i found the staff very attentive. the chefs made fabulous dinner combos at the pasta station. stefano, moses, pascal and benson showcased their cocktail-making skills.

the thatch roofs have some holes. the pool had scum on the surface. there was only one all-inclusive bar with limited options. it is at the beach, so indoor seating is not available if it rains.
