Being a post pandemic visit, the resort was rusty. It definitely needs a renovation. Some of the rooms were old and unused.
Our family room was ok though.
Hotel grounds were looking decent but it definitely needs some attention to bring back its beauty. The pools were nice, the water was clean. No water slides available if you care to know.
In the evenings there was mini disco and entertainment show.
Service wasn't that great, it wasn't too bad either. It was decent but you feel the attitude of "tip expecting".
The food wasn't great for a 5 star hotel. It was plenty but of low quality. I definitely felt the budget cuts. The beer was the worst i have had, it felt cheap. And in the evening that would serve you warm beer.
Shortage of ice for soft drinks.....
In this business little things men's a lot. To bad because it can be a good Hotel.
Overall we had a great time here and that's because the beach is wonderful. The color of the water was Heavenly. Decent snorkeling. The water was warm, clear, the waves in distance making a peaceful soundtrack.
I would have liked a bridge over the water to access this beautiful bay easier and see from above how the waves meet the coral barrier.
In conclusion, the beach is perfect, the hotel looks nice but it definitely needs a renovation and the garden a bit of attention. The nice restaurant over the beach wasn't functional this June when we were there, which was a bit of a disappointment.
Also they should reconsider the cost cutting in food and drinks, not suitable for a 5 star hotel.
My family and I had a great time there, considering that we didn't pay too much, also.
