Was there from 12/25/08 - 1/3/09, food was great, grew tired of it after a while though, restuarant across the street was great (Mandalay) to break up the meals a bit. French restuarant on site was very good, Lobster thermadore was awesome. Staff was very nice, never had to wait for a drink, bring some ones for tips, staff will respond in kind. ...

Would never go back
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 08/20/08
From the outside it looks like a beautiful tropical place. Once you get inside you realize you're better off staying at a holiday inn. Check-in was a long process. There were only 2 people for all the families checking in simultaneously. They were overwhelmed, unaccomadating and very rude. If you're looking for hospitality this is not ...
7/12 08 we arrived around 5:PM.Checking in took about 5 hours. In that time we were given to occupied rooms, that was scary! Sunday was a good day. Monday someone got sick.Tuesday someone got sick had to go to the.Hospital,over night stay would have cost $2000 American dollars. The beaches are beautiful. the food wasn't good. The rooms ...
Never again, It took 5 hours to get to a room, which was occupied. So we had to go back to the front desk to get vacate rooms. One of the two employees working at the front (Juan) was so rude.

The service was horendous. We waited for an hour to check in only to find out our room wasn't going to be ready for two more hours. When we returned, the guy who originally helped us ignored us and we had to wait again only to find out our room was gone! They got us another room which was musty and wet the whole time. The food was cafeteria ...

After cheking in we had to wait 20 extra minutes past check-in time because the rooms had not been cleaned yet. The clerk at the reception desk ignored us completely without updating ...
