Pros (+) My wife and I really enjoyed the resort poverall!
Pros (+) Location, views
Cons (-) Front desk staff is rude. Concierge service is useless and incompetent at best. The road and landscaping need to be better maintained.
Pros (+) The rooms were clean the staff was relatively friendly
Cons (-) It is a timeshare organization so they're going to give you a bedroom to begin with and then you will upgrade if you listen to their presentation which they say is 90 minutes and last for 5 hours
Pros (+) Beaches
Cons (-) Our room was far away from the beaches & nice pools - there was one smaller pool near our room but not nice compared to the others - it was a hike every day back and forth to the main areas so you had to really plan when you left the room - we tried to change our room on the 2nd day and the manager did try to help make a change but there was no availability so I give him high marks for his profess...

Pros (+) The water, beach, and friendliness of the staff was outstanding! We especially liked the guys in Aqua Mania who gave us the scoop on the best snorkel site (Divi Bay, with a sunken sailboat, helicopter and submarine!) We had a GREAT room with an awesome view in the newest part of the resort.
Cons (-) Resturant choices were not great on property, and the building layout was little confusing.
Pros (+) Everything except beach access
Cons (-) Not good access to a beach directly at the resort
Cons (-) We had several maintenance issue that we could not get fixed -- air conditioning, toilet, plugged drain. Staff was not responsive.
