the room smelled of cigarettes. and they do not allow drinks or food to be brought into the room
Constant attention to detail and cleanliness. Great, friendly staff.
the pool and staff was great, the food at the buffet is subpar at best. the restaurants on the property are amazing, especially the Samurai restaurant (don't expect to leave dinner sober is all i'm saying!) make sure to make your reservations asap. the people at the help desk for excursions were fantastic, we did Rio Secreto. the massages at the property were great and worth the $$. the beds are very firm, there is a sewage smell around areas of the hotel but it's not horrendous. showers are just decent, our rooms shower head wasn't lovely but got the job done. a lot of seaweed but that isn't the resorts fault, global warming is to blame for them. all in all, a great "budget" hotel and we had a lot of fun.
1. The buffet food was cold no matter what time we ate there. The restaurants however, were very good. 2. The beach was full of seaweed and we ended up not even swimming in the ocean our whole trip. 3. The evening entertainment was just ok, but we have experienced much better other places. In addition, the evening entertainment didn't start until 9:30, so there weren't many people there and if you have kids you either have to miss the entertainment or keep your kids awake until 11pm. 4. Everyone puts their towels over the pool chairs first thing in the morning so there are never any chairs available unless you choose to move someone else's stuff. It would be nice if the staff didn't allow that to happen because there are times when people aren't using their chairs for hours at a time and others could have definitely used them. 5. There is visible black mold in the room and bathroom that appears to have already been covered up by paint. My husband, daughter, and myself all got sick on our trip and we are wondering if the mold had anything to do with it. 6. The staff were great! They were all very helpful and friendly.
They have a very nice pool and amenities such as access to beach, beach chairs, nice views and great lobby. It is close to the shopping and restaurants on Quinta Avenida (5th Ave). Staff was friendly and event director, Boris was quite fun and accommodating.
The sewage smell upon arrival is very poweful. The door to our room stick and seemed broken. This resort is in need of some repairs. The staff with the exception of a few sermed in experienced and very under stffed. Food was great.
the food was good, pool area was nice, lobby was nice, staff very friendly, a little pushy on the spa packages and diving trips. the rooms were small, cramped, shower was ridiculous in size and safety issues. we had to move our rooms because not what we requested 6 months ago the smell around the entire hotel was nauseating.
It was ok. I will never stay here again. I expected better. When we got there the concierge was trying to have us commit to a meeting to sell us a time share or something around those lines, he was very insistent. We told them ok, but didn’t show up to the meeting. The guy came looking for us to ask us why we didn’t show up. We were trying to relax without any compromises nor wanted any commitments. We told him that and he got bothered. For crying out loud…We’re on vacation!
Very friendly staff. Good food!
Lamentablemente la atención, el servicio es muy malo!!! Comida es pésima no hay variedad
Nothing
The first room I was giving had a funny smell. Woke up in the middle of the night with an allergic reaction, there was mold in my room. I reported this to the front desk and was moved to another room.
I love this property- I have stayed here 11 times. I can’t complain -from the location to the accessibility of pool chairs at any given time of the day… but what really means the most to me and my travel experience is the bed comfort which is great, to the quietness you don’t hear a thing but above all else the customer service is top notch. From Yulianna, to Zoila, to Delia, all of which work in the lobby and answer every and any question you may have. To Victor who always has a smile on his safe and takes care of every guest. Nadia and jasmine, and Johnny at the spa are amazing; and can’t forget just a few of the very personable staff Ivan, And loren. And so many more…. This hotel is truthfully one of my favorites. You see the same faces ; you get to know so many guests, you are so close to everything… and there is no doubt I will be back again next year, and the year after that. Safety/ covid precaution is maintained. The late night snack bar is a favorite, same with the swim up bar; can’t beat it. Breakfast omelets are delicious and if for some reason you forget an essential or need an American snack my vice Oreos 711 is literally less than 50 yards away.
The staff was great, always cordial and always ready to help Everyone was so nice. Good food, amenities and ambience.
I loved The Reef Coco Beach! Beautiful place with attentive staff!
Bad choice. Bad service, bad food, everything was low value. Listen to the 1 star reviews. They are telling the truth that this place is really bad compared to the other options. If you got the cheapest room just to drink all day you would be breaking even in terms of value.
