![]() ![]() I was booked into villa #12 which gave m e pool/beach access - perfect room, anything along 12 (10, 11 etc) are perfect but a walk back to the reception area, buffet and nightly entertainment. maybe because I wanted them to KEEP GOING lol. Room service is timely and tasty! They have the best ceviche I have eaten in YEARS. If you like to dress up and fine dine then this would be great. We also dines at the Blue Moon which was super "fancy" but not quite my cup of tea. Food: I am a vegan so I am always bothered by the lack of options, however this was NOT the case, I particularly enjoyed the buffet. If you can do without the ocean water you will be fine, if the beach is a must you can enjoy the sand or fight thru the seaweed OR walk a little under a mile and you'll be able to enter the water freely. The smell is a bit annoying but the bartenders seem like they are on a mission to keep you drunk so just drink and you wont smell a thing. Mother nature brings it back faster than they can load it. They have staff shoveling it off the beach before the sun rises. SEAWEED, there is NOTHING anyone anywhere can do about this. Let me just start with the bad, and the biggest complaint I see in reviews. Ok, this was an experience! I will try to cover as much as I can. Overall we'd consider returning, but maybe see if Privilege is a better experience.… They did a great job cleaning up the seaweed and the ocean was warm and wonderful while we were there. I felt bad for the singer and dancers because the crowd was pretty lame and gave very minimal feedback. We did see a singer with dancers one night, a fire show, and a white party. Activities: Like I said we just wanted to chill and read, so we didn't do any daytime activities. Only their house wines were included in the price, and the glass of red I had one night was pretty awful. Again if you weren't Privilege your alcohol options were limited and the juice in general wasn't good, so I wasn't a fan of most other drinks. Drinks: Piña coladas, gin and tonics, and mojitos were pretty safe choices. The other food at that restaurant was good. We were excited to see "ramen" at Yookoso but that was a very generous name for a mushroom broth with wide rice noodles and a boiled egg lol. They only offer room service for guests staying in privilege rooms, so if you do any late night activities just know food options will be very limited. Food: When it was fresh it was good, but the stuff just sitting in the "warmers" didn't really stay warm. One was a more relaxing vibe, and the other was top optional apparently and the activities pool. There were 2 pools, which we didn't really use. There were vendors that came on occasion, and we did take advantage of the massages from the ladies in blue once as the rates were much cheaper than the resort's spa. There were plenty of covered sunbeds so we could lay out and read everyday all day. This would have been a bigger issue, but honestly we came for the beach and that was great. The rooms are dated, have a musty smell, and the shower design is not good with water spilling onto the floor. ![]() I really think this is a 3.5 star resort. We ended up paying over $100 for transportation and that was a star off for me. Rather than a html link it just looks like a picture from the hotel under all the confirmation info. If you book 3 or more nights there should be a link at the bottom of the email. ![]() We did have an issue trying to book the free transportation and couldn't get through to anyone at the hotel until of course it was too late. My sister and I just returned from a 4 day/3 night trip and it was a wonderful vacation as long as you know what to expect.
