Feb 05, 2026My First, but not My Last Trip to This Gorgeous Locale
The natural beauty of this resort is mesmerizing; beaches (uncrowded) for miles and surrounded by hills, rock formations and native flora and fauna. The rooms were spacious and comfortable and every one faced out to the sea. Daniel, Julio, Maria Jose, Amir, Ximena, Alejandra, Alejandro (I mention them in the order that I met them) were the Entertainment Team and as hard as they were working, providing non-stop activities for us, it was always with radiant smiles and great attititudes. They are a big part of why I will be back; I look forward to seeing my new friends again.

Feb 05, 2026Looks good online but beware
Do not upgrade to preferred, you get virtually nothing for it. Colossal waste of your hard earned money. Food is ok but be prepared to wait. Minimal staff at the breakfast buffet and most food is behind glass so you have to be served. When no one there to serve you makes it very difficult to get the food? Barefoot grill food is ok for lunch but really the only choice poolside. Because main restaurants are so far from pool and beach area, and because elevators are so slow, be prepared to wait there too. I don't mind waiting a bit, I'm on vacation, but there are limits. Diner restaurants are ok, fairly quick turn around and good service. Pool area is large but because all pools are infinity minimal chairs for the size of the resort. Good luck getting a chair after 5:30am.

Feb 03, 2026Fantastic location, beautiful beach, awful food and drink selection.
Location 5 star Hotel condition and amenities 4 star Food and Beverage 2 star Beautiful beach with different activities to do, quiet beach, busy pool. Food is not what I expected from a "5 star" hotel, very bland and limited. Beverages were low quality and nobody knew how to make an old fashioned. If you want margarites or mojitos, it's ok.

Service of staff
Miguel in Castaways is a very professional waiter. He attended and anticipated the needs of all guests. Andrea the hostess at Market Cafe was very kind and gave each guest special attention. Mariana booked our spa experience and was the reason we booked the couples massage. The 5 minute pool side massage was a nice bonus. She even shared some Mexican candy. Carlos and Yameli gave great service in the Market Cafe. Jesus the grounds keeper/gardener worked near the spa to clean up the flower beds and clearly showed pride in his work.
