9. What Brides & Grooms Said...
“Awesome resort. My wife and I came here for our wedding last week and everything went perfect. Yesenia is a great wedding organizer, she took care of everything which relieved us of any stress. Teo took excellent pictures of us and our guests. Mario and Sergio at the concierge services were quick to adress anything we wanted and helped ensure everything including transportation for our guests went as planned. Filiberto the guy in charge of cleaning our room made our stay wonderful. He would refill our mini-fridge constantly and since we drink lots of water he would stock us with 12 water bottles each time. He added many additional things being that it was our honeymoon like ribbons, roses, etc. At the bars, Desiderio stood out as the best bartender ever. Best resort and best vacation ever!!” Zack K.
“Got engaged and married at this resort. Can not say enough good things. Was nervous having a wedding during spring break but this is a family resort with no spring breakers. Our wedding coordinator Victoria was an amazing. Extremely organized reassuring and just the best. Cant wait to come back for our anniversary.” – alexozzie
