    Excellent entertainment

    Entertainment is 10/10! Brian is an excellent aqua fitness coach and Luis was an amazing kayak guide. Shows were fun! Attentive staff. The preferred club server, Sergio was excellent.

    I would avoid

    Location is decent for access to Coco Bongs etc. Hotel staff very good and couldn’t do enough for you. Pool and beach decent however it’s a nightmare to get sun loungers because there is always a wedding on which gets priority areas on the beach. The rest of the beach areas are for preferred club members which is an upgrade option ($60-90 per day). Food is decent, drinks okay (better drinks available on the preferred club upgrade). Overall I wouldn’t recommend this hotel, we ended up having to upgrade just to get sun loungers in the sun which is a bit of a joke having already paid for a premium room and all inclusive holiday.

    Lovely resort

    Excellent experience. Hotel staff are so friendly and it is located on the best beach in Cancun. Exceeded my expectations.

    Mediocre resort with even more mediocre food. Do not recommend.

    Basically a below average resort with mediocre food at best. The only bright was the beach concert by Alexandra which was really nice under the night sky. Only go if you're ok with an overall mediocre experience. I would rather spend a bit more and go to nicer resort.

    No Hot Water

    The lack of hot water to shower was a deal breaker. The buffet selections were limited at best. The dinner buffet was extremely limited and cold. The hotel is dire need of renovation. The staff was amazing and the spa was excellent. With that being said, I wouldn't recommend this resort and I will not return, at the end of the day I need a hot shower.
