We all loves our stay so much. Utter relaxation, great beach with loungers where you could order drinks and food. The staff was truly lovely. Room was clean and spacious. We couldn't have asked for anything more. And the food at the restaurant was actually good. I was a bit apprehensive due to the other reviews but breakfast had many options. Dinner offerd salad and soup every night, as well as multiple options for main course. Portions aren't huge but I didn't mind. The quality was really good and tasty.

Rooms were clean and all amenities in working order, we were in the hotel area. We had breakfast included in our stay and the food was very good. The prices for lunch or dinner are very high if you are wanting to stay at the hotel.I would pay half the price they ask for the same meal in Canada. We did not find any public restaurants within walking distance on the beach, so no other options for meals. Your only option is to eat at the hotel restaurant or go into playa del carmen by taxi.

Very nice hotel. Not cheap but that helps keep a good crowd. No visitors were rude or hollering, unlike other AI resorts. Beach was nice. Easy to find sunbathing chairs. Beachfront restaurant was fantastic. Food was great. Access to the hotel from the road is not great - road is bumpy and through a back alley. Staff was great. Polite, personable, friendly. Taco night and barbecue nights were fantastic. Need more dinner nights on the beach patio!!!

I come here for long solo vacation weekends. Great property. Amazing staff and the food is perfect. If you like to swim the water in front of the property is very rocky and not suitable for swimming but you can walk the shore and find better areas. I just need the occasional foot dip and for it to be pretty to look at, so perfect for me.
