The property was great and staff very nice. Ike thing I would like to see is better food and also when our sheet was halfway off the mattress I could see so much mold and dirt on it. I was so disgusted and after that I did not want to lay on it knowing how dirty the mattress was. Seems to be very old and I’m sure they all need to be replace. The most disgusting thing I’ve seen.

Resort was beautiful but the staff at the buffet were very aggressive. Rooms had roaches and the artisans that were selling goods on the beach were relentless. We wanted to relax but it was difficult. I would not stay at this resort in the future.

Disliked: Amenities
The property was nice (outside). I liked that everything was in close proximity. You can walk to the pools quickly and the beach was right there. I did not like the rooms. They were very old and had a bad musty smell. The bedding was very uncomfortable. The sheets were kind of gross and my pillow had a terrible smell! The housekeeping was good when needed but the place needs a renovation. Also, when we got into our room there was spots of fresh paint (wet paint) like they just touched up spots right before we walked in. Not a great look as I stained my arm and shirt without realizing. The food is okay. I liked the steakhouse best.
