Royal Decameron Punta Centinela

Royal Decameron Punta Centinela

8/10 Good
"The place was nice overall, but there is room for improvement. The beach was beautiful, and the food was really good. My daughter especially loved the show performed by WOW Entertainment. The pools could have been cleaner, and I noticed green buildup in the jacuzzi, so I chose not to use it. The alcoholic drinks were okay, but the glasses they were served in could have been better. We enjoyed parts of our stay, though I hope the pool and jacuzzi cleanliness improves."
