Des arracheurs d'argent!!!!!
L'hôtel était très bien pour les enfants mais tous les services payants sont très, très chers à la limite du vol, même les excursions. Surtout n'achetez pas les excursions Delphinus pour le dauphins. C'est trop cher pour l'activité et le personnel est très chiant, pas le droit de prendre des photos et tout est très minuté. Le buffet de l'hôtel est excellent mais les restaurants à la carte moyens. Le service des restaurants à la carte laissent à désirer. Les moustiques sont très désagréables. Le magasin est très cher et ils noys surveillent comme si nous étions des voleurs. très d.sagréable.

Short walk from hotel
On the beach towards the adult section there is a little market that sell massages, braids, souvenirs and excursions. Go there for these things its way less expansive and they are negociable... A LOT! like the braids, on the hotel thet are 40$ half a head and on the beach its 25$!!!

Perfect family trip (kids: 4, 10, 14 mom/dad)
We traveled Easter week--which we have been told the busiest time for the resort. Having said that, the hotel never seemed overly crowded. We always had chairs at the beach, though shaded areas at the pool needed to be secured early (8 am) in the morning. Truly no problem. Food was good. Plenty of options and better than expected for an all inclusive--value-priced resort. Liquor. Is not top shelf--but again , not paying for it. Bartenders were fantastic. Especially Luis, Fernandez and drat, I forgot the others. But all staff was terrific. Activities. Really everything you want to do is here. Anyone that is bored has serious issues.

Not Applicable
If you are going to Tulum simply take a taxi, don't fall for the tourist trap of the all inclusive ride/guide/beach deal. We paid $35 per person which included transportation back & forth to resort as well as a trip to Paradise beach and a guide for Tulum. Totally not worth it!! Save yourself $15 dollars, take a taxi & buy a ticket when you get to Tulum to get in ($5). Also they have tons of places to eat and shop just outside the parks entrance so you can go at your own pace!

FABULOUS! FABULOUS!!
This was a perfect getaway! Direct flight from New York-- we were on the beach in under 4 hours! Intercontinental staff is very accommodating and service was great. We spent our whole time on the beach, though the pool was beautiful. Many staff to bring your heart's desire to your lounge chair. Great beach for walking, water was a perfect temp and lots of waves to body surf. We took the bus, right outside the hotel, to Playa del Carmen! Ate at a fabulous bistro. We also elected the katamaran snorkling trip one day which was terrific. We are in love... and now thinking where to go next???

Great trip!
Just got back from a 7 night stay at Sandos, overall was amazing and would definitely return! The location was great, right on the beach but mixed in with a jungle-like atmosphere, so it stood out from many of the other all-inclusives I've stayed at in that it wasn't just a beach hotel. Also very close cheapr cab ride to Downtown Playa del Carmen. The staff were all amazing, i can't say enough about how friendly and accomodating everyone was! Go to bartender Roy in the sports bar, he rocked! he'll make you welcome shots too! My words to the wise are to bring your own hair dryer, the one in the room was basically useless, it shouldn't even be there you're better off not attempting to use it and getting aggravted! and also, they have insect repellent amply located about the resot... use it! it's there for a reason. I came home with an insane amount of bug bites. But if those are my only complaints, I'm ok with it! overall amazing time!!

Not Worth Your Vacation Stay
For the investment of a vacation it is not the resort to stay at. The food was not good, the rooms were terrible. I would suggest not staying here.

Do not stay here
Our experience was not great at all. We had so many problems. I feel this was a 3 star resort. The food was terrible There are so many other nicer resorts in the area. The toilets kepted clogging, the outdoor jaccuzi was dirty, we were told it was adult section when the area was a lot of children, the rooms were very mildewy smelling, Cheap Tickets told us this was a wonderful resort and for what we paid, it was not the case.
