"Where do I begin to express my delight at finding this beautiful resort at the suggestion of a friend the day before I arrived. I found the beautiful king size bed too hard for me, but I slept on the futon quite comfortably, and the housekeeping noticed and continued to make up that bed for me instead. The mediterránean and Brazilian dinners were excellent, and all meals were quite enjoyable. Staff were so friendly and very helpful. Even calling to check on me after I had arrived in my room to see if everything was all right. The decir is a little bit dated, but does not attract from the enjoyment of this lovely resort. It actually reminds me of a Grand Bahia Principe I stayed at last winter! I will definitely recommend Marien to my friends, and hopefully be back someday myself. Muchas gracias!"
