We enjoyed the food options, my wife thought the entertainment was not up to par. They beach bar was too small the the number of guests.Yes we would probably consider this resort as an option. This is a newer property and they were making improvements. The beach area was nice and the life gaurds were very attentive for your safty. Staff was also attentive.

The grounds at this hotel really make it feel like you’re in paradise. The staff is very friendly and the cleanliness is top notch. You constantly see staff cleaning 24-7. The food is also good although I have had better at other hotels. I will say though, I’ve been to Cancun about 7-8 times and we keep on coming back to this one because it’s very much what we’re looking for.
