Check-in was a breeze (but we checked in on a Tuesday- we saw the weekend looked super busy). Very friendly staff. The room was wonderful with an ocean view. Comfortable beds. The hotel is all inclusive, so it is super difficult to get drinks or food if you don’t buy the inclusive bracelet. The buffets and other food options are kinda average but the waiters and bartenders are great. The area is very convenient to shops and bars but just KNOW the area is VERY busy on the beach and has super loud music, it’s kinda overwhelming!

Staff was great i wish i wound check the reviews on yelp before i made my reservation. Food was not so good. The all inclusive on my personal view is not worth it. The beer offered all around the hotel is one of the cheapest Waterdown beer. Buffer food not worth it. Room has small brick mattress with tortilla thin pillows no small fridge had to purchases small cooler to keep some drinks cold. Restroom small and shower door damaged it didn’t closed. Construction on site that at 7am I was wide awake with all the hammering and loud noises. I won’t come to this hotel next time. Now that I’m around just seen better hotels around also beach front and much better rooms and better prices

Liked: Cleanliness
Clean room but felt amenities lacking this year. Menus only scannable which doesn't work for those without a smart phone or no service in Mexico. The upkeep of the property is sliding (long grass, paint peeling surfaces)
Great location and nice pools but the rooms leave a lot to be desired (outdated). Had booked for 6 nights but only lasted 3 nights because of the room. If you don't care about the room much then is a great value. I moved to The Courtyard by Marriott and was happy with the room.
Vission on the balcony in the morning the best 1 night only some inprovment. Coffee needs creamer bigger cups l and lids showers suck nowhere to have shampo but on thr floor accomedatons beed higher end inprovment
Great location near the Malecón and on the beach. Fantastic staff, very clean, great pool area with many options. We did all inclusive which was nice, however only one main restaurant is open each night, as well as the buffet. No option to choose to eat at whichever restaurant you want, and you must make reservations by 11am. We were under the impression that there were many restaurants to choose from during our stay. This was not the case.

Hotel staff doesn’t help with food options. The food is terrible at most places at this resort. The hotel is in a perfect location but it is old and needs a makeover. Will not return because the food quality is really bad and to get anything at all you stand and wait in long lines.
