Izla Hotel is well away from the hustle and bustle of the North End so it it mostly quiet and relaxing. You will need a golf cart to experience the Island. Ice Bear Bar is almost directly next door and attracts over 1,000 people a day, but they mostly stay at the bar and its beach. The staff at Izla are great, Dario the doorman is always quick with a smile and great advice on where to go for the day. Rejes at the pool bar makes everyone feel better and knows your name by the 3rd drink. The rooms are clean and the bathroom is large with a great balcony with a couch. We did not end up with the all-inclusive, which we were thankful for, as the island has so many great restaurants and coffee shops, get a golf cart and go explore! If you do buy drinks or food on resort, expect to pay more than in the States, it was usually almost double the cost of the rest of the island and always included the tip. Only the beachside restaurant ever opened the 10 days we were there with the same menu and breakfast buffet but they did have dinners on the beach and special dinners for Christmas and New Years which were extra. The beach is clean but you cant go in the water as the bottom is all mud. There is also not a lot of walking room from the resort if you like long beach walks. We enjoyed the rooftop pool as it was a little warmer and had amazing views of the turquoise waters and Cancun. All in all we enjoyed our stay but will find something else our next time.
