Jun 30, 2025Seafood restaurant experience
Benjamin the waiter was very accommodating and attentive towards our needs, he explained to us our food options very well and communicated to us in English very well. He keeps a strong smile despite long shift! Not to mention, Tanya was also excellent and made our whole dining experience at Seafood restaurant amazing. Kudos to the two!! Well done!!

Best worker ever!
Andres made the trip amazing. The resort wouldn't be great without him l. He gets you whatever you need and always is pleasant. Multiple times he brought a chess set from home for us to play. All while serving everyone else at the beach bar.

Jun 28, 2025A disappointing stay due to poor maintenance, lack of hygiene, and insufficient customer service.
Unfortunately, our stay at BlueBay Grand Esmeralda was extremely disappointing. Despite having the potential to be a great resort, the lack of maintenance, poor service, and serious hygiene issues made our experience frustrating and uncomfortable. 1. People smoke everywhere, even in family areas and around children, despite numerous “No Smoking” signs. Staff do nothing to enforce this. 2. The water pressure in the shower was almost nonexistent during our entire stay. 3. The internal transportation is disorganized, slow, and not considerate of families with kids or guests with special needs. 4. The hairdryer never worked, despite daily reports for seven days. 5. The bathroom mirror was damaged and never fixed. 6. Some restaurants have no air conditioning, which makes dining unpleasant due to the extreme heat. 7. The terrace furniture was broken; the small table was unusable. 8. The room’s air conditioning never worked properly, even though it was reported daily. 9. The pool surface is rough and scraped our children’s feet several times. 10. No early breakfast is offered for guests leaving for morning tours — not even a basic snack or takeaway. 11. Worst of all, stray cats and raccoons enter the restaurants and jump onto tables looking for food. It felt completely unsanitary and unacceptable. 12. Finally, unlike other resorts in the area, this hotel does absolutely nothing to manage the sargassum on the beach. They let it pile up, making it impossible to enjoy even a small section of the shoreline. The hotel is in urgent need of operational, maintenance, and hygiene improvements. I do not recommend it, especially for families.

Do not recommend
This has to be one of the worst experiences I have ever had. Upon checking in we're told we should drag our own luggage to our rooms a substantial distance due to the amount of people checking in. After returning to our room after a quick bite at a less than mediocre buffet we found our patio door lock was not working and anyone could have had access to our room. In addition after requesting a double for my grown son and I, we were given a king size bed. The only alternative we're given is to pay for an upgraded room. We're shocked to find the pool closes at 7pm in the prime of winter. And then after heading to the buffet which is quite a distance to our room we're told we cannot enter due to our attire (swimsuit top and tanktop) although nothing was told to us about a dress code. At the time it was too late to get back to our room to change and no other food options we're available. Although staff had been extremely nice, this experience has been horrible. I would strongly recommend looking for an alternative. Note: a manager did say he would order dinner to our room at no charge. I will update my review as out stay continues.

The kids club has been fantastic!! Water balloons, sand castles, and a pool with a slide made it a great experience for my little!
