From the moment we arrived to the moment we left was amazing! I did find the reservation portion for restaurants difficult but not a deterrent to come back. Staff were outstanding and super friendly. Room was spacious, clean and comfortable. First 2 days the shower ran pretty cool however it was a nice relief to the body from the heat. Looking forward to a return visit! Ohhh absolutely loved the wildlife (not the bug bites tho lol)

The resort is gorgeous with animals all over the resort. Nice little water falls and plenty of paths to walk around on. The water slides have restrictions for heights so be aware I believe most of them are 1.2meters. The lineups for food and drinks were always long and wait times were a bit concerning. Getting into the el a cartes was almost impossible only got into one for the week. Other then that it was a good stay

Everything great except- they need more food options! Slight panic at 11a and there’s nowhere to really eat except one place that has tacos- and that place had the worst service. Everything else wonderful! Bring sand toys and snacks- you’ll have a great time with the kids!

This resort has definitely gone downhill. We stayed here last year and loved it! This year they had done some expanding, so we hardly saw monkeys (which is the whole point of staying here). It was super crowded and we had to wait in line nearly every time we wanted to eat at the buffet. It was so difficult to get basic service like coffee and water at the main buffet. The staff was not friendly and mostly unhelpful. We had an amazing time last year, but after our stay this year we won’t be returning.
