We had an early flight so we arrived before check in time. (We knew that we had to wait, so that was not an issue). Upon arrival, we couldn’t use the facilities until after 11AM. If we wanted to use the facilities it was an extra $15 per person. Right before 11 AM we were called so they could put our bracelets on and we could make use of the facilities. We were given keys to get towels at the pools and beach are. (Don’t lose the keys otherwise at check out you have to pay an extra $20). Once we went back to the lobby a couple of hours later we were given our rooms. Rooms (suites were big). Note 6 suites were booked… we all wanted to stay in the same building but we couldn’t . I had sent out emails and spoke to management to make sure that at least my rooms (2) were in the same building. After back and forth and 2 hours my two rooms were in the same building but different floors. My sister and parents were on a separate building and my brother and friends were on a different building. My other brother ended up on a different building. Anyway as far as reservations for restaurants once you get your room keys immediately go adjacent to the lobby to make dinner reservations. If you stay 4 nights you can only select 2 restaurants for dinner, 7 nights 4 reservations. ( I didn’t like that we couldn’t make reservations for every single night of our stay. Other than that it was a pleasant experience the food was ok. Not the best, unless you go to a specialty restaurant.

The property grounds were absolutely beautiful but the check-in was absolutely terrible. It was extremely time consuming and they separated my rooms even though I had one confirmation for 2 rooms. Their excuse was that orbitz didn't communicate any notes to them. The food could improve as it lacks flavor. The lobby staff is not helpful and they need to have more workers to assist during busy hours.

The complex overall was very beautiful however, when we first arrived, the check-in service was very poor no signage they wouldn’t allow you to keep your car out front while you were checking in and then we had to go to another building to actually do the check-in which took about an hour the complex was so large and they had very few or poorly communicated signs to find your way around. It was easy to get lost and to get from one point to another point they had a shuttle, but only one and it would take 30 minutes to come by. they had many pools. The water was great. The amenities of the pool was great however, you had to have a card to get a towel but if you didn’t turn your towel in before six, you wouldn’t get your card back and you’d be charged for the towel finally constant pressure to buy a timeshare or spend your vacation touring and listening to them promote itself the hotel timeshare. It was annoying.

There is a lot of great wildlife on the property as it is right beside Xcaret. Having two private entrances to Xcaret is great as it takes many days to fully appreciate everything in Xcaret. Staff are very friendly and accommodating. Lunch and breakfast food selection options were great. Dinner selections were very varied. For the most part the property is kept very clean but could do better job picking up cans and glasses around the pool areas at the end of each day as you found the odd ones still around the next morning. The bartenders are not very good making the fancy cocktails as they should be made but they do not skimp on alcohol. Service in the al la carte restaurants was not consistent but upon request they were responsive. This was our 3rd time at this hotel and overall we would return again.

The property was excellent from the wildlife to the onsite ruins, the lagoon almost always guarantees water access provided there’s not a tropical storm, the onsite access to Xcaret was excellent, the only complaint would be the food you won’t go hungry but most of it isn’t something to write home about, the buffet options are limited and in comparison to other BARCELÓ group properties around the same price point it falls short. Even a 10% percent increase in the food quality and selection having pe would make this an absolute go to destination.

We like the nature view from the Hotel to the privave beach they have. We did not like that the bars only have 1 or 2 bartenders preparing for the guest. They looked overworked and overwhelmed and drinks took long minutes to be served. We would like to see at least another brand of beer. They Only have ONE brand. Last but not least, they beach bar closes their service too early. We got back from our tour at 5pm and they tolds us that the beach bar was already closing soon. Not a chance to relax after 6pm at beach area..we had to bring 4 can beers from our room...Choosing another Hotel soon to keep experiencing. Thanks for everything provided.

Great property! Very friendly staff! If you are an animal lover the place is a paradise. Place is huge so you could find your perfect spot. You like quit and peaceful you could find it lots of trails and nature to get into or quit part of the pool. Dig more of an Urban upbeat area hard over to the plaza. Food was OK/Good. Buffets were buffets, lots of options but you know a buffet. The reservation restaurants Ok. Good but nothing that blew us out of the water. We are vegetarian so our options were limited maybe the full menu options were little more impressive. To be honest I was a little worried reading a few other reviews as the staff friendliness seemed all over the place but their entire team was fantastic to my family. The time share push gets a little old but it seems expected anymore with almost all vacation properties.
