Dec 27, 2025Great week!!
Fantastic week! Our Butlers Paola and Moises were awesome. My father-in-law needed some medical attention throughout the week and our Butlers saved the day in arranging for help. Very attentive and helped immensely in getting us great seats at the pool and lining up our dinner reservations. Would definitely go back and request them again.

A thoroughly enjoyable pre-Christmas resort getaway
My wife, son, and I spent a wonderful week at the Hard Rock Riviera Maya, staying in a room on the adult-only side of the resort, although we enjoyed the whole resort while we were there. As Legendary members, we admittedly enjoyed an elevated level of service and experience, especially under the special care of our two butlers, Lucio and Bernardo. They went above and beyond to make sure our stay was enjoyable and carefree -- thank you both! Overall, the service everywhere was excellent, especially around the members pool that we spent most of our swimming time at (and regular attendants Ari, Angel, and Omar who kept us well hydrated and made sure we had extra umbrellas protecting us from the sun), and at our favourite breakfast spot: Faro, where Maria, Marcus, Elizabeth, and Paula all added to our experience. The food everywhere was excellent, with stand-out meals and dining experience at Le Petit Cochon (steaks better than Toro!), Frida, Umo, and Wei. Ciao and Zen (the a-la-carte menu, we passed on the Teppenyaki experience this time) were also great for food, but their ambiance tends to noisy and busy. Market, Faro, and La Isla also provided great variety for lunch (and dinner, if that's your thing), but I confess missing some of the wide-open buffet choices -- there were some, but with recent renovations there are now various themed stations at each, with most options behind glass, making it a bit more of a challenge to just wander and graze. We did room service a few times for snacks, and pool-side service for a few lunches -- the food was still very good! Check-in and check-out couldn't have been smoother, and both Pattie and I enjoyed a mix of massage and other spa experiences. I think it's why Pattie likes these properties as much as she does. Our room was, admittedly, a let down -- a rather dark corner and somewhat cramped spaces for 3 of us (rm2139); Lucio had to come to our rescue to have a few early issues addressed. Also, although the resort knew well in advance there would be 3 of us in the room, everything was set up for only 2 (2 chairs on the balcony, 2 robes, 2 sets of glasses, etc. I know, I know: 1st world problems. But we did pay extra for the 3rd person ... ). The housekeeping staff were excellent -- we have absolutely no complaints about the cleanliness or upkeep of the room. David and I enjoyed the extensive grounds, especially the forest around the property, where we walked daily and saw plenty of birds and other wildlife -- the spider monkeys stole the show more times than not! We also enjoyed the Vibe City experience, especially the "big-ball" bowling, something he doesn't get to play here at home. I'll close with a shout-out to everyone at the resort -- always smiling and helpful, which ultimately makes for the best experience.
