"Enjoyed 4 nights/5 days this past week. Only had one rainy day but still had fun bar hopping and trying restaurants. The condo was perfect for the 4 of us. Cesar did a great job with check-in and answering questions (and extra towels). Kitchen had all we needed to make light meals. There is a keurig there (not shown in pictures). Lots of stairs, but it didn't hurt to walk off the food and drinks! Close to Kin Ha and of course The Joint. We love Punta Sur and the south side of the island....

"This was a celebration of 25 years of marriage and we it was magical. We did love where we stayed in the central part of the island and to be connected with the citizens of the island as opposed to other tourists. The balcony and the sound of the ocean and breezes into our place were simply breathtaking. The staff we worked with before arriving and during vacation were exemplary. The only think we would suggest since it is considered a luxury stay would be softer sheets/towels and better...

"The hours of alcohol services we limited unlike other resorts in the area. The additional fee for room service was not great. Especially when the hours of some of the restaurants were odd. The pools seems to be closed for many different reasons. We tried to eat at a restaurant other than the buffett and the staff was less than helpful. I dont see myself satying here again."
