My stay at the resort spa had its ups and downs. The location is decent, making it easy to find excursions and enjoy some family-friendly amenities like pools and a splash park. However, the rooms left much to be desired as they were not particularly clean, and I faced a frustrating situation with the check-in process. Overall, while the amenities were nice and the staff was quite attentive, the cleanliness and service at the front desk could use some serious improvement.

Rooms

The room I stayed in had a dirty duvet and mattress cover, which was concerning. Even after bringing it to the front desk's attention, they didn't change it for a clean one.

While the staff was generally attentive and kind, I felt that they could use better training. It was disappointing having difficulties with getting assistance for something as simple as catching an Uber.

The location is good for excursions and has nice pools and a splash park for kids, but I found the layout a bit confusing, making it easy to get lost.

Breakfast options were limited and felt more like a hard sell for vacation packages than a proper meal. The à la carte restaurants offered better food, which was a plus.

My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location is fantastic, right by the beach, which I loved. However, the room could have been cleaner and felt quite dated. The dining options at the restaurants were pretty good, but the service was a bit hit-or-miss. Overall, I had a pleasant experience, but there's room for improvement, especially with the cleanliness and service consistency.

I had a pleasant stay at the resort, enjoying the clean and spacious rooms, but I felt they needed a bit of TLC. The staff made my visit even better with their attention and warmth. I loved being so close to the beach and having a great pool area for relaxation, but the dining options were not as impressive as I had hoped, particularly at breakfast. Overall, it offers good value for money, but improvements in dining could enhance the experience.

My stay at this resort was quite the experience! The rooms were absolutely huge, boasting two living rooms, two kitchens, and two balconies, which made for a very spacious stay. The exclusive services at 'The Level' added a luxurious touch, especially with having a dedicated butler, shout out to Teo for his amazing service! On the downside, the service was hit or miss. While some staff were accommodating, others seemed to show favoritism. Overall, it was great value for the space and amenities offered, but the mixed service experience could use some improvement.

I recently stayed at this resort, and while there were some colorful positives, a few issues marred the experience. The location is beautiful, with nice pools and a fantastic area for kids. The service had its moments, especially with a couple of standout staff members, but there were also some hiccups that detracted from the experience. Overall, it was a good value for the price, but not without its flaws.

I arrived hoping to check in at 3:00 PM, but my room was not ready until around 4:15 PM, and unfortunately, it wasn't clean when I got there. That was a bit frustrating.

Service

While some staff members like Danielle were very helpful, I had an awkward encounter where I felt accused of making up stories just to get a better room. This made me question the service, but there were several hardworking employees overall.

Location

The location was stunning, surrounded by nature and the beach, but I found the layout confusing, and it was easy to get lost among the large property. Despite this, the pools and splash park for kids were a hit.

Dining

Dining options at both restaurants, Mercado and Rumba, were decent, but the breakfast experience turned out to be more of a sales pitch for vacation packages than a meal. That was disappointing.
