the actual shower a 1.5 rating. A drink package would be nice. Basic frozen drinks were super expensive. A kids frozen drink was outrageous considering they contain zero alcohol. Food and drink prices were much too high! The resort itself, it was amazing! The staff was great, desert was great, views were great but would have loved to have stayed on property for more meals but you could leave the resort and pay less for a nicer meal.

The property view was phenomenal. The staff was very hospitable. Great for families but enough pools that it never felt super crowded (even during spring break). Don't spend the extra money on the cabanas. No real perks

The property is by far the best resort experience on the island!! No other hotel or resort can come close!! When you pay the resort fee you actual get resort style amenities that are by far more valuable than the fee they charge in comparison to other properties that don’t even offer a fraction of what El conquistador offers. We Will Be BACK….!!
