Punta Morena Beach

*MUST READ* This is one of many reviews that I'll be leaving for this place as I'll be writing them on different platforms as well. This resort far exceeded my expectations as I read the other reviews prior to arrival, particularly the negative ones. Let me tell you, the negative ones are just completely irrelevant. I'm an American from Tx, I know what it's like to feel entitled, and that is all those negative reviews were.. They were entitled people who expected to feel like they were in the most luxurious place ever. As luxurious as this place truly is, it is no place for you to EXPECT luxury. If you don't want to eat meals in a beautiful tropical hut with nature (birds) around you, then do not come here. If you expect completely modern architecture with the newest model rooms and appliances, then do not come here. But if you expect the true island experience with beautiful older architecture, beautiful turquoise waters, along with the most beautiful people you can meet, then please consider this resort. The staff are some of the hardest workers I have ever met, not only do they work hard, but they do it with a smile on their face.. That is a luxury that I'm not used to back in TX. It truly is beautiful and almost makes me shed a tear thinking about them as we really do take so many things for granted in the US. They all speak excellent English but please have the respect to communicate with them in their language, even if you're not fluent. Thank you.
