"Had a great time for what it was worth. The room was very nice. We Couldn’t swim in the ocean or take any pictures because of the seaweed. I Guess July isn’t a good time to travel, and there weren’t really many food options on the resort. We couldn’t get any reservations because all the restaurants were booked during our whole stay. So we only ate at the buffet and they served the same thing every night."

8/10 Good
"Love this place if you’re not looking for luxury. It has value though. Was disappointed that I saw an ad that they still had free airport shuttles. That’s not the case anymore. Watch out for mosquitos while in the tree areas and avoid restaurant seating near the trees. Beach is clean and free of sargassum but not great to swim in. Love the adult pool in the select club. Highly recommend booking a snorkeling trip with Scuba Libre on the beach at Sandos. So much fun to swim with Maria the turtle in the wild. I’ve booked diving trips with them too in past visits. I only ate from the buffet as I was a solo traveler for a 4 day stay and love that the food changes somewhat day to day. Al a carte dining has been fantastic in the past too. I would also recommend spending a little more and booking the spa with hydrotherapy, massage and mini facial. My poor old dried up Canadian skin feels 20 years younger!"
