Customer service not good
Phillipa H on May 31, 2025
Service non existent, no hot water, food ok. Good Buffett. The resort is very financially motivated. Don’t want to know you unless you buy RE. Phoned guest services multiple times no answer, very noisy at ...night. Caught ‘security’ taking photos in our room. Had to pay extra as our room was ‘upgraded’ and the one we booked was then no longer available. Room ok but not what we booked. Beach very smelly and covered in sargassum but they are trying to clear and it is the season. Did not expect the sewage smell that comes with it. Activities are good, but no help or understanding for ASD. Rude RE pushers. Animals are all around, and petting zoo for children. Runs for 30 minutes where you feed 3 animals. Overall bad experience because of some staff and security caught taking photos taken in room..
The aqua park in the hotel!
Diego G on May 31, 2025
The Aqua Park at Sandos Caracol Eco Resort in Playa del Carmen is a fun place for families. It has lots of water slides for kids and adults, with new areas made just for older kids and grown-ups. The park ...is surrounded by jungle, which makes it feel like an adventure. Everything is clean, and there are lifeguards and staff to help out. Some guests mentioned that the water pressure on a few slides is low, so younger kids might get stuck. There are also height rules for some slides, so not every child can go on all of them. Alcohol isn’t allowed in the waterpark, which keeps it family-friendly. The workers are friendly and helpful. Staff members like Nestor and Pedro have been praised for their kindness and good service. If you need anything, they’re there to help. Overall, the waterpark is a great part of staying at Sandos Caracol. It offers fun, safe water play for the whole family in a beautiful setting.
