Categories

Cleanliness
6.8
Mixed cleanliness: several guests praised clean installations, but multiple reports of dirty pools and requests for better pool maintenance lower the score.
Service
8.4
Generally good guest-facing service: staff resolved problems quickly and there is visible security, though there are isolated negative experiences (e.g., a warning call about cancelling reservations).
Location
8.8
Strong location directly in front of the beach and good pool/beach access; some rooms have obstructed sea views due to palms, but overall location is a major positive.
Room Quality
6.2
Below average: multiple reports of old facilities, broken shower, AC issues, bathroom ceiling collapse and awkward room layouts or poor views reduce the room score.
Amenities
8.6
Very good amenities driven by large pool area, water slides, kid activities and on-site pool restaurants; some negatives (limited palapas, ice machine issues, restrictions on coolers) temper the rating.
Value for Money
6
Perceived as overpriced for the condition: several guests explicitly mention poor price/benefit and outdated installations, lowering value perception.
Food and Beverage
7.8
Mostly positive comments about the breakfast buffet and on-site restaurants, though a few guests find the buffet poor or limited in options.
Overall Experience
9
Overall family-friendly and enjoyable for many (kids had a blast, enjoyable pool/beach time); despite service and room issues for some guests, many report a very positive vacation experience.

Cons:

Sugiero que tengan un botiquin de emergencias, ya que una de las huespedes se cortó el pie con la alberca y no nos proporcionaron material de curación y ni siquiera nos dieron una solución.

Great views and great staff are the only reason we did not cancel on entering our room. For the money it is not worth it
Pros:

Location, staff was friendly, food was good

Cons:

Room was not clean and looked like a child put in the tile and fixtures. Toilet wasn’t stable even with 2 inches of caulking around it. The drywall was peeling in the bathroom. You could push the shower valve into the tile wall. There was hardly any water pressure or hot water. The drawers had dirt inside of them and could not be used to store clean clothes. And our ice bucket had an open bag of chips inside of it..

Pros:

El restaurante arbolitos.

Cons:

La piscina estaba muy sucia y en mi habitación me tocó del lado de un balcón que colindaba con un evento que tenían (boda) no se podía descansar hasta las 12 am, súmale a qué se cayó la persiana de esa puerta, quisimos llamar para que fueran a arreglar y el teléfono solo está de adorno, es el puro cascarón, no sirve, fueron "arreglaron" la persiana, a los 5 min se cayó de nuevo.
A y otra cosa estuvimos sin luz de 6 am a 9 am y el personal ni avisó, no se disculpó, nada.
