It’s only our first day here, but the property is amazing. Breakfast at the buffet is amazing- especially with VANESSA T. waiting on us! So friendly and funny and helpful. Great service and wonderful tips about local island sites. So much to do without ever leaving the resort. Everyone is super friendly and accommodating!!!! Free upgrades to bigger room with ocean view and everything.

The hotel is perfectly clean and even though we n...
