I really loved how beautiful the property was and as a solo traveler , I felt very safe. I will say though they need to have better food offerings that cater to more people . I felt the food was bland so it was hard to enjoy but the place was so nice and luxurious.

This was a wonderful vacation experience. I would have rated my stay higher if not for the construction work being done on the north side of the property. It was very loud, and quite a scenic takeaway, considering that I booked a room with a balcony and ocean view. Aside from this let down, the staff, events, food, and overall property were lovely.

This resort is perfect. We had absolutely no complaints. Food was excellent. Staff was excellent. If we needed anything for our room, it was provided immediately. We booked safari, Safari Blue, Snorkeling and jet skiing through the hotel and they were very reasonably priced and exceptional.
