Thanks for the hospitality and the entire staff were very helpful. Provisions were made for a wheelchair access except for the locker in the bedroom which was not accessible for me.

Holiday Inn
the worst Holiday Inn i have been to. Room was dirty and the bathroom disgusting there was lots of hair from previous guests on the bathroom shower walls along with some huge green boogers. the maid service was horrible. i told them about the problem in the bathroom and they came out and clean some of the hair but not the huge boogers, Maid service would not replace your glasses with clean ones or anything else in the room. Even if you had the do not disturb sign on your door everyday at 8am the maid would knock very heavily on the door to the room and would say oh im just checking all the rooms. The room also had a bad smell and the sheets were dirty stained with lip stick. Hallway doors are paper thin you can hear the people next above everywhere. Would not recommend this hotel to anyone not even for your pets. Do yourself a favor do not stay at this hotel.

You can't get any better than this!!!!!
My wife and I relaxed and enjoyed the time. As far as we are concerned nothing was missing. They had shows or some type of event nightly and they always had some type of event during the day for both adults or children. The all inclusive is the best way to go. This is the second time we stayed at this Hotel. If we go again it will be there. The food was great. The rooms were very clean. Being in the cleaning industry I was very impressed. The staff were outstanding and always right there. My wife said they were always ready to serve you. They are to be commended.

Shopping tip:
Short drive from hotel
We took the R-15 or R-2 to Market 28. You get a great price if you start talking with those in the booths. My wife found two horses that were made with fish bone. She love them. We also took the R-1 or R-2 to the main market place in the center of town.

Okay hotel, horrible front desk service.
We had great maid service and when our safe broke, we were serve immediately and in a friendly manner. However, when we had trouble with our transportation back to the airport, the front desk would not allow us to use a phone without incurring a fee. The hotel was okay, nothing special, but economical. If you do not decide to purchase the all-inclusive service, each meal can get pretty pricey.

Time-saving tip:
Not Applicable
Take the bus rather than a cab to and from nightlife and restaurants. It costs about $0.60 per person, per trip. They run every 3-4 minutes (though we never waited even that long).

Great place to stay
My girlfriend and I are the type of people that don't need to be waited on hand and foot. We are also pretty adventurous and don't need to feel safe and secure on some massive resort which completely consumes all of our attention. The Holiday Inn Arenas was more than what we needed. We really enjoyed leaving our resort to explore the surrounding Mexican area along with islands and shops. When we returned from our exploits the food, drink, atmosphere, entertainment and service was fantastic. If you are anywhere near as practical as us then the Holiday Inn Arenas is the place for you.

Dining tip:
In Hotel
If you get the all inclusive, you have the option to eat in the buffet or to make reservations for the 3 different in house restuarants. They are excellently prepared and a nice change from the buffet style of eating. All options to you are free with the all inclusive, but we were so happy we tipped anyway.

Not People Friendly
Front desk, dining, and bar staff very poor. While the beach was close, it was small and unkept. Long bus ride to better beaches, and everything else you will want.
