Pros: beautiful location, great staff, great wedding coordinator
Cons: bad management, mostly buffet food, AC in most rooms was horrible
We had our destination wedding here and I loved EVERYTHING about the ceremony. We had about 45 people come with us including children so we were looking for a kid friendly, reasonably priced all inclusive and this fit the bill. If you've been to all inclusive before then you know this isn't 5 star but we still had a blast. I thought the shuttle ride would provide some red stripes etc and they didn't(we used apple vacations). It was at least an hour and half long ride but good scenery. They on

Pros: Big beach, large resort, lots of food choices, awesome wedding coordinator, excellent entertainment staff, excellent hotel staff
Cons: Bugs, cloudy water
I got married here on 6/1/13. We stayed here for 8 days before we went to a different resort for our honeymoon. Overall we had a pleasant experience.

My TA requested me and my husband to be get a double upgrade and that all my guests be in the first two buildings. So they did upgrade us. Most

SUNWING/SIGNATURE VACATION
Awesome vendor to work with and the airline was great. Even though it was a small plane, it was comfortable and the food was pretty good. Staff were very friendly and had a dedicated overhead compartment for my dress and for another bride that was on our flight. There were no extra/hidden fees, you get fed well and get a glass of champagne or a glass of wine with your meal. Check in was slow, with lots of different flight checking in at the same time (leaving Toront
