Reviews
Staff behavior & neutrality:
Being very tall (2 meters/6'7") and of African descent, I was constantly stared at and watched like a hawk by the servers at the public buffet restaurant. Fortunately, I am very confident and comfortable in my own skin, but otherwise, some people would definitely feel discriminated against or feel like their presence was bothering the staff. Personally, I just didn't care.
I also received several comments about my height. Again, I take it as people paying attention to me, but it would be much better if the staff remained 100% neutral. Not everyone appreciates comments about their appearance, even when they are meant to be positive.
The Buffet Timing:
On my very first day at 3:45 PM, I wanted to go to the buffet, but I was told it was already closed. Closing 15 minutes ahead of schedule? Not cool.
The Positives:
Staff: Aside from the staring, the staff is actually very kind, helpful, polite, and attentive.
Food: The food selection is very rich. I tested the Mexican and Asian restaurants, and both were delicious.
The Room: My room offered an exceptional view of the Caribbean Sea. It was very well-equipped with everything you need, including a fully stocked fridge (drinks and water), a hair dryer, pajamas, hand/shower gel, etc.
Conclusion:
An excellent stay overall. It is a complete resort, but they really need to fix the check-in process and train the staff to be more mindful of guest privacy and neutrality.
The pre-booked meal was delicious!
The buffet, however, was just okay.
Since I don't drink alcohol, it felt a bit wasted on me.
The pools are just the right size for activities and socializing, but the real highlight is the stunning beach — that’s where I spent most of my time. Dining options are plentiful with several restaurants to choose from (reservations are required), and the bars offer a wide variety of drinks. The café is also a must-visit.
Overall, I had a wonderful experience. This isn’t a massive, party-centric resort — it’s better suited for travelers looking to relax and enjoy the beach in a more laid-back atmosphere. If there’s one area for improvement, it would be refreshing the rooms and hallways, as they’re starting to show their age.

Vegetarian & vegan friendly, though vegan options aren't marked. The price is similar to what you'd pay in the US for dinner. The patio is overgrown with plants & lit with lanterns; lovely. Indoor seating available. Bathrooms not the cleanest.
The veggie enchiladas came recommended, but disappointing (bland, came COVERED in cheese); the creamy spinach pasta we had was amazing (we added chicken, $4 USD); pineapple shrimp fried rice (no complaints, though Mexican style is wet).
I ordered the vegetarian tacos, which is a bunch of vegetables in a whole wheat tortilla. You get three of them with a side of guacamole.
Overall, they really are just okay. Little seasoning with a random selection of salsas. I’ve come to accept that Mexico doesn’t do vegetarian food well.
