We stayed for 6 nights on an all inclusive package. Overall it was a very enjoyable stay.
The room was clean with a very comfortable bed. The AC unit worked well and kept the room cool. We did not use the minibar as it was not included in the "all inclusive" package. The property had lush plantings that gave the place a very exotic feel. The only restaurant had a somewhat limited menu. The atmosphere was nice and beachy, and the wait staff worked extra hard to please.
- Sadly, the food was only mediocre. During our stay we tried almost everything on the lunch and dinner menus. The only thing that really stood out was the french fries, which were always hot and fresh. I would absolutely not recommend the steak unless one has an affinity for shoe leather, only with less flavor.
- The drinks were very weak. Not a big deal for us as we aren't heavy drinkers, but even so it was noticeable, though they were happy to bring as many of them as one could ask for.
- My biggest gripe, which may prevent me from returning, was the tipping situation. Even though all was included, we were still presented a check to sign after each meal, with suggested percentages and a line for leaving a "propino." After generously rewarding the excellent service for 4 days, one of the staff let it slip to me that those tips never make it to the waiters. I switched to cash tips after that.
-Finally, Although we are "VIP" members with Expedia we did not receive any additional perks or upgrades.
