Grand Riviera Princess - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent
"It was our 25th wedding Anniversary. We loved our swim-out room. The staff and our concierge, Leonardo were fantastic. Our only issue was that we stayed during the rainy season in September, which is no fault of the resort. It literally rained for our entire 5 night stay. "
