The property was run down, the food at all the restaurants was very bland and much of it was inedible. One meal everyone’s plate came out cold and soggy. The drinks were terrible, they all were watered down and none of them even tasted like what you ordered and some when asked what ingredients were added, they were completely wrong. There weren’t really any activists to do each day, at the property and the ones that were provided were pretty boarding. The rooms were kind of run down and items were broken or starting to break. I don’t think the cost of the property is up to par with what I paid. I would tell anyone that was thinking of staying her that it isn’t worth the cost.

Other than the beautiful natural surrounding, everything else was just an inconvenience, most staff was not very friendly or helpful. Food was OK at best, bar drinks were horrible. The adult only area lacked amenities.

The spa was great, so was the greenery around the property. The food ZERO stars, and staff was not very accommodating, several instances where we were upset after interactions with staff. Forget trying to book a restaurant, the app doesn't work. The drinks also not good, if you are ok with bottom tier liquor, and flat beer. The TVs in some of the rooms were so old, it seemed like we were watching a vintage game. Look elsewhere!

We loved all the animals on site!! However my husband and myself got quite sick the first couple days, we assume it was the food. This did happen also the last time we came here. I dont think we will return because of it!! We also booked this hotel for the watersides but quickly found out that our 8 year old who is 4.5 feet tall couldnt go on the big ones...so that was disappointing as well!!! The pools are also quite warm and provide no relief from the hot sun. The cenote was amazing!! Probably our favorite part ! Overall i would give this hotel a 4/10 rating

The property was in the jungle and was beautiful! The adult pool was really nice but the water was warm. The other pools were mediocre. Lots of dining options but food and drinks were just “o’k”. We went there for the wildlife and we’re not disappointed. We saw monkeys almost everyday! That was awesome! Employees were all very nice. Front desk is small and it took 1 1/2 hours to check in!
