Spoiler alert, it’s worth it!
The beachfront location is stunning with clean waves and vibrant surroundings. The staff is friendly, and the food was decent with tasty personal omelettes at breakfast. Despite the need for more lounge chairs and occasional long lines at bars, the overall experience was enjoyable with lovely ocean views and engaging activities.

A family getaway with mixed vibes
The beach was stunning, and my kids loved the pool activities, letting us bond over fun in the sun.
However, the wait times were ridiculous, and the room felt too cramped and noisy, especially at night.

Good place for families
We brought our daughter who loved the towel art made by housekeeping and the beach was nice for family walks. Staff were really friendly making me feel welcomed and the food was decent with a nice variety, especially the omelettes in the morning.
It wasn't cheap, but still acceptable for a family vacation.

The location boasts stunning sunset views and easy access to the beach, ideal for a laid-back vibe. The proximity to quality dining options and local markets across the street adds convenience.
The facilities are seriously overcrowded. Forget lounging by the pool. good luck finding an empty chair, especially since many are reserved early by absent guests. The food at buffets lacks variety, feeling more like a cafeteria than a resort dining experience, and the two à la carte options come with additional costs. Room furnishings leave much to be desired. plastic chairs aren't exactly the height of comfort. To top it off, the noise levels throughout the resort can be overwhelming, making relaxation near impossible.

Friendly staff made us feel welcomed.
Our stay was marred by the extreme overcrowding at the resort. The pool and beach areas were so packed that we could hardly find a place to sit. We were really disappointed by the lack of variety in the dining options, which felt more like a cafeteria than a resort dining experience.

The location near the beach was fantastic for sunbathing and enjoying the beautiful views. The staff was friendly, and the evening entertainment made our stay enjoyable with a lively atmosphere. However, the dining options were quite limited, and the wait times for food and drinks were frustrating, especially given the crowd. Overall, it was a decent stay for a short getaway but had its drawbacks.

The Deluxe Queen Room was decent but definitely needed some updates. It was clean enough, which was a plus, and the air conditioning worked well. The pillows were surprisingly comfy—not too hard or soft, just right. But I couldn't get the A.C. lower than 23C, which felt a bit warm. The view was nice, but the room had a dated feel that took away from the experience a bit.
