Hello Carol, yes we saw the videos and they looked very attractive as well as the natural beaches. Unfortunately they are very well maintained! We really have no desire to swim in a lagoon, it’s just the island has quite a lot of them. And yes, we think the food is better at this Karaters and the menu is very similar. There are actually two restaurants there. Karaters is on the lower level and another just above it. They say that there not related, but we found out that their one in same, but different names. The owner was not there during our stay. We did find out that about 5 years they split their partnership with the Karaters in SXM, as this one was becoming so large. (As was told to us by the guy in charge) But your right, it was hotter than we expected!
