I enjoyed the pools a lot, especially the ones at the beach club. the all-inclusive food was actually good, not boring at all. the animation team added a lot of fun. They were really professional and friendly. my husband even joined in on the dancing!
i think the hotel should allow guests to use all facilities at any of the hotels since we all paid for the all inclusive service.
