Our room was dated but clean and the beds were very comfortable. We had lots of hot water and good water pressure.
The bars had a good selection and the staff that served drinks around the pool were excellent!
Beach was very nice and clean. Staff were friendly and the restaurants were generally good. Would have been nice if there was a swim up bar but it is what it is. Very good stay overall
Resort is beautiful with several pools and accessible bars by the pool side. Rooms are clean, the washroom just needs some updates and a bit more cleaning. The buffets are amazing but the an la cart menus at the restaurants need a bit of work. Staff very friendly.
Rooms were very clean, mini fridge stocked every day. The restaurants had lots of variety and were the best we've been to in a long time on vacations in Mexico. People mixed well and were very friendly. By far this is a favorite resort and we will be coming back often.
Good all inclusive food and drink. Nice swimming pools. Shortage of pool chairs by the pools due to people hogging with their towels for hours while they go do other activities. The hotel should put out a few more chairs and enforce some rules, such as if you don’t use the chair for an hour your towel will be removed so another person can have a pool chair.

Food was excellent, staff was great. Room needed love. Ran out of water suring showers
Staff was awesome and friendly. No issues with getting or having abundant water/beer/pop. Room was clean, and of fair size. Food was good, a la cartes were good also. Scramble for beach chairs each morning, go early!

Everything was pretty much adequate, but nothing was amazing. Limited number of bars and long lines made things not so fun.. a lot of time wasted in lineups.

Lacking in quality of food, drinks and amenities. This is maybe a 3 star resort at best.
Clean room, great staff, beautiful gardens! Pool and beach area was nice and clean and plenty of room! Lots of pool and beach activities available. Property is big but everything easily accessible and resort offers a grounds shuttle service which is fabulous for guests with mobility issues!!
