I really do not know why this resort gets so many bad reviews. First things first this is not a Four Seasons, so if you are expecting that type of resort you might as well unpack your bags and stay home. Ill try to keep the review short and sweet. You are going to a foreign country, bring Imodium AD... more

We have today (9th September 2008) returned from a 2 week break at the LIfestyle Tropical resort and had an absolutely fantastic time. Before our trip I had read quite a few reviews for the resort both positive and negative and so I was a little trepidatious, but everything was first class.
