Summary: Food is amazing, I especially loved the gluten and lactose free options! Chef's and staff there are world class. The views are breathtaking! The grounds are so nicely taken care of and such an amazing theme and variety of tropical plants! A few cautions that may be helpful to some travelers who have limited mobility. There's a lot of stairs or ramps to get down to the pool area. I don't believe there's traditional AC, the rooms seem to have a built in swamp cooler and a separate floor dehumidifier. There's no surprise that it's a humid climate, but I was still a little taken back at just how much water the dehumidifier pulled out of the air. Probably 3-4 gallons per day. The issue is the by product of a dehumidifier running is it produces heat which in turn negates some of the cooling ability of the swamp cooler. On average the room would be in the 19-21 Celsius range. So if you're used to colder conditions etc, you may not be as comfortable. But, the contrast from outside to inside of the room makes a big difference and you are able to cool down. In my opinion the resort should upgrade to mini-split AC units for each room. And also vent the hot air output of the de-humidifiers outside. Overall a lifetime experience there and I wouldn't let the AC stop someone from going, just don't expect western hotel or home like AC.

Summary: The little restaurant opposite the buffet is really nice, the staff is wonderful! The food is better than the buffet, but a very limited menu, I would suggest a choice of the day to add diversity. No other good restaurants in the neighborhood of the hotel.

Summary: An unforgettable experience! Three night stay. Pool is lovely and visited by colorful Toucans. Monkeys on the property looking for a fruit treat. A jungle adventure just looking out from your balcony or from the great upstairs bar area. We did not do the all inclusive option as it's too much food and expensive. The a la carte restaurant was seriously good. Fillet mignon was prepared perfectly and my wife's chicken breast with potatoes was thoroughly enjoyed. Highly recommend the resort and all of its options for visiting the canal and lake Gatum.
