Résumé des avis

The staff is highly praised for their kindness, warm welcome, and attentive service. The cleanliness of the property, the rooms, and the grounds is consistently highlighted, contributing to a beautiful and well-maintained setting. The rooms are also considered spotless and comfortable. Furthermore, the quality and variety of the food, both at the buffet and in the à la carte restaurants, are frequently commended by guests. Occasionally, the availability of palapas and lounge chairs at the beach or pool is noted. Seaweed on the beach is also reported on occasion, despite the hotel's efforts to prevent it.

Visit from February 10th to 18th
Visite du 10 au 18 Février

We are regulars at this hotel, having vacationed here every year since 2011, and will continue to do so until 2026. We didn't travel in 2021 and 2022 due to the pandemic. I must say that the resort is still as clean as ever, and the staff we've known for years are still as friendly and welcoming as ever. However, we have noticed a decrease in the smiles of new employees, which has diminished considerably over the years. There's also a laxity regarding the dress code in the à la carte restaurants. The food is still good, but more repetitive than before. The reception staff were very cold despite the number of consecutive visits. We are considering a return visit next year.

Nous sommes des habitué de cette hôtel pour y avoir pris nos vacances depuis 2011 et ce à chaque année jusqu’à 2026. Nous n’avons pas voyagé en 2021et 2022 du a la pandémie. Je dois dire que Le site est toujours aussi propre et et le personnel que nous connaissons depuis les années sont toujours aussi sympathique et avenant avec nous. Nous avons observer tout de même une diminution des sourires auprès des nouveau employés qui a beaucoup diminué au cours des années. Il y a aussi un laisser aller au niveau du code vestimentaire dans les resto a la carte. La nourriture est toujours bonne mais plus redondante qu’auparavant. L’accueil a la réception était très froide malgré le nombre de visite consécutive. Nous sommes en réflexion sur une nouvelle visite pour l’an prochain.

A stay that started badly and ended badly, but was acceptable in between.
Un séjour qui a mal commencé et mal fini mais correct entre les 2

We arrived on December 13, 2025, and the welcome was very rushed, brief, and unprofessional. There was no welcome cocktail, and we were rushed to leave the reception area as quickly as possible. As a result, we didn't receive our Premium Wi-Fi or Silver wristband. The first evening, we ate at El Olivo. At 7:00 PM, I had the welcome cocktail and one glass of wine. We then went to the lobby bar and had one glass of Johnny Walker. Hardly enough to get drunk. We left the lobby bar around 9:30 PM to go to the all-white party on the beach. Once we got to the beach, I have a total blackout. I don't remember anything. The only possible explanation is that someone put something in my drink at the lobby bar. The next day I went to get the glasses myself from the lobby bar, only to find that the bartender was leaving them lying around on the counter and disappearing for several minutes while other customers were at the bar, making them easily accessible to anyone who wanted to put something in the glasses. This is unacceptable behavior for a responsible hotel. Furthermore, on the last day, I got food poisoning from shrimp at Takara. However, everything was fine between those two days.

Nous sommes arrivés le 13 décembre 2025 et disons que l’accueil a été très expéditif, bref et non professionnel, pas de cocktail de bienvenue et on nous pressait de quitter l’accueil le plus vite possible. Nous n’avons donc pas obtenu notre Wifi Premium ni notre bracelet Silver. La première soirée nous avons mangé au El Olivo, à 19 heures j’ai pris le cocktail de bienvenue et 1 seul verre de vin. Nous nous sommes dirigés au lobby bar et pris 1 seul verre de Johnny Walker. Pas de quoi devenir ivre. Nous avons quitté le lobby bar vers 21h30 pour se rendre au party en blanc sur la plage. Rendu à la plage un blackout total. Je ne me souviens plus de rien. La seule réponse possible c’est que quelqu’un a mis quelque chose dans mon verre au lobby bar. Le lendemain je suis allé chercher moi-même les verres au lobby bar pour m’apercevoir que le barman laisse les verres trainés sur le comptoir et s’absente plusieurs minutes alors qu’il y a d’autres clients au comptoir donc facilement accessible à n’importe qui qui veut mettre quelque chose dans les verres. C’est inadmissible cette façon de faire pour un hôtel responsable. De plus la dernière journée j’ai eu une intoxication alimentaire avec des crevettes au Takara. Entre les 2 jours tout sait bien passé par contre.

A true 5*
Un vrai 5*

The only improvement needed is the comfort of the bed and pillows, but nothing major. The staff is very attentive, and the food at the buffets and restaurants is excellent. The location is magnificent. It's our favorite hotel! 😍

Seule amélioration à apporter est le confort du lit et des oreillers mais rien de majeur. Le personnel est très attentif, la nourriture aux buffets et restaurants excellent. Le site est magnifique. C'est notre hôtel coup de cœur 😍
