Ocean Blue Sand

Our 2nd stay in ocean blue & sand,we were there 8 years ago for hubby's 50th birthday & had a lovely stay then so decided we would go back again. Check in went smoothly & our luggage was taken to our room before we got there as it was our honeymoon nothing at all was done for us but it wasn't the end of the world,we celebrated hubbys birthday while we were there but there was nothing done for him. We booked a deluxe garden room which was very spacious the bed was huge & so was the shower but it took ages for the water to warm up, the only downfall was we were on the top floor & the stairs got a bit too much at 1st,our maid was very thorough & was always spotless & clean our bed sheets was cleaned every day & fridge stocked up but Only water juice or beers which I didn't like, I always use my own towels but hubby was happy with there own ones. As we have been here before we knew where everything was we had breakfast in the buffet & there's ever so much choice nice fresh & warm. We had no bother getting a sun lounger by the pool every day & we never seen it getting cleaned the whole time we were there the only problem was the amount of people round the pool bar not getting out to use the toilet some was there as soon as the bar opened at 10am. The bar tenders was always friendly & happy. The resort has not changed much only the seaweed on the beach there was a few people mostly young adults in the water personally we would not go in. They had tractors out doing there best but it was still bad. There was always security at the beach & we only seen 2 venders walking up & down but they were not hassling people. We tried the steak house a few times & the Italian we also went to route 66 twice the menus had a lot of choice there's no need for people not having something nice in them, we did try to get in blue moon but hubby had 3/4,s on so they would not let us in. All the eating places were very clean & the food was fresh & plenty on your plate. We always went to the lobby bar for a few drinks ,the waitresses were always friendly we always gave them a tip & they soon get to know what you need as soon as you sit down. All the staff were always friendly we got friendly with Jose in the buffet restaurant he knew how we took out drinks I always take my own cup & t-bags & once I told him milk 1st then hot water he knew straight away the next day,we would feed the mother cats & there kittens little bits of ham & bacon but when pinky the flamingo knew we were feeding them she was always there pecking at there heads so she could have there food she walked round the resort very elegantly & belonged there. Overall we had a brilliant holiday & we would definitely return in the future so go with an open mind & rest assured you will have a great time.

Four nights and the air conditioning never worked; the technician came and nothing changed in my room, and the same in all my companions' rooms; the buffet was hot, the restaurants were hot, no functional air conditioning, and the hotel is not cheap. The only show that was worth it was the Michael Jackson one.

The hotel has great staff and great ambiance and activities
