Worst All-inclusive Report Experience

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh (Erin, Canada) on Dec 21, 2024

Probably worst all-inclusive resort experience ever. There’re more times I’m still hungry after a meal, than not. I’d rather not eat good tast food. Room service phone line doesn’t event pick up. The service can not keep up with the increasing number of guests, and more new guest buildings are built. Staff are overworked and need more support, it shows in their service - no one cares; no spirit to work as one. Best way to describe is disorganized chaos. On the first morning of your arrival, they try to make you commit to coming back by “lock-in” the price of the room and ask you to join their Royal Elite membership for just $6K USD for 70 nights, within 5yrs. All you do after is pay $100/day/person for the all inclusive. I don’t even know if I’d love to come back yet. But there’re people would pay the amount right away after sales pitch - after dropping $6K how likely you will see the flaws.

Good but not fabulous

H599WEtiffanyf on Dec 20, 2024

An ok family resort Cuisine: We aren’t very big “foodies” and don’t wine and dine around for the finest food. We are very basic and were pretty disappointed in the food. We were only able to get to the international buffet. The other buffet wasn’t worth it compared. Expect long wait to get any drink and don’t expect to be offered a refill. Expect to see a lot of wildlife. We didn’t mind and they didn’t mind us. Workers are working so hard to keep this mini village alive and clean. I can’t imagine the work that goes into maintaining it here. Expect to walk.. lots. It’s very rare to get a room close to the pool/beach or the water park. Aqua park: this is the main reason we booked here. We have two young children and we knew they would be busy there for hours. There was 3 main waterslide areas. The main area tailored to small children, the mid level, and the bigger water slides. We had no idea there was height requirements for the slides. We weren’t able to go on the small and mid level even with our nervous kids. Which was a let down. Our 7 year old couldn’t go on the big ones and was super disappointed the others were to amateur for his age. We weren’t really sure why he couldn’t go on those since most of the big ones you’d see in a standard hotel. Beach: very rocky. Wear water shoes or take your time. Weather: we travelled mid Dec and only had one sunny day out of 7. Make sure you take the umbrellas they have in the rooms! Most workers don’t speak English so trying to get help for anything is difficult. Night time entertainment and the kids club were really good. All and all it was good but not fabolous.
