"It’s super nice resort with lots to do and right on the beach. Great buffet, lots of walking. Pools were awesome. The other restaurants inside the hotel were not so good. Food is tasty, bland and repetitive. Better to eat either only the buffet for breakfast or lunch. Or just go out near the shopping for better lunch."
