This hotel is stunning! The pool and restaurant area has an awesome view of the beach and ocean. It has several pools that allow for different crowds. I went with my wife and twin boys and shared a 2 queen room. Even though the beds are small (not queen for sure), all other details were positive.

Great place to stay. The beach and restaurant area across the street is one of the nicest we have been to, anywhere in the world. The hotel itself nestled in the jungle is so memorable and nice. The staff at check in showed us a Sloth chilling in a tree nearby, very nice touch as my wife was very happy. We will try to make this place a romantic get-a-way every year.

I am not sure if we received VIP. perks but the property, food, staff, and room were awesome. It was like a little oasis in a bustling but laid back area. The restaurant, Gigi’s, was lovely and the staff were so friendly. The food options were flavourful and the entertainment made it extra special. Great staff in reception and housekeeping, too.
