    Disappointing Experience at Hard Rock Hotel Riviera Maya

    Our recent stay at Hard Rock Riviera Maya was unfortunately below expectations. We encountered several issues that impacted our overall experience: bugs throughout the room, a visibly dirty bathtub, and no ventilation in the toilet area, which made it uncomfortable. Additionally, we were disappointed by the lack of IT support when requesting to view specific sport games—something that should be easily accommodated at a resort of this caliber. Dining was also frustrating, with consistently long wait times at nearly every restaurant. Given the brand reputation, we expected a much higher standard of cleanliness, comfort, and service. See some pictures of bugs in the room, couldn't load videos.

    Hotel is Top-Notch

    We stayed here for 4 nights and everything the hotel did/provided was great! The food was top notch all around and the service was impeccable. There was always plenty of seating options at the pool and beach, along with plenty of towels. Many activities were provided during the day and evening as well. The room itself was comfortable and clean. We'd definitely recommend this location to others.

    Awesome experience and great service

    Carmelo the pool concierge was very accommodating and made me feel very welcome. He centrally checked up on me during my visit to ensure I had everything I needed. He even helped me learn some Spanish phrases and did not laugh at my accent! Very good experience!

    Moises and Paola made our whole trip!!!

    We are just returning from a 10 day trip to this resort! We had a wonderful experience! We traveled with 4 kiddos ages 6, 7, 17 and 17! We stayed in a rock star suite which is one of the reasons I’m giving the resort a 4 star and not a 5 star. It was a little dated and run down compared to the 2 bedroom suites we have stayed in when we have traveled there in the past! It was super packed this week so the restaurants were in turn, packed. The food was good but sometimes, the service was a little slow. This surprised me because this hotel has always been on top of their game in the past! The main thing that made our trip so amazing was our butler service! We had Moises and Paola and they went above and beyond to make our trip fantastic! The pizza oven by the pool was out of commission all week and I was so tired of eating fried pool food and one day for lunch, Moises surprised us with a platter of authentic tacos with sauces and guacamole for lunch! It was amazing!!! If it had not been for Moises and Paola’s wonderful personalities, always having a smile on their faces and going out of their way to help us out, our vacation would not have been nearly as special! This has always been one of my favorite resorts however, I think it may be time to do some updating on the rooms! Other than that, it was clean, had comfortable beds and the staff was very friendly!
