The property was very nice and clean. Breakfast was amazing. The staff could have been a bit more proactive with the guests. It was unclear that we needed the hostess to seat us at the rooftop pool and we were ignored the first day. Once we got the concierge involved, we were treated great! The spa was lovely. We joined the vacation club while there and are planning two more trips this year in June and October!

This was an outstanding experience! Staff is very present and caring, the room service is super meticulous the food was great and had many options. Overall awesome vibe, perfect for people that want to have fun and be in the middle of the tourist area. They even offered us a free transport to the airport, free hydrotherapy at their spa and a day pass at their other locations. Highly recommend

Excellent in most ways. Food quality was second to none. Breakfast was a highlight every morning. Location was great, if not directly adjacent to the beach. The only issue was the music by the pool: it blares in a high monotonous pitch as if it were a night club for 10 consecutive hours. Great to dance, hardly a balm for the spirit if you are ver want relaxation by the pool. It may work for many, this was just too much for us, hoping to just relax.

Very Noisy room from 6pm to 1am!

We were given a choice. Noisy room across from pubs with a view 3rd floor, or a room quieter without a view on the main floor. Wife chose view which was only visible from looking along the hotel from the balcony. The noise was ongoing until 1 am. One needs earplugs. We won’t be staying here any more. Note 4 night stay, and two other hotel stays to make a 12 day vacation. We won’t be going to this one, rather one of the others we stayed at

Place was beautiful and convenient to beach and shopping. Staff was great. The only thing I didn’t like was that they offered late checkout via an email they sent me and when I went to the desk they said it was not available, they got my hopes up on a late checkout but not delivering.

DJ way too loud on the rooftop. It's the only place you can lay out to get sun... the music is at Dance Club volume for most of the day-with no one dancing. There is nowhere to get away from the loud music...not relaxing for an adults only Hotel. Great chef for the Italian and Asian offerings-good service! The Mexican restaurant items were good however the service was not. Rooms smelled very musty and it was a hassle to get the hotel staff to lower the air conditioning temp to a comfortable level.

Pros: Check out was quick and easy. Needed to change rooms due to so loud and was able to immediately. They did so without extra charge. Shuttle to sister hotels. The vibe of area is nice. Cons: Very loud motel. You hear bars across street and the dining areas. You hear music and banging all night long and roof top bar. Can hear everything in rooms all around you. They push timeshare for first 2 days. Had to be rude so they would stop asking. Check in took a long time due to this. Did all inclusive. Food was not worth it. Cold, limited choices. Ate out half of the time. They want you signing check so they can get tips, but they didn’t do anything extra. Rooftop bar/pool not impressed. Not enough chairs and never was waited on for drinks. Food was limited. Shuttle to sister hotel for $15pp is good, but same issue; no lounge chairs and not a beach. Spa prices not really worth it. Tour guy didn’t communicate everything, so had to pay extra at tour. Shouldn’t had too. Maid service did make bed and give clean towels, but room was not “cleaned”. Won’t go back.

It wasn’t right on the beach how I would’ve liked, but, everything else made up for it. The room, service, location and food were all great. The area is safe and very walkable to the beach, bars and shopping! I’d refer friends and hope to go back.

Great place to relax for a conference

I attended a conference at The Reef 28 and was very pleased with the hotel as a vegetarian. The rooms were huge, and the water filling areas were close. The breakfast was huge, with so many options and someone who could make specialty egg products. I appreciated that the items were labeled, though in a few causes, I wish it was a little cleared as to what was vegetarian. I'm glad they rotated menus daily on the main restaurant. I also appreciated that on the Mexican restaurant, they rotated the vegetables each day that I ordered tacos. The rooftop bar was also quite scenic, and I appreciate the energy one day when they brought in dancers. Overall, I liked this place for a conference, and look forward to attending next year.

Was advertised as an all inclusive resort, this was not was given to me at check in. I was told I had not paid for all inclusive and they wanted to charge me an additional $800 for the all inclusive. I believe that they use a bait and switch, the room was extremely clean but the noise was constant,no way to sleep at this place. As for the rooftop completely disappointed the pool was tiny and the place was overcrowded. Everyone kept trying to sell you a deink or have you take a 90 min presentation for timeshare. All I can say was what a disappointment overall…
