I had an amazing time at Ocean Blue & Sand! The weather was perfect, and the variety of dining options was impressive, especially the Italian and Mexican restaurants. Although our room was clean and well-stocked, it had a bit of a musty smell due to the humidity. The service was attentive, but some improvements could be made during busy times. Overall, it's a fantastic place for a family getaway with lots of activities.

I had an incredible stay at this resort, with beautiful landscaping and a variety of pool options. The staff were attentive and made us feel welcome from the get-go. However, the beach wasn't what I expected-it was messy with seaweed during my visit which detracted from the experience. Also, the lunch and dinner service could be a bit disorganized at times, making it less enjoyable.
