My stay at the resort was quite a mixed bag. On one hand, the serene location and friendly staff made for a lovely environment. The service from the attentive wait staff was fantastic, and it felt like a home away from home. On the flip side, the dining options were quite limited, and the amenities left something to be desired, especially with the pool cleanliness. Overall, the value for money could be better, especially given the challenges mentioned.

The resort offers a serene escape in the hills, providing privacy and a beautiful environment; however, the accommodations and maintenance issues detracted from the experience. Despite the breathtaking location and excellent waitstaff, particularly at the beach, the dining options and overall quality fell short, making the all-inclusive value questionable.

The accommodations I stayed in were average. Upon arriving, I faced several issues such as a beeping smoke detector and a non-functioning toilet. After reporting these, the lack of timely response was concerning, although I did eventually change rooms. Overall, the rooms could use significant improvement.
Service

The service, particularly from the waitstaff, was exceptional. Fernando, Ulises, Sergio, and Carly were attentive and friendly, making every effort to cater to our needs. However, the housekeeping could have been better, only offering bed-making and towel changes.

Nestled away from the busy beachfront, the resort is located in a safe area with a beautiful view of the surroundings. It offers a peaceful ambiance but is quite far from nearby attractions, requiring a taxi or shuttle for convenience.

The dining options left much to be desired. While the sit-down dinners when available provided good food, the buffet was lacking in taste and variety. The all-inclusive option seemed overpriced for the quality of food offered.

The grounds and landscaping were well-maintained, but the pool areas needed attention, with tiles either loose or missing. This detracted from the overall impression of the resort's facilities.

The resort is beautifully set in the jungle, offering a peaceful and quiet atmosphere. The staff was exceptionally friendly, and the beach club experience was the highlight of my stay, with fantastic food and service. However, accessibility was a challenge, with the beach far away from the main hotel and the shuttle service being inconvenient. The dining options could have been better, lacking variety and quality, which was a disappointment for the price paid.

The hotel offers stunning views of the ocean and has beautiful grounds with two nice pools. However, it's quite remote from major tourist attractions, and I faced some challenges with noise in my room. While most of the staff provided great service, I encountered some unfriendliness at the front desk. Overall, a decent experience, but not without its flaws.
