Rooms have NO HOT WATER

bigbragg (Fort McMurray, Canada) on Dec 06, 2024

There is NO HOT WATER in most rooms. The hotel and travel agents will lie and say it’s fixed. It is NOT. The staff don’t care, they pretend they do but don’t do anything about it. Book elsewhere.

Worth a visit

Annique A on Dec 03, 2024

I had an underwhelming first impression. When we arrived and I saw the aesthetic of the resort lobby coupled with no greeting upon arrival with a drink, I looked at my husband with panic. We arrived in the morning so we asked for an early check in and was told it would be 100$ but room wouldn’t be ready for a few hours. I went back to the reception after an hour and half and another rep said $250! I got annoyed and started comparing their service to all the other hotels we’ve stayed at in other countries. My complaints worked I suppose bc we were allowed to check in 2 hrs ahead of check in time complimentary. After checking in, my family and I went to the pool area., water seemed dirty, kids were complaining they saw lots of hair balls but the entertainment was good so there was a vibe. We tried to walk on the beach but it is SUPER rocky! You need swim shoes! We managed to walk slowly out in the water and the sea felt good temperature wise but wish we could have stayed longer we just couldn’t because there are rocks all over and I was on edge someone would get hurt. As the days progressed the resort grew on all of us. Staff are friendly and warm, food is great except the italian restaurant and the wildlife! OMG never experienced anything like this. Such a sight! I remember reading some reviews and folks saying the hotel needs to update itself but I think the hotel is the way it is because of it’s location - in the middle of the jungle..the elements have to be factored in. We loved the cenotes, we loved the spa, one of my daughter (10) did her scuba diving lessons and went out to dive with her dad, my other daughter (8) went to the kids club once and she loved it. The nightly entertainment is top notch, in my opinion, my husband went diving with bull sharks.. a first for him and I did the pre- ispanic spa cleansing experience in the Temezcal .. highly recommend. The property was fun to explore although 2 of the water slides were out of commission. Overall, it was a good experience, we enjoyed it. Would we go Back, not 100% sure, but do we regret going? Not at all.
