Everything was great, except there was no shade at the pool unless you rented a cabana for $200. There was a ton of weeds on the beach. Beautiful property.

The hotel was beautiful! The amenities and restaurants were top notch, but there are only three restaurants on site - one of which is very spendy so you’ll likely not dine there nightly…this leaves really two places for dinner if you’ll stay as long as we did (7 days).
Don’t let other reviews about the beach deter you, we loved the beach. The seaweed was there but not a big deal and the water was so nice and warm. We went daily :)
The staff were honestly the best part about the stay, they were some of the most (if not the most) accommodating group of people I’ve encountered at a hotel. The level of attention and enthusiasm during our stay was just incredible.
Thank you especially to Antonio the amazing bellman, Karen at the concierge, Patricia (Patty) out in the pool area and Irvin at Jao. You all went the extra mile always.
We appreciate you making our stay so enjoyable. Thank you!
