Mostly good
My wife and I went here for our 2nd anniversary trip, which was our 3rd trip to Mexico. This resort is not beachfront, but that wasn't an issue for us. The beach is about a 10min walk away from the front of the resort. I enjoyed getting a bit of walking in, and the whole walk was well labeled and shaded. They also run shuttles every 10 minutes if you don't like to walk. The beach was great! Soft sand with lots of shaded chairs. The water was quite clear and not rocky at all. There was lots of seaweed close to the shore, but they did their best to clean it out throughout the day. You can also use the sister resort pool which are right next to the beach. This meant that there were plenty of places to get food/drinks near the beach.
All of the pools were somewhat small and the water was way too warm. I did like that each pool had a different atmosphere. Some had lots of kids, some only adults, some more relaxing, and some more of a party scene.
The room was good. Nothing great, but also nothing bad.
I really enjoyed the food. The steakhouse had very large ribeyes, sirloins, etc. The buffets were pretty good (still a buffet), but I found something I liked at each one.
Not my favorite resort, but based on the low price I got probably the best resort/dollar.
My gf an I went to fui tequila to celebrate her 25th birthday. Once we got to the hotel, the front desk administration had an attitude to attend us. He also charged us a $3.00 fee and did not explain why. Once we got to our hotel room, it was infested with mosquitos. We were bitten all over our legs, and arms. Even in the shower we could not relax, because it was flying and biting us. The restaurant bamboo was terribly disgusting. There were mosquitoes flying around the food, and it taste old. The entertainment was terrible. The lady sounded like she got denied by other hotels, and this was her last resort. I was also overcharged for excursions and the people were an hour late to pick us up to go to the airport ... NEVER AGAIN

Hotels will collect 20 Mexican pesos per room per day on check out; the proceeds will be deposited in an environmental trust to fund local projects. The Municipalidad of Solidaridad thanks you for your understanding and support of this worthwhile endeavor. Thank you and enjoy your visit.
