Guests say
Guests appreciated the beautiful location of the hotel, with many mentioning the proximity to attractions like Xcaret and Xplor, as well as the well-maintained and clean grounds. However, there were significant complaints regarding the service, with several reviews highlighting poor communication, unresponsive staff, and a lack of attention to guest needs. Cleanliness was generally well-reviewed, but the inconsistent service detracted from the overall experience.

Pros (+) Facillities, food, location, cleanliness.
Cons (-) Dont expect to have a big beach area. The internet isn't good at all and they charge for it. The juice in the restaurants isn´t natural and the taste could be better.
