Wonderful
It is amazing hotel for family. I have two children, one is 12 years old and one is 5 years old. They have a kids club for my 5 years old son, and my two children love the fishes in the ocean beach. That’s so wonderful for families and it is convenient to go to xcaret park. They give me a gift bag after listening the first club guid.

Second stay- a very terrible experience
Every day we had an issue:
1) requested a king bed, we weren’t told until check-in it was 2 doubles. Not ideal for a romantic getaway.
2) walked into our room with no clean towels and dirty used towels on the floor. The room overall was not clean, including:
Broken/loose toilet seat
Broken bathroom door handle
Mold in room
Lamp shade looked like it had been soiled
No buttons on phone
Visible hairs and debris in bathroom
No hand soap supplied in bathroom
Hair dryer was missing the guard on the back and it sucked up and tore out our hair
3) water in the entire resort was shut off for hours one day, toilets did not work. Nothing was said to the guests about this. And the toilets began to overflow with feces.
4) the fridge in our room didn’t work and was very hot. Had to request a new one.
5) the door lock scanner on our door stopped working and we had to walk to the front desk to tell them and they kept arguing with us that our wrist bands worked. The battery in the door lock died. It took 20 minutes of us standing outside our door to get it fixed.
6) no “do not disturb” signs, instead they walked around early in the morning knocking on doors to see if you were in the room. This woke us up several mornings on a vacation we were hoping to sleep in on.
7) food poisoning on the last night. We were very nervous to fly the next day, but luckily after a night of vomiting, we were ok to travel home.
8) after water came back on, only cold water was available

Beautiful resort
The resort is beautiful and you have access to the beach. Walking distance to Xcaret. The buffet food was bad, not many options and the food did not look fresh. The other problem that we had was the water pressure in the shower was horrible. In multiple occasions, while taking a shower the water was gone completely. It was reported but it was never fixed. The resort is HUGE, you need to use their trolly to move around the resort.

Nice property- high pressure sales for timeshare
Beautiful property but be prepared for a high pressure sales pitch to join their timeshare and to be treated poorly for not booking directly. Every time we left our building the "concierge" tried to sign us up for the breakfast sales pitch and guilted us for not doing it. Room was clean but had maintenance issues that needed attention. Food was bland at the buffets. We had reservations 1 night at the Mexican restaurant which was good, but had to make our reservation in the lobby as our concierge at our building couldn't do it. Overall, the property is beautiful with nice pools, grounds, and easy access to Xcaret. We enjoyed our stay but won't return.

Not clean - do not stay
We stayed for 12 hours but booked a 4 night stay. The room was not clean and we got two full size beds when we said it was our honeymoon. We went to a new resort and had a good remainder of our honeymoon.

I love the concept of this hotel , very family friendly, love the nature around the hotel and how they are tryng yo be ecofriendly. One suggestion will be relative night shows, they should try to enrich the night show program. Only the Michael Jackson show was good.

Love this property, we have been 7 times, but things are getting run down unfortunately. Our room this last visit was musty and caused the linens to have a gross smell. Food quality has dropped a bit. Might not return next year.

The hotel is located within the walking distance of the Xcaret park and you can dip in and out of Xcaret during the day, helps save some money on meals! The hotel grounds are fantastic, nice little beach, luscious jungles and plenty of animals. Plus some mayan ruins! The signs around the hotel request that guests so not feed the animals, but I've seen people feed monkeys from their balconies. Really sad and danger to animals, but there is no way the hotel staff can control every situation. We found the buffets had a good range of food, and the drinks options are plentiful. Staff are absolutely amazing and try their best to make sure your stay is as comfortable as can be. The rooms are a bit dated and need improvements (like getting rid of the damp smell!), but nothing too major.
