Me and my family had a fantastic trip thanks to the hospitality of all the staff. Our room was excellent and the property was well serviced and very clean. No request was denied. Unlike some other reviews I found the restaurant prices very reasonable considering the quality and level of service. The evening live music was a big hit with fantastic performances. It is an older hotel and in 5 years or less will require a remodel but at it’s current status it still ranks among the best and certainly the best I have been at in Cancun. Of concern is the beach erosion hopefully as the currents change the beach will be filed back in ( this is not a kimpinski issue this applies to all the hotels on the strip.

The view from our room 4010 is mostly of other balconies and those balconies see right in to the room. It’s great from the door and the desk, no good from the bed and leisure chair. I would not pay for a sea front room for this view. When I’m in a tropical vacation, I like to see the sea when I wake up in the morning - right from the bed! I like to lay in the bed and not been seen by other balconies.

A bit expensive for the quality of product provided! The rooms are nice and all face the ocean. Don’t bother pay for ocean view unless u really wanna see the ocean from every part of ur room. The breakfast was okay. I would not pay money for it. Staff are professional but the front desk was super pushy for upgrade and tried to make it extra difficult to accommodate my party of 3. Overall it wasn’t a bad stay but mothing to right home about! The pools are kinda small and so is the hot tub. The kids club is a joke and is not appropriately staffed.
