Hotel is really pretty with with a lot of natural wildlife but it was overall very disappointing. Drinks were all so watered down they could have just been mocktails. Food was mediocre. It’s hard to get reservations at the à la carte restaurants but when you get there, they are half empty. They are obviously blocking reservations and pushing you to the buffet to save money. We checked in on New Year’s Day, and there was only one place open for food with a two hour wait. Not exactly the all inclusive experience I was expecting. The beds were unbelievably hard. There are so many better hotels in Mexico.

The resort was nice overall but could use some upgrades to the rooms. The shower was small, the room was pretty warm, and the food was just okay. I’ve had better food at other resorts. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay here but I’m not sure that I would return.

The hotel rooms are outdated and the buffet is ok, but the guest service and entertainment is amazing! Cons: although the hotel is all inclusive, you’re not allowed to book dinner reservations every night. We stayed for 5 nights and were limited to two reservations for à la carte restaurant. You must book on the app 10 days in advance or your choices will be limited. The remaining days we had to do the buffet and having buffet breakfast lunch and dinner can get pretty tiring. The buffet is also just ok. We book for dinner Tequila restaurant and were super disappointed upon getting to the restaurant to realize it was buffet! If we only get 2 reservations last thing we wanted to do was end up at another buffet! The rooms are definitely run down. They also didn’t have queen beds so our kids had to stay in the pull out sofa which for comfort is just ok. Pros: entertainment was amazing! They really know how to keep the people engaged and having a good time. They do games at the pool and have a show every night! Everyone that works there is super friendly and will go above and beyond to make sure you have an amazing stay. Our flight was delayed and they let us keep a room until 6:00 PM for an additional $30.

We had a great time until the last day when I had a hamburger from the Truck restaurant there. Food poisoning kept me up all night in serious discomfort. They need to up their food quality. We had great tours of cenotes in the area and of the tulum ruins. Amstar is the way to go. The rooms were very well kept and serviced daily. The beach is nice with a bouyed area to keep currents from sending you out. Multiple pools with lots of access and plenty to do. My experience was great besides the food.

Great amenities (multiple pools, multiple restaurants, multiple bars, multiple separated areas for families, kids, and adults only, etc.) , very friendly and helpful staff, great variety of foods and beverages, good entertainment, and beautiful beaches. Convenient mini bank in the lobby, as well as a travel agency, pharmacy and gift shops. The suite was very nice and comfortable, although it had a musty smell that lasted throughout our entire stay. That was the only negative. Overall, fantastic experience e definitely recommend!
