We are 4-5 star RIU and Bahai Principe people so this small resort took us by surprise. My husband and I travelled on a last minute special with our 14 year old daughter. The staff, the beach, the proxim...ity to airport and town more than make up for any shortcomings. You’re going to be offered a pretty limited variety of food, but it is good food. I am gluten intolerant and I didn’t struggle at all. The drinks are good and there’s a variety. Fresh water and snacks are readily available until late into the evening. Ask for what you need and if it’s offered,someone will bring it to you. There aren’t a lot of things out in the open but I can only assume it’s for cost savings measure and to make sure there’s limited waste. There’s no night life, however, the beach and pools are open late. And there’s mini golf!! Go to the a La carte and ask for Pedro. He was the highlight of our trip. This man took the time, on a day when he wasn’t even hosting our table, to provide a detailed and thoughtful list of local restaurants. He was so friendly and kind and really made us feel welcome. Do the photo shoot!!! Ashley and his team are incredible. We didn’t know what to expect from a free photo shoot but we ended up buying a package because they turned out so great. The resort is dated. It needs some love. The rooms are not great and the beds are terrible. But it’s clean, the staff is friendly, the food is good and the snorkeling is amazing! I didn’t even know I liked snorkeling until being here. This is not a 5 star in Playa Del Carmen. It’s a tiny hidden gem and you have to squint to see the beauty. Go once and hold your expeditions at a reasonable level and you’ll fall for the area like we did.
Disappointed in this hotel, not worth the rates they are charging at all. This is a very low end hotel with low standard

This hotel is literally like stepping back into 1970. The beds&pillows were hard as concrete, blankets, sheets, towels, showers, furniture, toilets all are very outdated. My balcony had two chairs that wer...e broken so I had to get them to replace the chairs which they did but they are so old and uncomfortable. You have to get a beach towel daily and if you forget to have it back by 7pm the make you wait until moon to get a new towel. Cannot get a tiki hut if you save day of, People place towels the night before and the hotel doesn’t monitor this at all so if you expect any shade you won’t get any. To get food restaurant reservations you literally have to be there before 8am and by 815 it’s taken for the day, which the restaurant where it’s served food is the only one worth eating at, and the buffet food is not all inclusive standards. The hotel will not give you any refund even if you are really uncomfortable in the provided room. Everyday the coffee bar was out of clean cups and coffee and there were always bugs in the creamer cups. The beach is nice and the snorkeling is good here however I’d walk down to Westin and farther to get better snorkeling. The staff were really into cleaning the outside but they surely didn’t seem to care about how the room ceiling panels have black mold growing on them and then they just paint over the mold. I never used the pools because they let in the cruise ship people with day passes and those visitors overtake the outdoor area. I did enjoy the water and sunshine and beach. Most of my trip I left the property to enjoy at other more beautiful and pristine places on the island. One more thing the Taxi drivers are like the cartel. They over charge you, drop you off far from your destination and want to fight with you over prices which are posted at the hotels help desk. Just be really firm with the drivers. I’d rent a moped if you can be a safe driver! That’s what I did and it made my trip really great!
