Manoguayabo Holidays from AU$3,049

The resort staff were incredible. Everyone we interacted with was kind and helpful. The resort itself was very well maintained and the common areas and the beach were beautiful. The only problem with those common areas were the smoke detectors that beeped nonstop throughout our trip. We didn’t spend time in the main building because of the sound. The quality of the food was also a bummer. A lot of the food at the buffets and restaurants was either bland or dried out. We ended up buying VIP passes to their other hotel (the bougainvillea-adults only) and really loved their buffets and restaurants. So it all worked out pretty well.

Súper peaceful. Clean grounds and rooms. The restaurants you are allowed to reserve 10 days in advance, Don Pablo was phenomenal. Takara hot plates were great but sushi wasn’t the best. Los Corales wasn’t good, surprisingly. Maybe it was because we went during the last hour, but left much to be desired. Buffet was what you would expect, Luke warm variety. I think it’s definitely worth the stay for the grounds, right on the beach. The staff is very helpful.
