    “Service: A) Spent 20 mins trying to contact someone to order room service for breakfast at 8:15 am and could not get a hold of anyone. Did not receive a call back. B) Multiple requests on restaurants went unanswered: example, additional coffee or water. C) Drink services by the pool are subpar. Started ordering two drinks at a time since I was not sure how long it will take them to come back. Drink service by the beach was nonexistent for three out of the four days we were there: One waiter every 2 or 3 hours. Property A) Main pool complex and 3-4 restaurants closed for renovations. While I understand this is low season and why they are close for renovations I think this information should be clearly communicated while booking rather than after arrival to the hotel. One of the days could not sit by the pool since all the spots were taken (main pool was closed) -Wi-Fi is spotty at best in our rooms -AC in the rooms is not working properly. The best explanation I got is that there is a sensor that if it does not detect activity for a set number of hours it will turn the AC off until it reaches a set temperature. We set the AC to 68 and work fine during the day (as long as there was movement in the room?), at night it will get to 71 or 72 before it started working again. Positive: -Installations are well kept -Food is great, especially at Tauro and Gaia -Service on some areas of the hotel are excellent (what you would expect): Cafe maya, Gaia and Tauro for example ”

    “I was disappointed that the main pool area was closed as well as three of the dinner restaurants and the buffet breakfast restaurant. As a result, there was limited food options. I would not have booked the resort if I knew this.”

    “Property is really nice. Convenient golf shuttle around the property that comes frequent and drivers are friendly and helpful. Only if the restaurants offer better food options. It’s all inclusive but be mindful of the excluded drinks and snacks in the room, and some restaurants have excluded items that you have to pay extra. ”

  • Stay was good. Unfortunately, it fell short of the stays we've had there before.

    “A Truly Memorable Stay – Highly Recommended! We recently stayed at this beautiful hotel and had a fantastic time with the family (2 adults and 2 kids – 14 & 9 years old). From the moment we arrived, everything exceeded our expectations. The service was top-notch — every staff member we encountered was friendly, attentive, and genuinely eager to make our stay special. The room and hotel facilities were excellent, with everything impeccably maintained and thoughtfully designed for comfort and enjoyment. The beach is beautiful, and we really appreciated the hotel’s efforts to combat sargassum and keep the shoreline clean and inviting, which allow us to enjoy the ocean every day during our stay. One of the biggest highlights was the dining experience. The variety and quality of the food was outstanding, something you rarely find in an all-inclusive. Each meal felt like a culinary treat, with fresh ingredients, creative menus, and beautiful presentation. You can make reservations in advance for the hotel restaurants via OpenTable, which is a big plus. On the other side, waiting time for breakfast can be a bit long (up to 30 minutes) since there is only one restaurant included in the all-inclusive package. And mosquitoes can get bad at La Laguna restaurant so be prepared if you sit outside. But overall, we couldn’t be happier with our stay. Fully recommended—we’ll definitely be back!”

    “I waited a week before posting this review to allow the property sufficient time to address a significant billing issue. Unfortunately, I am still awaiting a refund of $1,500 that was incorrectly charged to my account. Despite being told the "mistake" would be corrected immediately, no resolution has been made. I strongly encourage guests to review their final bill and ensure any discrepancies are resolved before departure. While the property and the service were outstanding, there were several disappointing aspects of our experience. Check-in was particularly unpleasant. We arrived at 9:00 AM after a long journey, and although the hotel was only 40% occupied, we were not allowed to access our room early. Instead, we were directed to change in the public lobby restroom. This was extremely uncomfortable and inappropriate 5 guests were forced to change in an area with no privacy, with luggage spread out on the corridor. A basic courtesy, such as offering a temporary room would have gone a long way in demonstrating hospitality and professionalism. Additionally, the breakfast buffet was very disappointing — the selection was limited, the quality was poor, and the standards were far from "exceptional" rated hotel.I would like to extend my sincere thanks to Dmitri and the team at the beachfront restaurant. We were accommodated to have breakfast there for the duration of our stay.Dmitri and his team exemplified what true hospitality looks like with their warm, genuine service. ”
