Just completed a stay here. I stayed here last year and had a great experience, but this time around, things weren't as good. The beach is basically gone, and when it is there, it is full of seaweed. The pool area was always easy to find a chair, but I wasn't able to place up the umbrellas some days due to wind, and got very hot very quick. The service around the pool was hit or miss. It was supposed to start at 10AM, but often didn't see a server until well past 11AM. Be forewarned, there is a loud and obnoxious Zumba class that takes place at 12:30PM every day. The music is extremely offensive, with lots of cuss words, and one song was all about people with small d*cks. As a Globalist, I was only upgraded to a partial ocean view King room, which was disappointing, but understandable given it is Spring Break, I guess. The Grand Club was packed each day with lots of kids present and screaming babies. It often took 20 minutes to get a drink in the evening from the bartender. The food spread, however, was excellent for both breakfast and dinner each day. Internet was fast and reliable throughout my stay. COVID test was easy and convent, and I got results within the hour.
