  • Overall: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "Be sure to ask for the Premium liquors, (Highly recommend the Don Julio tequila) Biggest drawback was the fiasco and waiting during the Mexican Customs encounter upon arriving at airport." source Travelocity

    "Overall, their constant pressure to join their premier club was extremely annoying and stressful. Would NOT stay there again." source Travelocity

    "The people are very friendly, the service is wonderful, the hotel is very clean and well maintained and the beach is beautiful." source Travelocity

  • Clean: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "this hotel was wonderful are room was very clean and nice the wait staff was very frindly and no one expected to be tipped although it does help, in room refidge has small assortment of drinks they refill daily, pools were wonderful, view was great." source Travelocity

    "One day after having our room cleaned the cleaning person had made a bunny out of towles and placed it on our bed, along with organazing all of our bathroom stuff and placing it neatly and ordely on a washcloth." source Travelocity

    "Rooms are clean and big, private balcony was great - sit out there and read - even if not on pool side still have a view of lagoon and not too noisy." source Travelocity

    "Although the resort was very pretty and clean, the food was awful (very bland) and we spent very little time at the resort because we were bored." source Travelocity

    "The beach is feet away from your room, the view is magnificent, the rooms are clean, the staff are friendly, the food selection is great." source Travelocity

    "We also tried room service for midnight snack and the service was excellent." source Orbitz

    "The front desk were very friendly and the staff was very very nice." source Travelocity

    "There was one lady at the reception to the brefast dining room who was super, The maid service was good, Left my hat in the dining room, went back to get it , was told that no one had seen it, so lock up you vauables." source Travelocity

    "The food was bad, service was not good (we ordered room service one morning and it never came), and there was not much in nightly entertainment besides some cheesy shows in the dinner timeframe." source Travelocity

    "Many times at other hotels the service at the restaurants and the bars was very poor but not here, they remember your names and your drinks and you didnt have to wait more than a minute to get a refill." source Travelocity

  • Location: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "I really liked the location, it was not right downtown, but still really close." source Orbitz

    "Nice beach area as well with lounge chairs and umbrellas." source Orbitz

    "The location of the hotel is close to all the shops and restaurants." source Travelocity

    "You had the choice of sitting by the quieter all adult pool and hot tub area, or you could go to the louder, more action-packed pool area(s) where there were contests, activities, etc." source Travelocity

    "Even the Pool Lunch area was little different every day. Dinners at the buffet in theater area,Rosmarinus,and Marco Polo were great." source Travelocity

  • Value: Rating of 4.5 out of 5

    "However, I ended up booking a round trip private shuttle through the cancun airport website (through cancun shuttle) and that was an excellent experience (cost us $75)." source Travelocity

    "The food could have been better and would have like a bar closer to the beach so we would have such a long walk but that was a small price to pay for a great time." source Travelocity

    "If I didn't know the price ahead of time I would have thought it was double of what we actually paid." source Travelocity

    "( nothing a little alchol wont solve) Overall I dont think you can beat this place for price only." source Travelocity

    "Hoping the price wasn't the only alluring aspect for me and that the good out weighed the bad." source Travelocity
