Things to do on Isla Mujeres

Isla Mujeres (means the island of women) is an island at place where the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean Sea meet. It is about 7 kilometers long and 650 meters wide. To the east you can see the Caribbean Sea, and to the west you can see the Cancun skyline across the water.

There are very few reports of violent crimes in the history of the island, leading to the island’s reputation for its relaxed nature, and the safety of residents and tourists is exceptionally high.

Best Time to visit Isla Mujeres

Isla Mujeres

The peak tourist season in Isla Mujeres is from January to April. As we all know, this is the best time on the island. Therefore, unless you specifically come to Cancun for a party, it's better to reconsider the choice.

Between May and September, the chance of rain is highest, while September and October are considered the seasons of hurricanes. Therefore, these months are the off-season, and the prices of hotels and air tickets will be much cheaper.

Best 5 Things to do in Isla Mujeres

1. Visit Playa Norte

Playa Norte is definitely the best beach to tour on the Isla Mujeres, just a short 10-minute walk from the ferry terminal. This is a beautiful and charming white sand beach with swaying palm trees and shallow, warm turquoise waters. Surrounded by several bars and restaurants, you can rent umbrellas and beach chairs and enjoy the Caribbean sun.

Playa Norte is also one of the best places on the Isla Mujeres to watch the sunset, so be sure to visit this beach at different times of the day for the complete experience!

2. Don't miss the beach in the center: Playa Centro

The second most popular beach on the Isla Mujeres is Playa Centro. Calm waters, picturesque palm trees, and usually fewer people than Playa Norte make this beach a great place to swim, and then enjoy delicious meals and cocktails in one of the many bars and restaurants nearby.

3. Take a photo with ISLA MUJERES sign

Located on the east side of the Isla Mujeres, you will find a colorful ISLA MUJERES sign, perfect for taking some worthwhile photos. Never miss the chance showing your travel on your facebook & instagram.

4. Watch sunrise at Punta SUR

Punta Sur is located at the southernmost tip of the Isla Mujeres. It takes only 25 minutes to get there from the town center. Punta SUR is the easternmost point of Mexico and the first place where the sun shines!

The entrance fee is only $3 per person, and there are many things to do. The rocky coast cliffs are breathtaking and you will explore the Mayan ruins, once the temple of Iksel, the goddess of fertility, named after Isla Mujeres, and the impressive sculpture garden, which is interesting for visitors of all ages and women.

5. Visit the underwater art museum

A very special thing to do in Isla Mujeres is to visit the famous underwater art museum, which has a series of impressive sculptures, each of which tells a different underwater story. There are different ways to see this amazing exhibition. You can book a glass boat tour, go snorkeling, or if you want to get as close as possible, you can go diving.

So this review is pretty pointless, unless you are going in MAY 2023. The hotel is set to close down for a 6 month refurb at the end of the month. Yes its old and tired, but we did not experience any of the problems with linen towels etc that other reviews mentioned, there were always towels by the pool. Food excellent Boat transfer/ airport pickup seamless, with only a five minute wait, we were the only people on the boat. So if you are going in the next few weeks all should be great for you. One thing I do hope changes after the refurb is the Job of Leo. Please fins him a more serious role Leo is one of the most nicest, friendliest and energetic people I have met, his official title I think is ”wellness director”, but it seems at the moment he runs a kids club for adults. Leo comes round in the morning with his wellness drink, which we took out of politeness, but it was always unpleasant. Then you could seem him putting cucumber and cold towels on the faces of guests, who quite frankly look as if these cucumber pieces are the closest any salad has been to their mouth in many years. Next up it was volley ball in pool ( not required. Don't do it at the refurbed hotel) where 4 guests would shout and whoop constantly disturbing everyone else. not sure if they where whooping every time they managed hit a small ball over the net, or if was a celebration of the fact they managed to lift their arms above mouth height for the first time in years. Cant wait to see the refurbed hotel

Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres - All Inclusive
4.4/5103 Reviews
Costa Mujeres
Isla Mujeres
|9.62km from city center
(TL:DR) Oh my goodness! I believe Majestic Elegance Costa Mujeres has potentially spoiled us for any other all-inclusive resort for some time! What an incredible experience! It is truly an all-inclusive experience, except for their off-site excursion company (GoMajestic), and their jet ski rental opportunity (Book those at the kiosk off the main walkway towards the family pool/sky lounge area!) We didn’t have much use for the butler service (1-2 times during our stay); however, Arturo was a sweetheart and very helpful! As far as tipping goes, we were recommended by others who traveled to similar resorts (Seeing as this was our first time!), to tip $1 for each drink at the bars, and $1-3 each at meals. We also did $5/day for housekeeping, because they did have to change our linens a few times during our 5-day stay. She was such a sweetheart and so efficient, so we were glad to do so. Not sure if they have teams or not, but we realized we had the same housekeeper every time, which was really neat! I’m not particularly sure if the way we approached tipping was appropriate/enough, but they were incredibly appreciative and respectful if it wasn’t (!) Highly recommend the swim-up suite with the outdoor jacuzzi! We were in room 3010 and it was absolutely wonderful - The jacuzzi was great for when the pools weren’t super warm, but you still wanted to be in water! The bubbles were very loud, but that was the only draw back! The layout of the resort itself was almost perfectly designed! The adult side is distinctly separated from the family side; the restaurants and shops weren’t far away or in the way; plenty of space to walk around and enjoy your privacy, yet still many community spaces for meeting people and making friends if you choose to! The beach was incredibly well kept. The beach was cleaned at least twice a day, with security guards walking around every so often to make sure the resort’s privacy and lack of vendors is maintained. We felt perfectly safe to walk the beach and stand in the water every night. The security guards would smile and wave to let us know we were okay, and they were also respectful of our privacy as we stargazed and chatted, soaking it all in :) The food was delicious! They accommodated everyone’s dietary needs very well, and we had so many foods to try! The buffet is great for lunch and dinner, but be sure to put reservations in for the dinner restaurant options when needed, because you don’t want to miss out! The restaurants are all included, except the steakhouse, which we plan on trying out on our next visit! Otherwise, Mar House is fantastic! We were fortunate enough to enjoy the lobster dinner there - It was some of the best lobster I’ve had in a while, and I grew up in New England! Every time we ate, the meats/seafood were incredibly tender and flavorful! I could go on and on, but suffice it to say, we absolutely plan on visiting again, and bringing friends! The resort caters to a wide range of individuals, and we can’t wait to introduce it to our friends and family! The only thing I’d say we wished was that there was one late night community space for the young adults to hangout at after Legends sports bar/club closed, because sometimes they closed an hour early, and then there was nothing to really *do* between 1 or 2am till breakfast, and not everyone wanted to invite brand new friends to their rooms 😅 We did make some great friends while we were there though, and actually have plans to visit them in their home cities this year! I hope more international visitors will be there next time though, as it seemed to be primarily Americans at the resort when we were there (!) 10/10 experience overall, and we will absolutely be visiting again soon!

TRS Coral Hotel - Adults Only - All Inclusive
4.2/5110 Reviews
Costa Mujeres
Isla Mujeres
|8.65km from city center
We spent our honeymoon in TRS hotel with my wife. Check in was very quick and smooth unlike some other reviews i read takes a few hours, maybe it was on a weekday. Francisco at the check in counter was very helpful , he helped us upgraded our room to swim up suit and it was amazing! Sostenes and Cesar assigned as our butler for our stay and they were very helpful as well and always smiling. One thing I’d like to mentioned is that they said they have 25 minutes complementary spa for us for our honeymoon, and the reception told us to meet at the lobby next morning at 8:30am to take us to breakfast and to tour us around the resort. But the next morning we realized we have to attend to the sales center where they wants to sell us some traveling package which we didn’t expect, altho they are all very nice but we spent two hours there listening to them on the first morning of our stay and it was our honeymoon. wish they would let us know earlier then I would rejected, and they said we had to attend in order to claim the complimentary spa which at the beginning they said it’s for our honeymoon. Anyways, For food I highly recommended Gaucho steak house, we tried the bone in steak and they grill them with charcoal and it was very delicious , but the second time we went the steak was over cooked a bit. During our stayed we joined two activities, one is water aerobic and paddling. Both instructor was very fun and especially Dente. He was super friendly and patient! Overall we are satisfied with our stay, and would recommend to our friends.

An amazing experience . I was so skeptical from all these reviews but have nothing but great things to say about this place. It is a hostel and for a hostel it’s stunning , the location is great too. We stayed in the “ mini” room and it was great and quiet. The reviews say “ it’s so loud “ but it’s not even and I’m a light sleeper . I think the only way it’s “ so loud “ is if you stay on the teepee on the sand. I wouldn’t book them, they’re more $$, they’re behind the speaker and in sand . But the rooms or dorms are sweet, cleaners come every day, all facilities are great, security is always present and staff are lovely. I’m usually picky so I was so screwed after all these bad reviews but honestly can’t imagine why people are saying anything like that unless they expected a hotel or stayed in the teepee. The grounds are so beautiful and such a good location. ! It’s not a party hostel at all, if anything it’s too chill , there’s 2 nights they do a party but I never seen anything too large. Sleeping was fine with earplugs. Great hostel !

Cuxos Hotel Beachfront
3.8/548 Reviews
Isla Mujeles
Isla Mujeres
|2.56km from city center
I normally do a heavy homework before we pick a place but it was honestly very hard to find anything about Cuxos so I hope others considering this property can benefit from our experience as the place definitely has some big pluses but also some serious negatives. One thing I would get out of the way is that I would not call it a hotel but more of a condo rental that has room service, while the actual ”lobby” is the bar at Chichis & Charlies Restaurant right in front of it (they own also another property here adjacent to Cuxos Hotel, directly behind the restaurant and it's called Chichi's 'n Charlies - you can find their separate TripAdvisor profile here, I think a lot of people confuse the 3 properties a lot...). If I still got your attention then look into details below. Location: this is the biggest seller of Cuxos, it's the only property (next to Chichi's ”old building next to it”) that is an absolute beachfront on Playa Norte. There are some properties next door but they have restaurants and pools in front of them while Cuxos is right there on the beach, you walk out of the room and you are on the sand enjoying the ocean. We took the car ferry so the distance from the terminal is longer than from regular ferry but the latter is definitely a walking distance - you simply follow the main road towards Playa Norte and when it ends at the roundabout by the Playa Centro you just continue on the sandy small narrower road (we were the one of only 2 cars there driving, everyone else was on a golf cart) that leads you all the way to the Chichis And Charlies where your ”check in desk” is located. You can cross also to the rooms through the Nautibeach Condos parking lot - sadly though you are not allowed to park a car there... so keep that in mind. From here everything is walking distance, in our 4 nights stay we moved the car once only when we took a drive to the south of Isla Mujeres (visiting Punta Sur is a must!) so at the end of the day the lack of parking lot wasn't that terrible but then again we visited in COVID November 2020 so much fewer people on the island... Grounds/Building: there are 3 structures; the restaurant, the ”old” building of Chichi's 'n Charlies separate property (make sure you book the one you actually want) and then the on of Cuxos Hotel - it appeared from many older pictures that Cuxos was the most recent addition and it may be just couple years old, although the elements do wear everything down pretty fast so you can't really tell it from the outside really. While the old building has the restaurant directly in front of it, the Cuxos has the Beach Club where your free daily beach chairs are located - pretty convenient (see my separate review on the restaurant and the beach club). The parking for the car was the ”side” road that leads to the beach, it's narrow but that's all there is in the area so keep that in mind when hesitating between the car and golf cart for Isla Mujeres. Room: the rooms are very modern and u

The hotel is very comfortable, you can spend money to drive a jet ski, the spa is very expensive, 300 dollars, the bed on the beach you have to pay 300 dollars to become a member to use, but the white chair is not used. Good food, especially there is a 24-hour service to the room. I eat French steaks and groupers in the evening. It's good, free cocktails and juices, and a rich buffet at noon. One thing that makes me feel uncomfortable is that people here are looking forward to tipping you. I know that the waiter gets more money by tipping, but I don’t want to pay for it all the time, though not simply. This hotel has this feeling, but the entire Cancun is like this.

Casa de Los Suenos Hotel
4.4/593 Reviews
Isla Mujeles
Isla Mujeres
|3.66km from city center
Casa de los Suenos is THE place to stay when you would rather feel like an old friend than a guest. From the moment that you book to your arrival on site, they are there every step of the way to help you get to your final destination. And in my case that was destination relaxation. This is probably the most important part of my review, so I'll include it first. As a young-ish solo female traveler, I felt 100% comfortable staying here. There is always someone in the main lobby keeping an eye on things and they lock the main front door from 11:00pm to 7:00am. The staff will call you by your first name from day 1, making you feel seen and acknowledged and most of all, cared for. Thank you to Chris, Roger, and Carlos. As its located in the Southern part of Isla, you'll need to consider transportation options if you really want to explore. They have bikes on site that you can use and if you arrange it ahead of time, they will have a golf cart waiting for you upon arrival that they make sure is always full of gas and just added to your tab at check out. By far the easiest and most reliable way to get a cart on the island. It takes approx 25-30 minutes to drive via golf cart from Case to the North Beach. I also love how they have the partnership with the restaurant below, Kin Ha. Excellent breakfast that comes with your stay. The view is breathtaking and Gil who curated the playlist is a genius with the tunes that play as you dine. There are also pools, a water swing, kayaks etc, and snorkeling right there included. The rooms are spacious, clean, and come with a fridge. My room, the exec king suite was more than I could have hoped for, especially when you consider the sweeping views of the ocean. The pool is divine and cleaned daily. One of my favorite parts, the house pups Marvin and Nina, (and even the cat Maggie) were perhaps my most favorite feature. They are the sweetest and must fun Casa mascots. If you're lucky they will even walk you down to breakfast! One note of improvement, which they are working on, is the company that they contract with for the transfer service. It was a little bit discombobulated on the way there, but everything worked out in the end. Chris personally took down my feedback and shared it with the company so that hopefully things go more smoothly for future guests (note that this is not a reflection of Casa, just a vendor they work with). If your thinking hmmm I usually stay in name brand hotels (trust me, I am a Marriott loyalist to an extreme level), do not do that here on Isla. Stay here. The experience is part of being on the Island. You will love your time on the island that much more if you stay at Casa de los Suenos. It really is a dream.

This was our 6th trip to Isla but our first to Izla Hotel and I would be honored to return. We booked a Superior Ocean View room with a tub on the balcony. We never used the tub. Room was perfect air conditioning worked very well. They supplied shampoo, conditioner, lotion, coffee and started with 2 bottled waters which increased with our stay as with pod style coffee grinds. The bed was super comfortable as were the linens. It was cleaned perfectly every day. Check in was smooth thanks to Daniel who reviewed all the documents in detail and answered all questions. Breakfast buffet was included with our room and was phenomenal every single day. From a table full of baked goods to fresh fruit, salads, deli meats and cheeses, cottage cheese oat milk oatmeal, yogurt, seeds, dried fruits, honey and other sauces, whole fruit for grab and go, hot dishes including pancakes, French toast, bacon, sausage, an additional meat dish and chilaquiles, also an egg station for however you like them. Orange juice and green juice and coffee were endless! Thank- you Josefina and Eduardo you and the crew treated us so well. Chef Lorena was present and greeted the tables from sun up to sun down. Pool chairs and beach chairs were plenty just ask for an umbrella as needed. We ate lunch beach side when at the resort the food is great! We did rent a cabana one day it costs $50 a day and your food and drink goes towards that total so it was included as we had drinks and cocktails throughout the day. Thank- you Claudia and Jimmy for looking after us on the beach and around the pool. Our dinners at Izla Café and Numa was so easy and good and the desserts were very tasty! On occasion we ate off site and sometimes we would go into Izla Café in the evenings for dessert only! Very relaxing quite hotel. We fully enjoyed our stay and will return. Thank- you to the wonderful staff Melissa and Brent.

Room overall was clean and comfortable- though linens could use updating and curtains need replacing (holes in them). It was clearly redecorated fairly recently and looks very nice…. Mini fridge definite bonus! A/C worked great, fan in room was wonderful too. Housekeeping, maintenance, restaurant staff and overnight manager at reception were all wonderful! Day time manager was not. Every request or concern (burned out lights twice during 5 day stay) was met with a sigh and muttering. She was extremely unpleasant and never simply greeted us when we walked by. Could definitely use more storage (no dresser), and a line or hooks for drying items…. The few there were weren’t enough. The bathroom needs some serious renovating. It’s dark, and dingy, (in ways I was glad it was dark because I didn’t really want to k ow what it looked like). The shower head needs replacing (room 104) as it is so crusted/clogged with minerals etc that not much more than a few streams of water come up which made bathing a task… I actually took my toddler to the outdoor shower one night because trying to rinse her hair with the trickle of a stream was taking too long and she hates showers in general. The pool was clean and a nice bonus. Pool furniture not overly comfortable. Wall of green plants was a nice touch I’m pretty well traveled and generally stay in fairly inexpensive places… so I’m truly not overly picky and have stayed in some very basic places in Madagascar and Laos and Cambodia…. But even all of those had at the very least a shower that worked. Update the bathroom and get a manager that is actually hospitable and the place would be more of a 4. The super friendly staff (other than manager) are why I rated it a 3 and not a 2

This place is in a remote location on the beach which is nice in theory but terribly executed. I would avoid staying here overnight at all costs. They can't decide if they are a beach club or a hotel, but in reality they are neither. The staff needs some proper training in hospitality, especially the girl at the front desk who never smiles and makes you feel like she's doing you a favour. She threw our ID's back at us when we were checking in. I once asked her for some more bottled water for our room and she rolled her eyes and the water didn't even arrive! The rooms are average and the ‘fresh’ towels were full of stains! When we booked, we didn’t mind the remote location and not having any shops/ restaurants around but we realised very quickly that they had serious issues with the kitchen which was located outside of the hotel so the dishes would take 1-2 hours to arrive. The food is extremely overpriced and they give you very small portions so you order more as you have no choice because there is nothing else around! This included half a bagel for breakfast and an omelette with no toast, even though the menu says bread is included. We were even asked to pay more if we wanted a cappuccino for our breakfast. I never stayed anywhere that a cappuccino is considered extra for an included breakfast! The menu they offer is very different to what you can actually order - we wanted burgers but they didn't have these even though they're on the menu. We ordered the same vegetarian pasta dish two nights in a row, on the first night it came with only carrots and on the second night it came with completely different vegetables. The waiters were friendly, especially Ruben and they tried their best but they said rules are the rules and they cannot make changes. I am so surprised to see similar reviews starting from a year ago and yet no improvements by the management. The management team clearly don't care about improving or know how to order supplies for their kitchen. It is nice to stay somewhere remote with a beautiful beach but it was very hard to switch off due to the constant hospitality issues and feelings that the staff are trying to make as much money off you as possible. Management needs a serious wakeup call or else this place won't last much longer.

Had an amazing time at this property. My high rating is based on the bang-for-buck + location. We stayed in the Castle Rooms across the street from the main building and while the rooms we more basic than I have ever seen, the price and location made it all worth while. If you are looking for beautiful decor/artwork, fresh flowers, stocked fridge and over the top service then keep looking. If you are looking for a quick getaway directly on a perfect beach that will not break the bank then consider this option. We spent very little time in the unit except for sleep and shower. The room was very clean with daily housekeeping, the AC worked wonderfully and the little fridge was ice cold. The lack of in-room Wifi was new to us but no biggie....we downloaded some movies/series etc. before we got there and also downloaded some more when we were there either by sitting by the pool or at Buho's.....or, at the end of the hallway closest to Buho's....different experience for us but actually nice to be completely unplugged from reality. We have stayed all over the Island except for Centro. Each previous time we kept a golf cart for the entire week so it was nice to save a bit here because we just didn't need it every day....everything was so close to walk to which was a really nice change. Never had an issue with loud music from the Bar etc. as reported by several others. Also never had an issue with service. The front desk staff were on the most part very pleasant and reacted to any issue that we had promptly. I have never been to IM and not experienced some kind of power outage or water issue so this is hard to blame on the property itself. The longest that we were without power was really only a couple of hours and seemed to be all of Centro if not more and the water pressure was very good and hot or cold as you wanted it. The ability to flush toilet paper when on IM is also a common request from every property that we have been to.....small island + tons of tourists = drainage issues. The pool was smallish but clean and we rarely saw more than 3-4 ppl there at a time.....many times empty. We paid approx. $1250 each which included flight from Toronto/Canada and accommodations (tax included). A few years ago I would not have thought that this was a deal but with todays pricing it was as good as it gets....especially considering that we didn't even need to put on shoes to walk to the beach.....50 steps at the most from our doorway. We did a ton of research on this place so there were absolutely no surprises. I love touring the Island so a full-time golf cart is something we always treat ourselves to but there is really no need to have it every day when this close to the action so, this time, we only rented on 3 or 4 of the days. I also tried a scooter this year for the first time.....I was always intimidated and scared to crash but, after a while, I got the hang of it and was very comfortable booting around especially early morni

I booked a sea view suite for about $250 a night, and stayed for a week. Because of the US epidemic, there were less than ten guests in the resort, so it was empty, and a restaurant was opened. There is a supermarket in the hotel, open from Monday to Saturday, you can buy some necessities. It is because the hotel’s own restaurant is very poor, so it is necessary to rent a car to go outside the restaurant to buy and eat back to the hotel, the hotel comes with a car rental service, car rental 46 dollars a day insurance. The restaurant outside the hotel is very cheap to eat. Basically, it costs US$100 to buy enough food for 3 days and bring it back to the hotel. Talk about the advantages. Very quiet, sea view suites have everything, microwave, stove, refrigerator, tableware, washing machine, very suitable for family living. The bed is very large and very comfortable, really comfortable! Also, the hotel is very clean. The location of the hotel is not in the 7th district, so the price is very economical.

I killed a fly on the wall and the ants ate the fly so it was totally gone in an hour. One advantage of having ants in your room! While sitting at the pool I was crapped on 3 times by birds. Not the resorts fault but still unpleasant. The beds were comfortable and the room was large, plus drinkable bottled water and good free coffee was provided. Other than the nice quiet air-conditioning and great view I only have issues. Everything was dirty even the room floor. When you walk from the shower to the bed your bare feet are already dirty. The room was filled with mosquitoes so you get a lot of bites while you sleep. We used a full can of off bug repellant to survive our stay. Most all the umbrellas were broken so people got up before dawn to reserve their chair and umbrella by putting a towel on the chair. The resort got a few new umbrellas but the old home made holders did not hold them in so on a windy day I got hit very hard on the head. I asked at the desk if I would get any money back if I left early. The answer was ”no” because you did not cancel a week before. There was no interest in finding out if anything was wrong. Some of the staff were pleasant but most were not. The one really good employee was the young man at the pool bar. He was always very helpful setting up chairs etc. I took a picture of some pool side tables that had not been wiped off or cleaned during our stay. Look carefully and the nice table has lots of bird droppings. No one would think of wiping them off. I was amazed to find that many guests are regulars. I just can't imagine why.

This place is fantastic. The food is wonderful, the amenities are top notch, but what really stands out is the service. All the bar and restaurant staff, the pool staff, and the entertainers are great. Go visit Joshua and Freddy for the best cocktails at Detalle. Luis keeps the fun going. Carlos and Leyner helped make our vacation unforgettable. If you have time, visit NUUP Spa for Ana and Ingrid. Highly recommend

The hotel has a beautiful beach, swimming pool and paddling pool. The sea is very beautiful. Our room had a sea view. The hotel's buffet has a wide variety and good quality. There are 5 restaurants to choose from, so just make a reservation in advance. The resort is full of restaurants, food trucks, and bars. The activities are also very rich, with several performances in the evening. Activities for guests are also organized.

We really enjoyed our 3 nights stay. The check in process was quick within 5-10 mins and we were given the quiet room type as requested when we booked which is great. Room is big and clean with amazing ocean view and come with your own private balcony and hammock. Shower water pressure and temperature were on point too. We were worried about the Wi-Fi due to the numerous complaints seen online but surprisingly it was great throughout our stay at the highest floor! Fresh drinking water located the lobby with hot drinks making facility and they also provide microwave which is a bonus. Location is very strategic as well, just get off the ferry pier then walk straight up the road and within 2 mins you will find Rocamar. Supermarket (Super Aki) is nearby too, within 1-2 mins walk only. So as the restaurants, laundry services and souvenir shops which were less than 5 mins walk. We would highly recommend this hotel. Con: They can improve on washing the towels, though cleaned but still stained.

Service was great. Our ocean view room was lovely. The room itself was clean but definitely could tell wear and tear in spots but that wasn’t a bother to us. Food was less than to be desired. Every meal left me wanting more so that was disappointing. The beach front was great as well as all the pools and lazy river. We had some issues in our group with charges to rooms that shouldn’t have been there. They all eventually got sorted out but it took a lot of work to make things right. I don’t think I would recommend this resort to family and friends. I would look for a different resort but the island itself was good.
