amazing experience

Hotel was lovely but the staff make it an unbelievable experience. Everyone is so kind, friendly and HAPPY. It's infectious! Brilliant vibe. There are so many things to see and do there is no need to leave the grounds of the resort. Yoga, shows, sports bar, snorkeling, disco, bicycles (all inclusive no addition charge). I would highly recommended this resort. I have traveled most of Europe, the Caribbean and America but I can honestly say this was our best holiday. Resort will appeal to families as there are lots of entertainment venues for the kids. But will also appeal to couples, I visited with my husband and male& female friends. The entertainment team are fantastic, especially Daniel who kept the boys entertained with plenty sports and activities while us girls sunbathed! Cannot recommend it highly enough!

Massenabfertigung! Keine 4 Sterne, vor allem beim Essen! Fürchterliche Organisation und Bedienung. Nie wieder!

Sehr schöne Anlage. Mit Tieren und viel Natur!

Sehr schöne Anlage. Mit Tieren und viel Natur! Wir waren dort eine Woche und es hat uns sehr gefallen. Das Essen war in Ordnung. Allerdings Auswahl von Obst war gering. Mango habe ich nie gesehen. Auch keine frischgepresste Säfte zum Frühstück. Ansonsten gabs für jeden etwas. Das Meer ist nicht so schön aber auf linke Seite des Strandes haben wir uns ein Stück Meer gefunden. Für eine Woche ist sehr angenehm.

Heerlijk hotel met goede faciliteiten

Het hotel ligt in de jungle wat fantastisch is: veel groen, mooie cenotes, veel dieren (apen, neusberen, wasberen, schildpadden enzv). Het strand ziet er mooi uit: wit, ruim voldoende ligbedden, palmbomen en een mooie turquoise zee. Wel veel rotsen wat niet fijn is. Neem waterschoenen mee! De shows s'avonds zijn zeer professioneel en vooral de a la carte restaurants zijn van zeer hoge kwaliteit (vooral de steak and fish club!). Voor kinderen is er zeer veel te doen: leuk aquapark en kids club! Allemaal heel professioneel en verzorgd!

Belles vacances

Superbe resort, avec une prestation de très bon niveau, qualité et diversité de la nourriture et du all inclusive, grand resort mais jamais eu l'impression de faire la queue ou de devoir courir pour un transat ou une place au restaurant. Belle plage et bons équipements sportifs, beaucoup de choses pour les familles et les enfants. Si la plage est belle des rochers dans l'eau, et si vous êtes en couple sans enfants alors pour être tranquilles il faut prendre l'option select club pour adulte. Belle chambre mais petits balcons.
