The flush valve was constantly making noise, the shower stall leaked water and flooded the bathroom, and the bathroom had a small mirror with a light that gave off electric shocks. None of these issues were resolved, and we weren't even moved. There's only a buffet restaurant and a snack bar, where the food selection is very limited and repetitive. The pool isn't as large as it appears in the photos, and the beach is small, and the docked boats spoil the view. Four days before the trip, I received an email offering extra services like very early check-in and very late check-out. I requested both and received a confirmation email, but upon arriving at the hotel, my very early check-in was denied and I had to wait four hours to get into my room. The beds are too small for a couple; they're not queen-size, just full-size. The crib didn't have a mattress; blankets were improvised in place of a mattress.

This was not whats pictured. The rooms are small. We asked to be away from too much sound and they put us tight next to the pool and the party that was! It sounded like the DJ was in our room. The bed was a brick. The room was sparse to say the least. We left that day.

Me quede con mi familia por 6 días y todo estuvo excelente, es el lugar ideal para descansar, disfrutar de la playa y desconectarse… Todo el staff fue muy amable y hasta le prepararon comida especial a mi hijo para la cena, ya que no le gustan muchas cosas. En general la comida muy rica y variada. Sin duda volveremos… Lo único que entrian que mejoran es el olor a humedad que a veces se siente en las habitaciones.

Upon arrival, I knew this was not a premium resort. The entire lobby is an open air concept with no air conditioning. The lobby, check in desk, concierges, excursion/travel planners, and common areas are all non air conditioned. The rooms are typical hotel style rooms with old decor and worn furniture. Beds are harder than the floors. BEWARE, this is a timeshare resort!!! They will attack you at check in and do all they can to “give” you free excursions, free travel, even free credit cards to buy things from the gift shop if you’ll only attend a 90 minute timeshare orientation. If you refuse, the timeshare sales rep will glare at you and make you feel very unwelcome the remainder of your stay. The entire resort has a moldy mildew smell. ALSO, THIS RESORT BOOST OF AN ALL INCLUSIVE EXPERIENCE, YET EVERYTHING COSTS EXTRA! Premium liquor cost more, they only offered us 4 brands under the all inclusive package we purchased. Also, they have 3 restaurants and require reservations. The Japanese restaurant costs extra per person and then they charge you extra for shrimp or lobster!! AND the pool closes at SEVEN pm!!! The ONLY entertainment this resort has is the pool and it closes BEFORE DARK!!!! You get a key card for the room and one for a pool towel. It’s an extra charge if you lose a room/towel card. AND, the front desk picks up the phone and just hangs up, so you have to walk to the front desk to make reservations! Restaurants don’t open until 6:30!

We stayed at The Reef Coco Beach in Playa del Carmen and upgraded to the Premium package—definitely worth it! From the moment we arrived, the service felt elevated. We were greeted with a welcome drink and a bottle of wine in the room, and the minibar was restocked daily, which was a great touch. The beach is beautiful and steps away, though a bit narrow in places. The VIP bar (Bar & Mar) was perfect for relaxing with premium cocktails in a more private setting. Having access to the Japanese restaurant Samurai was a highlight—delicious food and fun teppanyaki-style cooking. We also loved that we could use the amenities at the sister resort (Reef Playacar)—they even included the shuttle!

Fabulous location- clean - beachfront- pretty environment- easy access to go out and explore Playa del Carmen which was really why we stayed here- and that was the best part! It is a lovely hotel but it is also a vacation club so you have to deal with the assault of “ options” to be a “ gold member” or upgrade to all inclusive- and the whole “ buffet scene” was less than delicious. Drinks were also cheap liquor unless you’re a “ gold member”and the swim up bar- that was like a bad scene from the love boat!!

Horrible. Check Google for reviews. There’s not enough space on here to put my review. The resort itself is beautiful has a nice pool and plenty of seating around. Booked private pick up from airport and he was 20 minutes late so we got bombarded with taxi solicitors. When we arrived at resort, we were told there was an upgrade if we wanted top shelf or Japanese restaurant, but I had already paid the upgrade online so I’m a little confused. Food was disgusting. You have two places to eat the snack bar or the buffet otherwise you have to find a time that you fit in the restaurants because they only take six people at a time. The hibachi used fajita beef. Resort Staff was rude. Drinks were gross tasted like sweet n low with water. The snack bar must use soy burgers. The hotdog was an oversized Vienna sausage. Bar refused to give us a cup of water because they didn’t open for another 20 minutes. Bed was like sleeping on floor. Pillows were over stuffed. Room smelled like sewage and sulfur. There’s no daily entertainment besides water aerobics. There’s no night entertainment besides for an hour at 9 PM. In the end, this place is called Leading Vacation Club & they will waste a day of your vacation trying to sell you a timeshare for $40-90k because you have to have breakfast with them & then go listen to them in a room and you already missed the departure for an excursion.After declining to buy it the people that acted like they were your best friends never acknowledge you again.
