5.00We had such an amazing time at the beach! The water was beautiful, the atmosphere was relaxing, and everyone we encountered was so friendly and welcoming. The excursions were a lot of fun and really made the experience even better. I would absolutely come back again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting!
Tourist trap

2.00It was ok. Everyone that worked there was very nice. Just not a lot to do there. My 10-year-old was bored after two hours. The food is mediocre. We ended up leaving early. We were very happy to know that the boat goes back-and-forth so we could go back to our hotel. Honestly, it's overpriced and it's a tourist trap.
Not worth it at all

1.00This really isn’t worth a single dollar, the only way i can imagine you enjoy this is if you have kids, The island is simply for kids. The activities are boring, the food is boring, the staff are friendly, thats my only upside. There is no reason for you to spend $135. Just go to almost any other beach enjoy your time there and find yourself a nice restaurant to have some dinner. I assure you you would have a better time that way
It’s a fun place to...

5.00What a wonderful way to spend a day. We did splurge and get the private cabana, which was well worth it. Being among the flamingos, seeing the beautiful fish while snorkeling and soaking up the sun was just wonderful. And the slides are not just for kids. So much fun!!!
True Premium Service!!!!!
