The good! It is an eco park, plenty of animals to see the al a carte restaurants are good ( the lilies being our favorite ) The room are nice ! We stayed in the one bedroom suite , it had two baths , the living room had bunk bed for the kids. ( the only complain would be no door to bedroom, so if you want privacy , as a couple you wont have it ) the brazilian rodizio is an avoid at all cost ( not authentic at all, what they claim to be picanha is not picanha. Flavor of the food was subpar) the laguna buffett was ok, be aware that couple restaurants are being remodeled and are closed . The night shows are really good and it is must. The cenote although pretty , had a foul smell. The jade river doesnt seem like a river ( water seem stagnant and couldnt see a flow ) Water park was fun for the kids, in certain areas it can be uncomfortable to walk barefooted ( bring water shoes) the slides are good , although it my son and I got stuck in two different ones ) One issue that we didnt like was how the pool water everywhere was not clear, it was cloudy and definitely not clear like the pictures may show. The beach is ok , we went in July so algae ( sargassum) is present , but they have some mitigation for that and is not as bad. , the seem to clean the beach every morning. The place is big , so expect to get your steps in, if you have difficulty walking around , I would not recommend this resort. There are Mayan ruins on property , which was nice to see.

Love the nightly shows and hospitality from all the staff. So much to do here. The animals on the property were a good sight. The only thing that slightly concerned me was the constant attempts by the staff to push buying some sort of timeshare type thing. I stayed away and didn’t attend. Other than that, the stay was very good and I would return.

Disliked: Cleanliness, amenities

Check in was not great, the resort bracelets never activated, had to go back to activate them. Resort amenities and/or features were not explained. The room was fine, no issues there. The resort is a rainforest, wild life all around, we saw monkeys, coatis and birds. The pool was really average and small, was segmented not a great feature of the resort. The beach was really average and rocky. Rock wall in the water to prevent the sargassum, but that had made the beach really unattractive. The public areas of the resort were poorly maintained, public toilets were regularly blocked and dirty. The water park was ok, nothing extraordinary. Only one buffet for the resort, got busy, but the food was ok. The restaurants on the resort were excellent. El Templo being the best closely followed by the Fogo de Brazil. We never met/saw/heard from the Expedia concierge. The hotel concierge were also unhelpful except 'Karla' who was excellent. The Sandos Elite Club staff hounded us for the membership, called the room 4-5 times. But when we called concierge desk, the phone was never answered in 6 days. The Cenote and Jade River were the highlight of the resort and were the things we enjoyed the most. Over all the resort is average. Checkout was super slow and painful, took 30 minutes wait in the line to get service.

My Story

Everything was good, except the food. The specialty restaurants were understaff I guess, since it took to long to serve us, and didn't have the food ready. The Brazil restaurant didn't have meats ready, we have to wait more than 15 minutes between servings. At the Temple Restaurant, the portions were small and it took too much time. No desserts available!!!!

The food was terrible. The rooms are in poor condition especially the air conditioners. Ours broke only once, which was better than my parents experience. They had to move rooms 4 times in 6 days because the air conditioners stopped working. Management was disappointing in helping them. Many times we requested items for the room such as towels and laundry bags which never came. Some of the staff were helpful but it was hit or miss. Would not go back or recommend. Spend the extra money to go elsewhere

Im so sorry that my work money went to this place,kids areas are in such a bad conditions, we all have scratches and wounds in our bodies because of the pool and water park because areas are so bad taken care of, all restaurants closes at the same time so it feels like mandatory to be on schedule, The lobby area is very nice but they don’t have fans so you wont last a minute there. Fogo the brazil restaurant is only good at lunch, dinner there is a waste of time, dinner at the buffet is honestly the beat option for your family. It wasn’t a good experience at all.
