Disliked pool area only 3 ft deep all pools. Beach lake area dirty. Palapas are not free. Cabañas not free. Room was dirty. Bathroom ceiling full of holes from water leaks. Luxury room expected better quality. Bathroom sink was patched and ugly. Noisy hall ways and Air Conditioner. Elevator lobby dirty. Ride front desk and don’t have any maps of property or information on pools and beach area. Very disappointed!!
