Property was clean, easy to find, within walking distance to the airport. It is VERY loud when trying to sleep due to flights overhead. We splurged and paid for the all inclusive after our flight was cancelled, it was a waste of money. Multiple things were not actually included, and all inclusive received the same treatment as those who were put up by the airlines. It was not worth an additional $159. Rooms are very dated, carpet on the floors. Indoor and outdoor pools are beautiful. Beach is terrible

Large, clean facility, close to restaurants and airport. Just a bit noisy.

Staff need to smile a bit more and breakfast is not up to par. Paid less money at Four Views in Canico, Madeira and their breakfast is superior.
