Closest I ever felt to Home!

Unreal! From the moment you walk in to the lobby on the left you find the front desk which to my luck there were the 2 most beautiful ladies that helped me from that step and all throughout the week! These were Ana Lourdes and Elizabeth, from there I was help further more by a gentleman named Edilberto Serrano they took care of my full checkin experience and made sure we all were happy. At the pool bar in the morning I dealt a lot with Alexis and Sheila that work the morning shift (They are amazing) in this same bar you will find Hector,Jose,Juan later on the day which are amazing as well! They were all so kind! In the second resort towards the back there is a pool bar which is ran by an amazing woman called Lala. She is lovely in addition to Marlon, Damir and many other names I couldn’t remember! All in All I forgot many names but I was so grateful to have experienced all this welcoming experiences that I will never forget! I will definitely go back next year hope to see them all! Loved the Hotel!
Hit and miss Experience

We travelled from October 13 to October 20, 2024. 5/5 for sandy white beach and blue crystal clear blue water. Hotel requires an upgrade in room with fresh paint and fixing sliding door that was very heavy to open and close. Air conditioner is positioned on the top of the wall facing the bed therefore blowing directly on your face during your sleep. No air conditioning or fans in buffet area or service of wine for dinner or lunch. Even though you open the windows mosquitos and birds got through. Coffee, espresso and cappuccino very weak and only liquor available was Rum for mixing drinks. Service was a bit slow looked like they were understaffed especially during busy time with hotel fully booked. Wi-fi offered through out hotel however it was very difficult to connect in rooms and sometimes in lobby. There was a beautiful size pool outside the hotel however it was under construction that was not disclosed to us before booking or upon arrival at the hotel. No compensation for the inconvience offered by the hotel management and learned that the pool was out of commission for about a month through the Sunwing representative at the resort. We actually would give another half star just for the food as it was quite tasty and flavourable. We had eggs, bread, chicken, pork and beef each day both lunch and dinner. Don't change your money to pesos as they don't want their own money. Will accept both canadian and american money. So if travelling with canadian dollars don't change over. Overall this is probably a hotel we will not be coming back to .
