Michelin Guide
"The usual vast array of amenities of a chain resort are augmented by a fine spa, a big choice of restaurants-some in beautiful settings above the beach-and child-friendly activities."
Star Service
"Near the Melia and Westin, this hotel is cut to a standard international resort template geared directly to Americans, which seems to be the key to its success in the face of heavy competition." Full review

Tip: be sure to ask for a swig of the house tequila made from agave grown at the hotel, or better yet enroll in one of their tequila appreciation classes.
