We loved the scenery and property. Well maintained, peaceful and beautiful. The staff were all helpful and pleasant including Rene Garcia and Juan Oropeza, who handled all of our reservations, transit and activities. The menu options were diverse, though we felt all of the prices were remarkably high, even compared to NYC.

It was relaxing. On our last night there was a knock on our inside villa door and we saw a flashlight shine under the door. The front desk said that they would check the cameras, but I would have felt better if security would have checked on us.

The accommodations were amazing. We loved our villa. Our concierge, Paulina, was always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The staff weee always trying to please, even if they messed up or were taking too long. They were trying. We were a bit shocked at how much all the food and drinks cost. It was quite high for the quality received. The beach seemed to be somewhat destroyed from some storms but they had some blockades to control the waves.
