What we did not like was they close the ocean swim up bars at 6pm. Still light and sun sets for 2 1/2 hrs???? WHY Older property but very still nice. Our "OUR Butler Jose was the BEST ever!!! We stayed in all adult Secrets side! All wait staff excellent. But closing the pool bar so early was a buzz killer for everyone. With such beautiful sunsets, why close so early.

Main pool was closed, we were told by staff it wasnt an inconvenience for our trip because we had access to Secrets, well Secrets is adults only. So we were stuck with a kiddy kiddy pool, or an over crowded other pool. We had 2 options for restaurants, even the buffett was only open some evenings, limiting food options. Drinks were subpar, beach was rocky and unswimable. Also, beach is full of salesman. You say no thankyou to the same ones over and over again. Overall, we enjoyed leaving the resort because there was nothing to do while we were there.

Majority of the staff was awesome. The concierges were a little pushy to do the presentations for my liking. They advised it would only take 1.5 hours. Once we were there, two hours in, I told them I didn’t think their discount program was the right fit for us they kept pushing and followed up by a manager (Alex). In my opinion it’s unprofessional for a manager to get up the table without properly dismount himself, just because he didn’t get what he wanted. then they brought another lady to speak to us. At that point I was frustrated because we had plans and I kept telling them this was not the right fit and at the end they seem upset. Which gave me a bad taste in my mouth. I do want to say Fernanda and David from the buffet restaurant were super awesome with us! Kudos to them. Made us feel welcome at all times.
