A week in Mexico.....

scottsW2465VH on Nov 16, 2024

Well, where do I start... Let’s go with the positives first... The location of the resort is interesting it is basically built in the middle of the jungle lots of local animals and cenotes great walking and biking paths. Beach was rocky but a few feet in either direction and you can find a nice swimming area. Food was good, lots of variety, drinks are the same as any other Mexican resort nothing special!! Rooms were clean and comfortable,staff was wonderful!!!!! Now for the bad!!!! My wife and I have been traveling in this area for almost 30 years and have stayed in many different resorts and we both agree it is time for this to either upgrade or tear down and rebuild.... Everything in the resort is tired and in need of serious repair. There are holes in the thatch roofs of every building when it rains the water just pours in, there are no railing on the steps into your rooms,lights hanging on by zip ties in the pools,many sections on the decking rotted out and the list goes on!!!!!!!! I don’t like to leave poor reviews for anything, we had a nice time but had a hard time overlooking the need for repair and replacement at this resort!!!!! We are appalled by the lack of concern from the owners of this place... There are just too many other nicer places to go to in Mexico to have to see this kind of neglect!!!

To many maintenance issues

598danns on Nov 14, 2024

Save your money, or better yet spend it somewhere else! I'm giving them two stars only because we did find a couple of people who enjoyed their jobs and gave us the Mexican service experience that we have come to expect in our years of travelling there. But they are so poorly run and maintained that it can only trickle down to the staff being overwhelmed and becoming frustrated. There are other resorts in this area, for the same money, you will have a better experience with. Restaurants are only accessible by elite members or select few. We finally got into a couple only by complaining at the desk day after day. Pools are dirty and bars are understaffed. So many maintenance issues, the whole resort smells of sewer. There is potential here, the area is beautiful, but until they can get the running of the place under control, go somewhere where you can actually relax and enjoy!
