Seems way more modern than it looks like, and although it’s all inclusive, there’s nothing to do apart from the small pool and the jacuzzi is filthy.

What an amazing hotel. It exceeded our expectations by far, everything was perfect - from the pickup at the airport until the end. The food was amazing, all the activities were fantastic, and the place is absolutely gorgeous. We loved everything, all the staff was great, specially Angel, who paid closed attention to us, always bringing us a new drink as soon as we finished one, and provided an unparalleled service. We will be back for sure. Only observation I would give is that there was one activity I really wanted to do (xul-ha) and they told several times there would not be an excursion there, and I know there were 2 while I was in the hotel. They should allow you to pick your excursions.

We were not able to stay at the resort. The location on the map is incorrect and the resort is not 8 minutes from the airport (it is more like an hour) Communication with the resort was attempted several times in several different ways and none were successful. A response came from the resort at 9:27 pm , much too late. We had to secure lodging else where. The physical location on the map is not a resort.

Quiet, secluded and a wonderful experience

Friendly staff. Good food and overall a very quiet and beautiful place. Quality and attention to detail is appreciated at this resort. However, activities and meals can not be compensated for, e.g. We missed the activities and meals for one day we went to a wedding in Chetumal, the actual reason for coming all the way here from Cancun, and asked if we could may be use the one meal we missed to move towards the lunch of the day we were checking out. It was impossible. Instead, they technically followed the rules and charged us for the extra people that stayed in some rooms. That was not discussed in advance but understandable. The rates are more or less calculated for 2 adults per room.

El staff del hotel es muy amable, igual que el de las actividades. Las actividades son muy bonitas y se esmeran mucho. Desafortunadamente, el hotel es ahora tambien un tiempo compartido y eso hace que la calidad de alimentos y mantenimiento sean deficientes. También, la velocidad del servicio en alimentos y bebidas es muy lenta, lo cual es una tactica para bajar costos en un hotel todo incluido.

Es un alojamiento muy cómodo y conveniente al incluir transportes y alimentos/bebidas. Sobresale al ofrecer un balance entre descanso y actividades de aventura.

Fue una experiencia increíble tiene tours incluidos los tres alimentos están incluidos en la tarifa; el personal del hotel súper atento todos desde la recepción; camaristas, batistas, meseros y los chicos de actividades no se diga todo fue excelente.
