Disappointing, Inconvenience Everywhere
I was really disappointed in our stay at this resort. When I checked in, the Manager tried to charge me double for the already exorbitant resort fee. After I pulled out receipts, they finally gave up, but not a great start. Then, there was not nearly enough chairs around the pools. If you didn't get up at 7AM to put something on a chair, you were left just wandering around the resort looking for a place to sit. Forget about trying to sit by the beach, I think those people got up at 6AM to reserve chairs. Then, we went to get reservations at the restaurants and were told we would not be able to eat until 9:30PM each night as everything was already booked. That's crazy! Then, if you don't get the "all inclusive" food, you are going to pay $4.00 for a can of soda, $10.00 for a latte, and everything else is really expensive. There is a not a ton to do on the resort - you can ride bikes around, but it's not really set up for easy access to activities. Finally, I felt like everyone wanted a tip for every small service. I would not go back to Fairmont - it was not a fun experience, so many better places for less cost.

Beautiful resort with the best staff ever
People is what make the real difference in these jaw dropping area hotels, and trust me, we have been around. Without being fake or just following scripts you can feel genuine hospitality that at times, surpasses expectations: Buttlers’ (Daniel and Alejandro) service were right on point anticipating most of our demands. Restaurant’s staff from Fuego (Dimitri) made us feel special. Our favorite restaurant has been Tauro, where we’ve been regulars on several stays, it is a classic steak house with aged beef. Despite being very busy waiters Sebastian, Justino and Eric are always very welcoming making you feel like home. At the beach we were very well taken care of by Joel and Humberto; at the pool by Ezequiel and Angel. Thanks everyone for pampering us! In general the newly renovated facilities are in great shape, its cleanliness is immaculate. Our villa’s pool was at perfect temperature. Heads up for the old phone headsets that might need change and the humidity smell in some of the rooms, and a change of the yute mats for something more hygienic. Value is on point, through time we have experienced different room categories and each of them feels just right for the money we spent. We are definitely coming back soon.

Not for couples
Wouldn’t suggest for couples. My husband has Accor status so we were upgraded to a Casita. The room was spacious and lovely with a nice deck overlooking the river, good ac, rain shower and separate soaking tub as well as plenty of closet space and room for luggage. The first few days of our trip were mostly quiet and peaceful. We only really encountered crying, screaming kids at the breakfast buffet. We could get a pool chair in the shade no problem etc. Then more and more families showed up and the amount of parents screaming in our ears, across our table etc plus their kids screaming made the volume inside bars and restaurants reach an untenable level as well as the amount of daily yelling that occurred around our room. The worst incident was when we were in the bar and sitting in a booth getting ready to order drinks and a family sat down in our booth and shoved into us until we left. I can’t say I have ever experienced anything like it and we have travelled all over the world. We had lovely quiet dinners at La Laguna, Gaia, and Saffron and Tomahawk at the Banyan tree. We did the morning kayak trip around the lagoon and the eco boat tour and both were great. The resort is fun to walk around and there are raccoons, coati, iguana, many bird species etc. We never waited for a golf cart when we didn’t want to walk. We went to the pueblito, toured the Cenote and went to the butterfly garden. We really enjoyed the resort and the staff but the other guests were just too loud and rude and had no regard for anyone around them. Wouldn’t suggest for couples who value their hearing, go elsewhere or don’t come during holidays or school breaks. We would stay at the Banyan tree instead. Highly recommend Cielo- the adults only rooftop bar at the beach. The service was fantastic as were the drinks and we enjoyed the view and breeze.
