Disappointing All-Inclusive Experience – Not Worth the Hype I recently stayed at this resort expecting a relaxing, all-inclusive vacation in Mexico, but unfortunately, the experience fell far short of expectations. First, the food was incredibly repetitive and low quality. Most of the meals were bland, overcooked, or clearly recycled from earlier in the day. Even the “specialty” restaurants felt like glorified buffets with poor service despite requiring reservations. Getting clean towels, drinks, or basic assistance often took 30+ minutes, if we got help at all. I tried multiple calls to the front desk & no one ever answered the phone.To make matters worse, there was a gecko in our room. I understand that we’re in a tropical area, but we didn’t pay for a room with wildlife. Not exactly the customer service you hope for in a resort. Our room was in terrible condition — it smelled musty, the furniture was worn, and the air conditioning unit was leaking water from the ceiling onto the floor. We reported it multiple times, but nothing was done. As a result, my son slipped and fell hard on the wet tile floor. Thankfully, he wasn’t seriously hurt, but it could’ve been much worse. There were no apologies, no follow-up, and no concern from staff. Between the unsafe room, lack of accountability, gecko in our space, and poor food/service, this was not the relaxing getaway we paid for. We left early and will not be coming back. I do not recommend this resort to anyone —

I have stated this resort three times total and absolutely loved it every time. The restaurants are all so good. All of the pools are amazing! But the best part is that it feels like you’re in a rainforest and all the animals. I would also like to add, how amazing the staff is every single person we interacted with was phenomenal. The only thing that I think that could be improved is being able to reserve more than just three restaurants for dinner per stay!

Cons: For an all inclusive resort I was surprised room service was not included. I would have been ok with a delivery fee but any food ordered was extra. Also the chair loungers were old and extremely uncomfortable as if they were obtained as castoffs from another resort. The floors in the room were not cleaned once during our 6 day stay. Pros: the location next to Xcaret made it extremely convenient to walk to and from there. We also booked Xplor Fuego through Occidental and a shuttle came with it which was very convenient. The property was beautiful with wildlife everyone. Despite the cons I would recommend if the goal is to visit the Xcaret parks for a more affordable option.

I stayed at this resort for 5 days a couple of weeks ago, and while the location is beautiful and close to many main attractions, my overall experience was mixed. The property is massive, and because it’s all-inclusive, you really don’t see many people until lunch when everyone starts to gather. We booked through Expedia, which meant we were placed in one of the farthest buildings from the main lobby and restaurant areas. The biggest issue is the complete lack of signage throughout the property. Trying to find your way from the remote buildings to the main areas, especially at night, is frustrating and confusing. The resort offers golf carts to take guests around, but there are very few of them, and most of the time you’re left walking long distances and getting lost. It really wouldn’t take much to improve this—just more directional signs would help a lot. The food was average, nothing particularly memorable. The beach was nice, though the area designated for guests was surprisingly small considering the size of the resort. Night shows were honestly underwhelming and not worth the walk. Another downside was the constant push to attend the 90-minute timeshare presentation. Staff were friendly, but very insistent, and it got old fast. To top it off, I asked a few basic questions throughout my stay, and the answers I received were consistently wrong—which wouldn’t have been a big deal if it didn’t lead to even more walking in the wrong direction.

Really like the grounds on this hotel. We loved the accessibility of xcaret and the all inclusive package. A bit disappointed that the pool closed at 8pm and there is no pool side food but there are plenty of buffet options all around the hotel. Friendly staff and plenty to see and do.
