Excellent Resort that is close to the airport. Excellent staff, excellent rooms, great beach with spectacular sunsets. The area around the hotel is not that pretty, but there is a convenience store a 5 min walk away where you can buy your alcohol and groceries.

Hotel is very nice. It is right on the beach. The property has two main pools and children’s one as well. Also has water slides. The hotel is very nice and has great food. The price is very affordable. The rooms are a little dated and need a refresh. Overall the experience was great.

Good hotel on the beach, large rooms.
Good hotel on the beach, large rooms, good pools, we had a corner ocean front suite with great views to the beach and mountains, two balconies.
Missing kitchen towels, paper tissues, face towels and coffee (you can buy it at their mini market), also they don't have courtesy bottles of water.

The staff are all excellant and hard working, but something just isnt right with service. You have to wait ages to catch a waiter then it takes forever for the drinks etc to arrive. They also have a stupid system where they take your order and room no then sometime through out the day you get the bill to sign.

Worst stay i had in my entire life anywhere in the world. This place really hates foreigners. The staff is rude and mean. First of all they charged me a 300 000 tax once my colombian wife arrived later in the day (2 night stay ).
Staff at the pool wouldnt let us use the available beach bed while locals where using all the others ones cause they said it might be raining soon ( clear sky without a single cloud )
Pool was closed !!!
Then...
They told us it was karaoke night at the resort bar and then we got REFUSED entry cause they said " there is too many people ".
It wasnt even full and some people were living as we arrived and they still didnt let us in. Couldnt use spa either or get a massage cause their spa service was fully booked for the 3 days we were there. For an hotel that expensive they should be totally ashamed of the service this hotel has given me. DISGUSTING
