Great stay, met with some unexpected events (the elevator was inoperable during my stay but was repaired by the time I left. Things happen no problem I got more steps counts for the day literally. The Pool Plunge took too long to fill up due to piping issues,and again it was filled up the day I left so I didn't get to enjoy it. The reason I stated these hiccups is because I wanted to point out that management did take quick and reasonable actions to correct and accommodate me. The staff members Thomas, Sophie ,Victoria at the front desk were phenomenal! All employees were very cordial as well.

Everyone at the resort was very kind and accommodating. I do wish they had a better selection of food. The snack bar food was great. Dinner options just weren't our favorite. They stayed on top of anything we needed. Tomas was great in preparing us for the trip. And Jimena was wondeful with helping us with activities. I highly recommend the Cirque dinner experience.

The hotel was practically empty, with very few employees and limited dining options. It was also very isolated. The drink selection was extremely basic. Overall, I will never go back to that hotel.

I booked a 6-night stay for my birthday and had to leave after just one night. The room was unbearably humid and covered in black mold, which immediately triggered my asthma. I messaged the hotel right away with photos and explained my health concerns. They promised a manager would speak with me the next morning, but he was conveniently “unavailable” all day despite multiple attempts. The front desk offered another room, but I was too disgusted and worried for my health to stay. I checked out by early afternoon and moved to another hotel. Since then, the hotel has ignored all emails from me and Expedia requesting a refund. Extremely disappointed, this place is unsanitary and unprofessional.

Do not recommend pictures online way old Place is poorly maintained and not very clean. If you were to stumble on the place you would think it’s abandoned not one person I came across there thought it was a good place. It looked like it was once a nice romantic spot but it is mismanaged. The staff was nice but beyond that place is a dump

We enjoyed our stay at the property. It was quiet and perfect for relaxing. The staff was excellent and very friendly. I gave it 4 stars as there were a number of areas that need to be addressed. Drawbacks - There is only one restaurant and the choices where very limited. I had to complain to the chef as the same menu was served three times during our stay. I must say that he did listen and changed it up. The infinity pool is the only feature of the property. However it does need a complete makeover. The pool has many loose tiles. The beach next to the property is not safe for swimming and has a lot of seaweed, but just down the steps on the one side you can walk a short distance to a safe swimmable beach. I understand that the property is under new management and a makeover is planed.

All in all the stay was great. Top notch food, the room was pretty clean and the staff was friendly. Thw jacuzzi tub in the room ran out of hot water by the time it was 1/4 of the way full which wasnt all that great. I think the bartenders, waiters and the staff made the stay a lot better. The location was much different than Cancun as you could not walk anywhere from the property except along the beach. It was a good mile walk from property to the main road and then 30-45min in either direction to get into town. Taxi to Playa Del Carmen ferry was 20$ ea way which was more than reasonable. Air conditioning in the room was non adjustable. It was either in or off as it controlled a the rooms which we managed fairly well as it was comfortable and maybe even a bit cold. Would we recommend the resort. Definitely. Would we stay there again. More than likely. We like to explore a lot more than we did so we will probably pick something a bit closer to town or at the very least along a bus line.
