*Start with this to help everyone out: everyone 18 and over must fill out their OWN form for immigration. The airline said the opposite (this is NOT correct). Once everyone arrived at immigration from our flight, we were all asked to fill out individual forms. Bring a pen, have the address of where you’re staying, and you’ll be good to go (keep the form they give you for your return trip home – you will need it). OK – so some of these reviews are crazy (if a hotel not having bottled water would make you leave a bad review, then you have bigger issues when it comes to travel). Is this the best hotel ever? No. Is it the worst hotel ever? Far from it! We had a good time in paradise (again, reading some of these reviews – some people can just be miserable anywhere). 4 out of 5 stars. Before you book: check with the hotel what room you are actually going to get. It is a bit confusing. Example: we did not realize we would be getting a room with neighbors (we thought all the rooms were standalone cabins, this is not the case). The following 8 rooms have neighbors (you can find this on the ‘resort map’, but it’s not mentioned on the ‘cottages’ page – or we totally missed it): R1/R2, N1/N2, F1/F2, & M1/M2. We had neighbors, didn’t want to ruin their time (or vice versa), politely asked the front desk if we would have neighbors the whole time, and no questions asked they moved us (thank you, saved the trip!). Went from R1 to 5. Way better/what we envisioned! Pros: location – no sea **** or choppy water here (we went to East side of the island and not the case over there), concierge scheduled a 1 on 1 meeting with us before arrival (never had that before!), I did not see a single mosquito (and they bite me all the time in Texas), in room plunge pool was awesome (we used it in the hot afternoons), beds and pillows were comfortable, multiple pools (the pool by the beach has a different panini sandwich each day), bar service near both pools (walk up to the bar or catch them when they come around), in room water bottles, and a large water machine with ice by reception (you walk that way every day), coffee shop was a really good addition (different snacks in there each day as well), we had no issues with the food or portions (reading the reviews looks like some were expecting ‘Applebee’s’ or something?), we never had the same food, and the night we got the steak it was too much to eat (we actually had x2 different people ask us after dinner while watching the live music if the steak was ‘OK’ because we did not finish it – never had that happen before, very impressed they came and asked!). The steak was very good, just too much to eat. Thank you for checking! Other stuff: couples massage was great, ‘Cruise and Chill’ boat trip via the hotel with Christian and Jess was awesome (get out on the water if you can – we had a BLAST), & we did book a whole island tour via ‘Viator’ – a great way to see the whole island if you want to get out and about. Lots of history an
