My trip was a multi generational family trip of 9. We loved the main villa and pool area. We loved seeing monkeys, toucans and other habitat from the deck area. We walked and bused around the area. My 4 and 7 year old grandchildren did not want to leave. We hired a chef for 2 dinners and enjoyed that. My only disappointment was that the 2 apartment areas were dated and not nearly the quality of the main vila. It was uncomfortable for me to put 2 of my adult children in those spaces that felt inferior. Alex, the housekeeper, pool boy were all amazing. Thank you for your kindness.
