I just got back from spending 10 wonderful days at this resort. I was so nervous about going because of the negative reviews. The staff was friendly, food was yummy, room was good, pools were wet (I'd bring a floaty for the pool). I also brought cat treats for the cats and next time I will bring flea collars for the dogs. It was not overrun by the animals at all. It's a small resort and not noisey, which was great. Minerva and Andy at the front check in desk were amazing. I will definitely go back.

This was our first time staying at an all inclusive resort anywhere so I have nothing to compare so here is our opinion and experience along with pros and cons. The resort is a nice size and easy to find your way around. It was nice to go to the "family side" on occasion. Fortunately, we left at the start of Spring break because things on that side were definitely winding up! The grounds are well maintained and clean. The rooms do show some age and the electrical outlets are lacking and none are near the bed.. They are also very lose and the connection was difficult to maintain. We stayed at a junior suite and it was comfortable for the two of us. it did have tub at one end of the room but no jets and we didn't use it at all. The patio was small but adequate and the staff provided a hammock when requested. The mini fridge was stocked daily with soft drinks and a couple of beers and we were told to request other options we may prefer. The bathroom was large but as other reviewers mentioned, hot water was an issue, especially in late afternoon when everyone was probably returning to their room and getting ready for the evening. Cleaning was ok but not consistent. Sometimes we had someone come in during the evening and do a "turn down service". Towels were replenished inconsistently. The resort did have daily exercise type classes such as stretching and yoga on the beach and a fun cycling class that took place in the pool. Obviously, a lot of people were there for the alcohol and it definitely was available as desired. I don't drink but enjoyed many of the non alcoholic options and my husband enjoyed some more "spirited" options. The wait staff was friendly and attentive. The meals were ok. We arrived on a Tuesday and were advised by the concierge to make reservations for the week. Unfortunately, reservations start on Monday for the week and many of the options were already full. We ended up eating at the same restaurant for 4 evenings but they had different themes. We did enjoy dinner at the hibachi place on the family side and at B Loved and Tao cat. We found the staff to be friendly and helpful. The concierge service left a little to be desired especially when trying to get information on arranging airport transportation. It took us 3 attempts to find someone with accurate information to verify cab service. All in all, I would recommend this resort for a relaxing vacation and time in the sun. Evening entertainment took place at the bar patio and was nothing special and it ended around 10 or 11.

“Good Resort But Don't Expect Any Care About Your Disability (If you Have One)”
Mostly a good resort with good food, ambiance and nice clean room. Beach and pools also good. On average the staff do not seem very warm and welcoming, not unpleasant but not overly happy like in Mexico or Cuba. Only a very few waiters seemed to want to be friendly.

Mostly a good resort with good food, ambiance and nice clean room. Beach and pools also good. On average the staff do not seem very warm and welcoming, not unpleasant but not overly happy like in Mexico or Cuba. Only a very few waiters seemed to want to be friendly. Before leaving I notified Sunwing I had a documented (Accessible Card) disability and asked them to ensure I got a ground floor room as stairs are difficult for me, ( 3 ruptured permanently unrepairable discs in my low back ). On arrival I was disappointed and shocked to be told I was going to be on on the THIRD FLOOR!!!!! They said Sunwing did not notify them of my situation. They said they can try to get me second floor but it never happened. It was a painful unpleasant week for me and I think this was a disgusting lack of care and sympathy. So I am very reserved about recommending this resort for that reason.
