Pros (+) That resort is beach front and it's all inclusive

Very good
Hubert, Feb 2019
Pros (+) Other than the below two items there was really noting to complain about!
Cons (-) Because all of the room's interior (as well as the exterior) is white, all of the not so cleaned spots are easily visible- especially in the bathrooms.... So more attention should be paid to these areas of a room. Pool with Pool Bar - well, water is pretty dirty a after the day and not really inviting. Filtration should be way longer and at a much higher rate. Advise from pool owner to pool owner ...
