Résumé des avis

The excellence and variety of the food, particularly in the à la carte restaurants, are highly praised. The quality of service and the friendliness of the staff are frequently highlighted. The beauty and overall cleanliness of the hotel, as well as the quality of the swimming pools, contribute to a positive and family-friendly experience. However, issues are sometimes reported regarding the organization of the dining experience, with limited buffets or long wait times. Furthermore, the beach can occasionally be disappointing due to rocks or seaweed, making it less suitable for swimming.

Perhaps we should do it again, but in a better location.
à peut-être refaire, mais avec meilleur emplacement

Our room was very far from the plaza and there was a smell of sewage (like feces) outside every day. We were very disappointed with the hotel's service when trying to change rooms, and they made no effort to put us in the same villa. There were six of us, and our goal was to be together. I don't know if the very poor location is their fault or the fault of the discount travel agency. As for the resort itself, it's really beautiful with lots of mature trees. The other staff members, who weren't at reception, were very friendly.

L'emplacement de notre chambre était très éloigné de la plaza et aussi avec une odeur à l'extérieur de Sour (caca) à tous les jours.
Très déçu du service à l'hotel pour essayer de changer de chambre et aussi aucun effort de leur part pour nous mettre dans la même villa. Nous étions 6 et notre but était d'être ensemble. Je ne sais pas si c'est envers eux où envers voyage à rabais pour l'emplacement très médiocre. Pour ce qui est du complexe, il est vraiment beau avec beaucoup d'arbres mature. Le reste du personnel qui n'est pas à la réception était très très aimable.

Wonderful family vacation
Belles vacances en famille

We were there with our two teenagers, aged 13 and 16. We loved the place, in the heart of the jungle. The staff is friendly, courteous, and very helpful. Several restaurants, all delicious. No wait time between 5:30 and 6:30 pm. The pools are clean and the water is perfect. As for the sea, it's not just rocks, it's really rocky... several people ended up with sea thorn needles in their feet. Access is difficult for the elderly. I should have brought my water shoes. Then, in the evening, it's quiet. No big shows... we were in our room around 9:00 pm. For this trip, it was perfect. If you want to party, this isn't the right resort. There are many security cameras, and you feel safe. For drinks, on the first evening, my husband brought a strawberry daiquiri for our 16-year-old. Only one. The next day, he was warned... It's mostly young families. Lots of children and teenagers. In one week, there were three weddings. Lots of large groups. We paid three times less for a taxi to Playa del Carmen with InDrive: 130 pesos. We went to Cozumel, which is very accessible from this resort. We are very satisfied.

Nous y étions avec nos 2 ados âgées de 13 et 16 ans. Nous avons adoré l'endroit, au coeur de la jungle. Le personnel est souriant, courtois et très serviable. Plusieurs restaurants, et tous délicieux. Pas de temps d'attente entre 17h30 et 18h30. Les piscines sont propres et l'eau est parfaite.

Pour la mer, c'est pas juste des roches, c'est vraiment une rocail...plusieurs personnes se sont retrouvées avec des aiguilles d'orsin dans les pieds. L'accès est difficile pour les personnes âgées. J'aurais du amené mes souliers d'eau.

Puis, le soir c'est tranquil. Pas de gros shows... nous étions à la chambre vers 21h00. Pour ce voyage c'était parfait ainsi. Si vous souhaitez faire le party, ce n'est pas le bon resort.

Il y a beaucoup de caméras et on se sent en sécurité.

Pour la boisson, le 1er soir, mon mari a amené un daiquari aux fraises à notre ado de 16 ans. 1 seul. Le lendemain, il s'est fait avertir.....

On retrouve majoritairement des jeunes familles. Beaucoup d'enfants et d'ados. En 1 semaine, il y a eu 3 mariages. Beaucoup de grand groupe.

On a payé 3x moins cher pour se rendre en taxi à playa del carmen avec Indrive. 130 pesos. Nous sommes allés a Cozumel, qui se dait très bien à partir de ce resort.

Nous sommes très satisfaits.

The beds are inadequate; a double bed for two adults is unacceptable for a 5-star hotel. Queen or king beds are the standard.

Les lits sont inadéquats, lit double pour coucher deux adultes est inacceptable pour un 5 étoiles. Queen ou King sont la norme.
