Overall, this was an average all-inclusive experience, definitely not a luxury stay compared to other resorts at similar price points.
First, you’ll need to upgrade your room to access the full range of amenities. Without the upgrade, you won’t have access to all the pools, restaurants, and other features. I wish I had known that ahead of time. At most resorts, an upgraded room means a better room, here, it’s more about unlocking parts of the resort.
Second, the entertainment was virtually non-existent, which was disappointing.
Lastly, the décor and finishes throughout the resort felt quite outdated and in need of a refresh.
That said, the food was delicious, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating.
Next season, I’ll be returning to Valentine Imperial, I won’t be coming back here
