Not a 5 star Resort
Happiness04227280471 on Jan 14, 2025
We visited the resort the 1st week in January for New Years. We had kids ages 13yo-23yo. There was a drowning day 1(January 1st) and I was the only one who knew how to bring the victim in from the Ocean. There was no flotation device around the beach area to help us. I was also the only one who knew CPR for quite awhile. I worked on the individual while my family witnessed all of this and it took the resort/medical over 30 minutes to get there and help. The resort didn't acknowledge anything at all to us. While I understand this comes with the beach, it was very disappointing that no flotation device, lifeguard or anyone who had any acknowledgement of medical care was around a "5 star resort". The victim did pass away while we worked on him and the late afternoon and next days moving forward the resort finally had lifeguards and flotation devices. Sadly this does not fix what we had to witness and go through. This resort also had nothing that was teenager/young adult friendly, unless you like sports. Everything they had going on was for age 12yo and younger or a sports activity. Everything they had online for activities was a cost or no longer available. The pools were very very cold, miserable cold, which in turn made the 1 swim up bar they had not accessible and no fun. The hallways and stairs were not cleaned once, while we were there. There was broken glass in so many areas through the hallways and no matter how much we asked to have it cleaned up, they never did it. I ended up with glass in my flip flops many times. Very unsanitary and dangerous for cuts/infections. Made service for the rooms were great! We love to travel to Mexico every other year and I don't think we will ever return to this resort.
Nice resort, good experience for group of 20, ages 14-45
RachelS287 (Cherokee, Iowa) on Jan 09, 2025
First off, this resort is probably a good hour's drive from the airport. The rooms are not in the best shape but we spend very little time in the room anyway so we can overlook that. Housekeeping was on top of things and our room was always quickly and nicely cleaned. The bed was also very comfortable! We were hoping for 2 doubles in each of our 2 rooms, but ended up with a king in each, the teens weren't so happy about sharing. The beach is rocky and the rocks just increased as the week went on, to the point there was not much of a beach at all. We could walk in both directions which we liked, but there was not much place to lay out on the beach or throw a ball around for the kids. It was a red flag the whole week but we did venture into the ocean very cautiously a few times, just very big waves but nice sand where there was sand. There was a "sports" pool next to the larger pool with a swim-up bar. The sports pool is where we spent the majority of the time and the real winner of the whole trip. We were a group of 20 and the group loved playing pool volleyball, basketball, and whatever other pool games came up. We easily found chairs every day, by the pool or in the shade, no issues with saving chairs. Drinks at the resort were okay, nothing spectacular but not terrible either. The rooftop bar was fun to go to and had good drinks, the lobby bar was a good meeting point for our group at night, and the pool bar kept us going with drinks and the ice cream cones in the afternoons! The food was better than some resorts we've had but also not the best. The buffet was good. We liked not having to try and rush to schedule reservations for the week as soon as we got there, except for the Japanese which was reservations and we enjoyed it. Would we go back to this resort? Probably not, but only because of the hour-long drive from the airport and the beach was lacking. However, our group's main request is to find another pool like this resort had!
