If I could leave no stars I would: that place is NOTHING like the pictures. We showed up the pool was cracked up, building rusted, food horrible, and so were the drinks. We checked in went to the room grabbed a bite and a drink and check out immediately!!!!!!! We didn’t even stay one night. AND THEY REFUSE TO GIVE US OUR MONEY BACK! On top of that they don’t even have phones in the room. All convo is through WhatsApp!!!!! DO NOT BELIEVE THE PICTURES AT THIS MOTEL, THEY ARE CALLING A RESORT! AND AGAIN THEY’RE MAKING US PAY FOR NIGHTS WE DIDNT EVEN STAY. VERY LOW BUDGET!

My husband cut his foot in their broken down pool. 1 beer available and same repetitive food everyday. Just don't do it

Pros- Friendly staff/ attentive staff The room was nice Con’s-The property is very far from anything , certainly for the older crowd, no activities I’m thinking adults only pool parties good drinks definitely not ,when I arrived on the property there was construction men welding the water fountain, the room next door was under construction nosey all day , the pool was blocked halfway due to construction, while in the pool there was a guy on the other side corking and putting new tiles ,hotel is very outdated , although the food was all inclusive it wasn’t very good neither were the drinks … as lovely as the staff were will not be back

When we arrived, we were told that the elevators were out, and our room was located on the 3rd floor. Plunge pool on the balcony was filled with dirty water and hair. Room smelled like mildew. Only 2 restaurants, the one on the rooftop changed their menu once, and the snack bar food stayed the same. Waited over an hour for scrambled eggs and waffles during breakfast, food was cold the two times we did eat at the hotel, and everything closes early. No activities whatsoever!!!! Hotel staff kept offering us drugs. The hotel itself needs a complete upgrade. View was amazing!!!! Lobby staff were great and very friendly. Honestly I wouldn't waste my time or money here unless it were FREE.

Best feature was friendly staff. Poor all inclusive option, not worth it. Poor Food choice and quality. Drinks served in plastic cups. Pseudo orange or pineapple juice made from obvious sweetener powder that tasted awful, no real juice. Cocktails: poor quality. Many food items on menu not available (funniest was not having guacamole), all variants of the same basic combo. Slow service, frequently forgetting items ordered or long to be served. Fries poorly cooked, sloppy. Elevator non Functional all week. Took 2 days to fix a faucet to have cold water running. Closest restaurants are 25 min away in playa del Carmen. Resort better looking on photos than reality, poorly maintained furniture. Beach Towels very old / used, need replacing. No social activities, the only adults only aspect is that there is nothing to do if you had kids with you. Music loudspeaker poor quality and only one playing at one end of the pool. Pool poorly maintained with many loose tiles. Small part of accessible beach on one side but many rocks making it difficult to swim comfortably. Other side of beach challenging to access (need to cling to walls and walk over rocks). Replacement of soap and shampoo in room inconsistent. Idem for mini bar. Welcome “Champagne” was in fact cheap and bad tasting sparkling white wine. Poor lighting in room (no light stand or master switch bedside control for main room light). Overall sufficient to chill pool side and read a book otherwise not great value for money

El hotel se encuentra dentro aproximadamente a unos 200 metros de la autopista al final de un camino de terracería. La entrada es muy atractiva y el personal de recepción amable. El servicio del hotel en sus áreas de alimentos y bebidas es muy precario ya que solo cuenta con una persona que brinda el servicio de barra y mesas para cuantos comensales tenga el área. Las porciones de comida son muy pequeñas y si se solicita otro platillo el personal se vuelve un tanto menos amable con gestos de disgusto. Las habitaciones les falta agua caliente, en solo un día gozamos de buena temperatura y el resto fue agua tibia, las llaves del agua en lavamanos tenían fuga y se filtraba hasta el piso. El WC estaba parcialmente desprendido arriesgando al huésped a sentarse y sentir que se movía. Durante toda la estancia el elevador no servía, obligando al huésped a subir y bajar por escaleras. El hotel contaba con mesa de billar, la cual estaba en terribles condiciones, chueca y rasgada, y tacos de golpeo chuecos. La imagen del hotel aunque no es la mejor no es mala, sin embargo el funcionamiento es bastante precario. Los accesos a la playa en ambos lados con escalones no uniformes y desnivelados sin un paso cómodo a la playa.

I stayed at Senses Riviera Maya for what was supposed to be my birthday trip. Unfortunately, the experience was unacceptable and forced me to leave in the middle of my stay for another resort. The problems included: Mold on the walls and overall poor cleanliness. Ongoing noisy renovations. No hot water for multiple days. Extremed limited food options compared to what was advertised. Discolored faucet water that felt unsafe to use. Instead of enjoying a milestone celebration, I was left frustrated, embarrassed, and disappointed. This resort did not provide the comfort, safety, or quality advertised. I would not recommend staying here.
