Despite our preference to try blending in with the locals while vacationing, we chose an all-inclusive resort as this was our first time to the Caribbean. We were pleasantly surprised and definitely got our money’s worth!
The food was buffet style in the general restaurant for all meals and a la carte for the reserved dining room for dinner only. Although the food was superb in the reserved dining room, the buffet restaurant rivaled its counterpart with sophisticated entrees and gourmet deserts without the required reservation. All drinks including alcohol were complimentary as were all non-motorized activities (i.e. snorkeling, kayaking, archery, etc.).
There were nightly cabaret-style shows that were quite entertaining performed by the resort staff.
The rooms, cabana-style with stucco and tile decor, were quite comfortable and clean and each had a private balcony complete with patio furniture. We did not spend any additional money once arriving at the resort. We would highly recommend this accommodation.
