10/10 Exceptional

Adults only, all-inclusive!
I was pleasantly surprised by how nice this resort is. The room was very comfortable with a large powerful shower, efficient air conditioning which was easy to adjust, comfortable beds, a nice partial view of the beach, etc. The staff was enthusiastic, accommodating, and they all seemed to enjoy what they were doing. The food was good with several restaurants and an enormous buffet that was open for breakfast lunch and dinner. Restaurants included Indian, steakhouse, Italian, and Japanese; there is also a poolside restaurant for snacks and Mexican casual items. There are two huge pools and two smaller pools which feature swim-up bars, which is where we liked to spend most of our time. There are lots of miscellaneous amenities as well.

8/10 Very good

The stay was great, the food was great. Service was great. There was a fairly consistent high pitch ringing noise in the room. Never found out where it was coming from and was not always on but consistent enough to be frustrating.
