Creator's Key Takeaways

the check-in here is absolutely it's so fast we were literally at the desk and off to our room and probably about 2 or 3 minutes

they definitely strongly strongly recommend even if you're a strong swimmer to not go and swim in this area here

all the a la carte restaurants here the ones that I'm showing you are complementary all inclusive and they're included with your stay

the vendors on the beach harassing people so they're not set up right now but they will arrive shortly they usually just kind of camp out at the spots where you can go from the groped in area to the to the beach to public beach

Creator's Tips & Advice

βœ“Use the quiet breakfast area at guacamole for a calm morning meal with an ocean view.
βœ“Come early for dinner at a la carte restaurants if you have a larger party to secure a seat.
