The property was beyond beautiful! So many animals free roaming the property. Mayan ruins tucked away throughout the grounds. The pools were very nice with plenty of seating. The employees were excellent with a special call put to Dayreth and her yoga class. Check-in was easy although we were provided no information about the property. We had to ask around to a number of people about what was included and what wasn’t. Some pools are reserved for special club members but they were not well marked nor were we told about them. The Expedia description listed a water park so we assumed we had access to Xcaret. But that was not the case. The best we can tell the “water park” referenced was a child’s play area. The food was very poor. It was tasteless and rarely warmer than room temperature in the buffets as well as the restaurants. I would still go back if a good deal presented itself.

Awesome resort with great staff and abundance of wildlife. Food and drinks were on point compared to other resorts that I have visited in the area. Beach area is a safe place for swimming with no waves and lots of shallow water for kids.

The room and resort was amazing. There was lots to do and the staff was very helpful and easy to find. There is a membership that the staff push pretty hard. They want you to go to a 90 min seminar and most of the staff will mention it to you.The buffet breakfast was not very good. The buffet dinner was pretty good, nothing remarkable but edible. The Mexican restaurant that you make reservations for, the food was not good but the staff was great. The Italian restaurant that you make reservations for was really good. The Steakhouse that you make reservations for was ok. The staff was great. The steak was overcooked. The snack bar was not very good. The food was fairly bland. Other than the food, we had an amazing time.

This is a very beautiful property. You did a great job at creating a place that genuinely feels like a natural extension of the environment. Conversely, soon as I arrived I was being treated like a money sign and received very poor service, and I think for the wrong reasons. We had numerous staff tell us one thing and then we would come back and they would tell us another thing. This was not a language barrier. We also found the waiters to be quite rude: waiters would say snide things, make disparaging comments about your looks, disparage you for not knowing Spanish, and in general treat you poorly. Did not expect this from a supposed five star resort.
