try to have at least five full days there i only had four and i want to still be there!!!! we had 6 people stay (four rooms) and every one of us enjoyed this stay thoroughly. even at airport customs efficient etc clean --the all inclusive plan really makes all the difference- from 7 am til 10:30pm you can always find something to eat drink etc what a luxury for a vacation. the hotel was immaculate, cleaning all the time. also it is a compact hotel and just a few steps to beach. request a room with a pool view, also with bath, and shower as both are great -our view was like a postcard, pool view, beach, mayan ruin view, the weather was perfect but i know you may not have such luck. the water, turquoise the most beautiful i have seen! huts on the beach, unusual lounge chairs right under huts, plenty of lounge charis at pool. two barstropical drinks .. definitely make reservations for sit down restaurant at night, no shorts they will not let you in and go early enough to still see the water, spectacular and great quality food. shrimp rissotto, beef great soup specials. plenty of food at buffet for breakfast, lunch, great great place we are talking about next year already and my parents have been all over the place!! mall rights across the street upscale, nice, there is a dolphin show there at about 7pm $13 to get in but if you just sit across from it up top you can see most of it for free!! it is only about 20 minutes long i only left the hotel to go across to get gifts thats it, i wouldnt have even left at all!! it was so relaxing so beautiful -- watch out the waves two days were huge and a young guy dislocated his shoulder when the wave crashed on him!!
ok few things to work on - hallways noisy kids echo (maybe bring earplugs if yo uwant to sleep past 8am - desserts could have been a little more variety but fine-- non motorized watersports are not right there -- about 10 mintues away -- i cant even think of anything else - it was really great -- oh tv just had abc espn two hbo but ya know that was fine too i have never spent less time in a hotel room and the room was gorgeious, its just that nothing beat that outside !!!
we highly recommed this hotel, adult pool too just great -- i miss it terribly!!!!
