I would like to say the staff(not front desk/manager/cashier) were polite and friendly. Now that I got that out way my experience was terrible. I traveled with my wife for our honeymoon and booked the honeymoon package(which included rose pedal, wine and candlelight walkway). When we arrive they didn’t have any of our information or room ready. A lot of basic things were not included in the all inclusive package, which they overcharged for. Which wouldn’t have been a problem if the front desk had when we arrived. We were treated as if we couldn’t pay for it(which is further the truth). When we were trying to pay for our bill to check out, they informed they have to charge a 5% (which nowhere else in the island b/c we get that there is VAT tax. All I can do in my frustration is to write this review. PLEASE BOOK SOMEWHERE and no I don’t care for your future apology. They are just conducting bad business with their shady practices. (Not like didn’t know it was our honeymoon because that’s the package we bought and present our marriage certificate). PLEASE DO NOT BOOK THIS RESORT. I feel bad for the staff.

We found the hotel to be very charming, cottage style cosy rooms and nice common areas.
We appreciated the staff and lot, they were professional and attentive. Marco in particular is a pure gem! We were there during a rain period and he would play card games or engage kids in other activities which was much appreciated.

The hotel is very relaxing and peaceful. I enjoyed relaxing during my vacation and taking a few trips, which were beautiful and safe through the hotel's official booking office. I also enjoyed the diving and snorkeling trips from the diving center, which were really good and cooperative. The food is excellent and varied, especially the seafood restaurant, but it was only spoiled by the noise of the beach (too many people talking at the same time). The spa is wonderful and the location is magical. The Eve program was very good (I really liked the masseuse Natasha). I hope to meet you again soon.
