The one the kids will campaign for. Cohen and Charlotte will stage a polite coup the moment they see the FlowRider video. Don't fight it. They're right. 7.8 is not the highest rating on our list, so mentally accept that service will range from "Trinidad brought us fresh towels via WhatsApp" to "we paid the invoice and they still accused us of not paying the invoice." Both happen here. The 1st-kid-free promo (via Royalton Direct) makes the math look a lot less cruel. Cohen: Overtime Sports Bar has hockey, speakeasy room, DJ — you're welcome. Charlotte: La Cocina is where your Spanish earns you a second round of guacamole.

What real guests say

★★★★★

"Great return trip for active teens"

"For us, the beach & amenities (volleyball, basketball, pickleball, tennis) are the best parts of the resort & really ideal for our family with two very active teenagers."

siobhan c·2026-03·Family with teens 13 & 15·TripAdvisor

★★★★☆

"Lazy river + splash pad thrilled the kids"

"The kids were especially thrilled with the many activities — the lazy river, water slides, and the splash pad area. The pool mats in the main pool were also a big hit."

Kelly D·2026-03·Family (5 & 9)·TripAdvisor

★★★★★

"We would come back"

"Dana and David as our concierge was truly a game changer for our experience. We were able to set up a WhatsApp chat and they checked in throughout our vacation."

Ashley S·2026-02·Family with 5 kids·TripAdvisor

★★★★★

"Enjoyable stay"

"The beach was fantastic, the staff very friendly, the resort was clean, and the food was good. We had zero issues with traveller's tummy which was a first for all 3 of us."

★★★★★

"Awesome family vacation"

"Rene was so friendly and helpful and never left us hanging, he responded to our requests immediately. He was always around during the day so we would run into him."

Cory P·2026-04·Family of 8·TripAdvisor

★★★★★

"Star Class is the way to go"

"Trinidad, our butler, made everything so easy and Aly at the Star Class pool kept us entertained. Star Class is definitely the way to go at this resort."

Melissa O·2026-03·Family·TripAdvisor

★★★★☆

"Great staff, horrible management"

"My kids did the FlowRider and Edson, Xavier and Joaquin are amazing. They taught the kids what to do and the children loved it. [But management was a different story.]"

Eric S·2026-03·Family·TripAdvisor

★★★☆☆

"Beautiful resort, operational issues"

"At both check-in and check-out, we were told our stay had not been paid for despite having confirmation. We had to provide bank statements to verify payment."

GMLarry·2026-02·Couple·TripAdvisor

★★☆☆☆

"Disappointing trip"

"There was a dehumidifier in the room that had to be emptied every 5–6 hours. We never received our star class welcome basket. There was no hot water for at least two days."

SueR·2026-02·Family of 13·TripAdvisor

★★★★☆

"Great room, tired finishings"

"The rooms, ours was a great space, with a swim-out pool. The opportunity was the condition of things — we had warped closet doors, cabinets that were starting to fall apart."
