We chose Gava Waterman in spite of the bad food reviews.
PLEASE do not make our mistake.
We had a Forrest suite, and the room was excellent. The grounds and proximity to the ocean also nice.
But that is where it stops.
When we arrived the parking lot was more than full – people parked up to 300 meters up the road from the hotel.
Nice welcoming from reception.
Then we went to have a drink on our all-inclusive bracelet. There was nothing worth drinking.
The wine was from a tap and my guess is 30-40% of it was water – same with the beer. The bar keep was not very friendly.
The coke tasted awful, and we ended up going to the store buying sodas, beer, and wine, which was not the purpose of buying all-inclusive.
Mind you they sold decent stuff at an extra rate in the all-inclusive bars ☹
Then there was the food!!!! Only good thing to say about it is that I lost a few pounds there.
It was absolutely awful, bland, overcooked and some even off!
And there was a half an hour line to get to it!
They claim to be in compliance with extra covid safety, but they still chose not to open the second buffet even though the resort was almost a max capacity. There was also only one bar open most of the time.
There was no cleaning in the restaurant between patrons and covid protocol was not enforced!
So to sum up, if you do not choose the all-inclusive and have a car to take you to surrounding cities Gava Waterman is adequate, but DO NOT come for the food and drinks.
