5.7 Fair
Pros:I liked that the hotel is immersed in the jungle and some wild life can be seen roaming the grounds (monkeys, Coatis, cats and birds).
Cons:The food is average to bad. The deserts are the worst. Great variety of nothing to write home about.
A
10.0 Wonderful
Pros:Kids had the best time ever! This resort had so much to keep the kids entertained while I got to relax and enjoy. Everything was completely stress free! Shows were entertaining for both kids and adults. Excellent food and friendly staff.
Cons:Room wasn't always stocked properly.
A
6.8 Okay
Pros:I liked our room. They actually gave as an upgraded room. From a deluxe to a junior suite.
Cons:I did not like the staff. They all seemed overworked and all over the place. They did not know how to communicate. In English... terrible and in Spanish as well. That was definitely disappointing.

8.5 Very Good
Pros:This is definitely a place families can go with their kids. There are lots of animals and outdoor activities. I would recommend bringing your own shampoo and conditioner. the beds were okay, could have been better, but outside of those things the resort offered great food, lots to do, and gorgeous scenery. The beach, unfortunately, is way too rocky to swim in, but you can still get in. Temperature was perfect!
Cons:This only thing I didn't like about the resort is that the room smelled of mold the entire time and the shampoo (no conditioner) was not good for us at all. The beach, unfortunately, is way too rocky.
A
2.0 Poor
Pros:Room With Out BedBugs
Cons:BedBugs Attacking Me & Front Desk Not Willing To Help Me, They Just Asume I Am Making It Up.
