8.0 Very good
The resort was nice, very big. Lots of families and kids so wasn’t ideal for couples but we still liked it. Staff was friendly; I mentioned on reservation we were celebrating a birthday and they reserved dinners for the 2 nights we stayed. This was great because when we checked in there weren’t any more available restaurant reservations left. The room was huge, very spacious, didn’t hear any outside noises. Bathroom was ok, the tub was a little dirty but no other issues. The food was ok, needed to be more seasoned but it was usual resort food. Surprised they didn’t have any CV dishes at buffet though! Not even on the international section. The drinks i didn’t like at all; tried most of the cocktails and they were too sweet and syrupy. Wish they had more choices and had frozen drinks. We didn’t see much for entertainment other than dancing one night but we were only there 2 nights. Overall we had a good time.
