Paradise location but an average hotel
The hotel is NOT a 5* as advertised in hotels.com, but is is a 4*.The reception staff totally ignored my VIP status and benefits. I did not get a room upgrade even though there were rooms available, they did not offer me a complimentary bottle of wine - not was I offered a late checkout. The All Inclusive did not feel inclusive, infact there was so much that was not included that it tainted the stay The restaurant staff [particularly Swapan] were great, as were the staff in the Sunset bar area [particularly Geneline].

We went for a week and bought all inclusive package thinking it will be good, our package had some water sports included but everytime we went they were unavailable. Usually all inclusive have atleast non alcoholic drinks included but here only some soft drinks and juices were included. We requested the booking department to decor our room at arrival for our honeymoon and they confirmed us but when we arrived their was no decoration and instead they put a fruits saying this is decoration lol not worth the price we paid. Will definitely try different resort next time.
