Stayed in the Family Select section for 9 days with my wife, and 2 young daughters, plus my in laws (4 seniors, 2 adults and a baby).
Good:
- the butler service was great. We had Daniel (who was amazing) and Rogelio, who was also amazing.
-junior suite (building 51 is really close to the beach) was well appointed, modern, clean, and stocked.
- FS beach is really nice, shallow, plenty of chairs. The La Jarra bar/grill was excellent for lunches by the beach.
- restaurant food was all pretty good. Thai was excellent IMO.
- tons of activities for the kids!!! The Junior club was impressive - video games, music room, 2 bowling lanes, billiards, foosball and more.
- FS pool was really nice, the kids loved it.
- checkin wasn’t too bad-plus we changed rooms to a beachside suite and that was quick.
-Beachside suite was incredible. It’s huge. I wish we booked the whole trip darting in this multi-room suite. It’s also steps to the beach.
BAD
- the beds were really hard. I didn’t sleep well. Pillows were ok - you can request feather, memory foam etc.
- when we entered the Beach suite, they had cleaned/disinfected it - and the chemical smell was almost unbearable for a full 24hours. We kept the balcony doors open in both rooms to air it out. It was fine day 2.
- my wife’s parents both got Norwalk Virus and were in bed for a full day, and took them a few days to feel better.
-travel club presentation. STAY AWAY FROM IT!
