8/10 Good
"Read this if you read all the negative reviews and you’re anxious! It’s clear that people have too high of expectation for the reality of what they are booking. The resort was gorgeous. The jungle to beach environment was absolutely relaxing and therapeutic. TONS of animals just hoppin’ around adding to the experience. Our room was small but it really had just about everything you needed for a beautiful, relaxing time. Appreciated the reusable bottle and filtered water stations! The food was GOOD. Understand that this is a smaller boutique-y resort and not one of these XL Lux resorts you find. The buffet was on par with the size of the resort. It’s definitely not a large buffet, but it’s adequate for where you’re staying. There is a lot of variety, from Italian, to Asian, to European cuisine, I always felt that there were different options available. And again, that buffet HITS when you’re drinking at the pool bar all day. The restauraunts were absolutely a 10/10. Don’t skip those! I can tell this is a popular locals spot, coming from USA, I was maybe one of two groups that were fron the US which was kind of refreshing. However, because this was a kids friendly resort my biggest complaint was the rowdy kids that kind of ruin the vibe at the pool bar. If you’re looking for chill over party vibes. this is your resort. The beaches were mostly child-free* Overall I loved my experience, I had a great time and the staff was so friendly. Just the kids 😵‍💫"
