Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
Pretty average hotel experience- don’t expect anything too luxurious. The aesthetic of the resort is outdated with an early 00s vibe, including the rooms which had almost florescent lighting and probably one of the least comfortable beds I’ve had in a hotel recently. Wouldn’t recommend for a solo traveler as it seems to be more popular for families or couples. Food at the buffet wasn’t the greatest quality but also wasn’t terrible. Loved the location- sitting on the balcony felt like being in a jungle and the beach area was great. About a 40 min walk into Playa del Carmen which can feel long but very safe. Staff were all very friendly.

The property is a bit dated, but very clean, amazing staff. We enjoyed the beach and pool activities. Check in and out was easy. The only complaint is people saving chairs at the pool and not showing up until late in the day.
