Great trip
The service is world class. The attention to detail and friendliness is very impressive. The resort is in need of some upgrades. Long ago I recycled the type of TV we had in our room. Decor is very outdated as well. Everything else is what you'd expect from a 5 star hotel.

Perfect...almost!
Great beach access with life guard on duty. Plus cabanas, beach umbrellas and chaises for rent. Waiters to serve you on the beach. And a shallow 3.5 ft pool for the little ones. If this is not paradise... Ok. There are three irritants. The dress code in 2 of their restaurants. Geez, most folks staying there were families on vacation with kids. Can't they create a family area with no dress code in these restaurants? Second, they charge for Internet access which ought to be made a sin! Third, the TV is vintage!! Perfect...almost!

Great time
Enjoyed the excellent service at this hotel. Traveling with young kids it's great that their pool is always heated, not like a lot of other hotels in Cancun. Very accommodating to children.

Short drive from hotel
Although attractive and in a great location, avoid Cenacola, the Italian restaurant in the Kukulkan mall...no real kitchen, just heated precooked food that is over priced.

Still better than ever...
My Sister and I stayed in a double room and it was pure luxury. Loved the turn down service each night. Slippers at each bed with a little linen cloth where you step on or off the bed and bottled water on each night stand. It's those little things that mean a lot. We stayed on the Club level and I highly recommend it. They have an amazing staff and the 5 food presentations are fantastic. We tried every dish and loved them all. It's a great break from the sun as well. We'd laid out all morning and headed to our room, clean up and have a long lunch in the lounge and just chill out. It's very hot during those midday 12-2. And you can just relax and have a cool and refreshing drink.
