This property was beautiful and well taken care of. They greeted us welcomely and invitingly. The rooms were large, very clean and extremely comfortable. Dinner was delicious from the on-site restaurant, as was the buffet breakfast.

There isn't a tv, or phone inside of the room. They only provided a hand and face towel for one person although there were two people on the reservation. The staff knew very little English and offered no real assistance. This is a very misleading resort. Do not listen to social media post dating this is a great resort. Luckily, we only stayed one night to be closer to the airport. The jacuzzi was very cold...not heated like stated. The highlight was the two earthquakes we experienced during the stay.
