    This is not a five star resort, more like a 3 1/2 star at best. Most of the rooms are outdated, air-conditioning in the rooms are not all that great, a lot of the rooms have mould in them and no hot water. Very little shade around the pool and not enough lounge chairs to accommodate everybody there. They approach you every day trying to get you to buy a timeshare. Certain areas of the resort you can smell the septic system which is disgusting. The outdoor theatre is an accident waiting to happen with no hand rails to hang onto as you're trying to navigate your way to the seat witches just concrete. On the weekends you will find hookers walking around the resort propositioning men. This is an old resort which had some renovations done do it, but like the old saying goes. You can put lipstick on a pig, but it's still a pig. Don't waste your money going here as you can do a lot better going somewhere else for the same price.

    this place is trash, I'd give it 1/5 or a 3 star cheap hotel. The food sucks, AC sucks, restaurants are horrible, beach is small and crappy, I was there for a week and didn't have any hot water in my room at all. Never again. Also they try to sell you some scam travel club for like $13,000 Drinks weren't great and there's nothing to do. The only good thing I found was the outdoor bar/ food area next to the pool has an ok lunch. Punta Cana is way better. Also watch out for the Uber drivers, they all stop and haggle the price, it's all just a headache in the area of the island. AVOID this cesspool.

    These people make a video to advertise this resort then no one answers the questions people ask. To me this is a red flag. I read that since this became an adult only resort there are a bunch of immature-rowdy-disrespectful-loud and drunk 30 year old children. Too much noise.

    Don’t be fooled by the video. It is nothing like the video.Ask for a special drink and they say they do not have the alcohol requested. The breakfast buffet that feeds the resort had no eggs this morning whatsoever. We where here three years ago and this place was amazing now it is completely disappointing and our Airtransat rep is useless.
