The beach and pool were really nice but for a place like that it felt like it should be all inclusive. I guess I'm used to the Mexican hotels where that's pretty standard. It was a nice relaxing stay though

The Hotel is very nice, The staff is very friendly and competitive but Expedia is promoting a false advertising. This place is not all inclusive, VIP doesn’t exist!! I spent my whole vacation waiting for Expedia to “resilve” the issue necer heard from them!! Thinking about if I would use Expedia again to buy my vacation.

This is a very nice resort. The staff is friendly and helpful. The facilities are great. One thing to improve would be to lift the restrictions to order food from the swimming pools from 12 to 3 pm because they want to force people to go to the restaurants for lunch, but people should be free to choose.
