I asked every day for 10 days to be moved, but at no point was this offered. In addition, Virgin wouldn’t move us to a different hotel stating we’d have to pay again.

Very mixed review for this resort which is tired. Beware guests booking with Virgin Holidays as you will be put in rooms with no balcony or outside space. I asked every day for 10 days to be moved, but at no point was this offered. In addition, Virgin wouldn’t move us to a different hotel stating we’d have to pay again. The room had nowhere to dry swimwear. The basin was cracked. There was only 1 hook for towels in the entire bathroom. The dehumidifier flooded our room twice so we had to stop using it. Don’t expect to join a sing along at the piano bar - the piano was not used once during our 10 day stay. On the plus side - the restaurant, bar and entertainment staff are excellent. Read less

We aren't wired for bulter service and passed on it. From our viewpoint, you will have a… Read more
Nice resort, good beach (not quite Cuba good) and great food. If you don't choose a ocean front room, you run the risk of the back side "garden view" rooms,(AKA highway side, road/parking lot view) as we unfortunately discovered. Tried to upgrade, but no luck. We aren't wired for bulter service and passed on it. From our viewpoint, you will have a great time without this, no offence, but dimeaning service. Lot's of activities to take advandtage of during the day. Sandals has perfected the business model of vacationing on their properties to the highest level. FYI Read less
