There is a pool in the complex, which was enjoyable, Based on the description, I expected the place to be closer to the beach. It is not too bad - just 10-15 min walk, There is a great Soda, fruit/vegetable store, and a bakery nearby.

Be really careful walking around the waterfall as help is a long way off if needed. A 24-hour chorus of wildlife seems to change every few minutes. The chocolate is absolutely fantastic.

5/5 Excellent
"The staff was wonderful everywhere! I even de-magnetized my key card and the cleaning crew heard us having trouble and came over to help and got us a new key sent over. The facilities are fantastic with all the choices for food and pools, and the whole setup was beautiful and well maintained. We will be back!"
