"The hotel was excellent. The pool is a highlight and the staff were great. And the beach is right there. Club 91 lounge was good which served breakfast, lunch, and dinner. My only complaint was that 2 of the 4 elevators were undergoing maintenance. My only inconvenience, not a negative of the hotel."

"The food isn’t as flavorful as it used to be. My least favorite part is our side of the property smelling like used bacon grease every evening. But the staff is wonderful as always. Our room was super clean."

10/10 Excellent
"My husband and I stayed five days at this hotel. We have been to multiple hotels in the Cancun area, but this one is becoming a favorite, mostly because I like the close knit community atmosphere that it has. The rooms are very clean, air-conditioning was never an issue, and Room service was available when needed. Entertainment was phenomenal. The food in the buffet was a little bland likely to appease different palates but the individual restaurants were good. We even go to see the little turtles come out of their nests- it was nesting season for the tortoises. Unique experience! What I didn’t like is that we felt pressured to go to a membership meeting (timeshare) but we held strong declined each time. Over all, we would go again"
