Large resort with multiple bars, restaurants, spa, beach & activities. Staff is very young, and the desk staff needs more training in customer service. I arrived during a thunderstorm and was basically abandoned at the airport. The resort has a designated shuttle service but refused to pick me up b/c "booking on Expedia made me ineligible for that service." I was forced to wait hours in the rain & pay $300 by the extortionists laying in wait outside the airport. The desk staff were shockingly rude & uniformed. Ditto with some of the restaurant hostesses. Shout out to Estefany, at the Concierge desk (Gold!) & the Director, Andrea, for doing their best to make up for this blunder.

Last time I visited this resort was 2008 with my father. Have been to other excellence resorts - Finest which is more Family oriented. Overall My GF and I enjoyed our stay. We had some issues in the beginning but the leadership team/managers will try their best to accommodate you ! I could also tell the leadership team cares about their employees. I will definitely go back.

Be prepared to spend most of your time waiting for food/drinks. Excellence club is not worth the upgrade. There are a bunch of "secret perks" you have to be "in the know" to ask for so we just didn't end up getting them. The free hydrotherapy is powerful jets not a jacuzzi water massage as described. Tips are NOT included, you must give a min $5 USD for every interaction or they'll take even longer to serve you. They were very annoyed at check out since we didn't buy an extra excursion or spa service. Not vegetarian friendly, food often came out undercooked and bland despite having a "special menu". Drinks were watered down which is probably why they all tasted the same. The sports bar closes at midnight and you're not allowed to be around the pool after that. They insist on coming all the way in for room service, love outside shoes all over. Swim up room reeked of mold which traveled home on our clothes and passports. The glass bathroom/shower doors didn't actually shut which is an odd choice at all you can eat where they went so far as to have a phone installed at the toilet... Overall could have been worse beach trip but certainly not worth the price.

My wife and I just returned from a week spent at the Excellence. We had a memorable time. The resort is immaculate, the pool near the spa was relaxing and exactly what we were looking for. A shout out to Edison our pool waiter who couldn’t do enough for us. The restaurants were delicious, the shows were entertaining, we are already planning on returning next year. Another shout out to Alexander, the front desk mgr that made certain our trip was perfect This was our third time there and won’t be our last.
