In general, we enjoyed the resort. Don’t let Expedia fool you, the resort credit is a joke.
We got the premium ocean view with a balcony. It was more of a side ocean view with a balcony but was still really nice.
We came here to check it out and see if we should bring our kids. This resort would be good for kids because away from the main pool/bar is a “water park” the kids would be able to play and swim in.
Overall, the staff was amazing. I was surprised how much other people weren’t tipping compared to other resorts. I would tip the bartender pretty big my first drink and maybe a little something later in the afternoon and they would give me the premium choice of vodka/tequila.
DON’T FORGET YOUR YETI/STANLEY. They serve drinks in small plastic cups without straws. But you can hand them your cup and they will fill that up for free.
Best snack food is the food truck down near the beach. Get the quesadilla de cochinita. It was phenomenal. The Mexican restaurant was closed, but we tried all the other ones. The breakfast buffet was awesome, for lunch we did the Buffett or food truck (because it was the only thing open and close to the pool), but the best food surprisingly was the American bistro with steak and lobster special.
Overall good trip, don’t forget sunscreen or aloe (for pale people like me). The gift shop aloe will cost three kidneys!
