A solid 4.5 stars!
Patch P. and I had a great experience here and most, if not all, of the staff were accommodating and enthusiastic with their service for the guests here.
It was our first time out of the country and I was full of anxiety, but it was quickly calmed by the friendly staff that you get to see on a day to day basis.
We chose the master suite, which was newly renovated and very spacious for two people. They were kind to put us on the fifth floor with a balcony to a grand view of the Atlantic Ocean that we took advantage of watching the sunrise almost daily!
Breakfast was at the Bella Vista Restaurant inside the hotel, just opposite to the lobby reception desk. It was all you can eat and drink. We fell in love with their chiliquiles with 2 over easy eggs and definitely had that every day for breakfast, along with tater tots, sausage links, bacon, bread roll, and slices of ham and cheese. They also had a fruit bar and a yogurt bar for those that want lighter breakfast options. Coffee, Orange Juice and water were also available as beverages.
Lunch was at the Deck Restaurant and served with all you can drink beverages along with an appetizer and entrée. The staff always makes sure your drink is full!
Dinner was also at the Deck Restaurant, but the only difference is that you can fill up at their self serve station while you wait for your a la carte entrée to be cooked and served to you. They had a variety of seafood items as appetizers, fruits, salad, rice, pasta, soup, and a mini bites dessert bar.
If you miss one of the meal service times like we did, make sure you have some snacks on hand and head to one of the bars in the lobby or by the pool to hang out until before they open the Deck Restaurant.
Another tip is they do not have room service for meals available after midnight! So fill up or have snacks on hand!
We also visited their convenient store for t-shirt souvenirs, tanks, water, Gatorade on the last two days as we could not decide on anything at La Isla Mall or Cancun Mart.
We would like to thank: Eddy, Victor, Faustino, Tony, Eduardo, Arturo for giving us extraordinary service at both Bellavista and Deck Restaurant. Yuliana front desk receptionist. Edgar, our Lobby bartender and Valerie our Pool bartender. Jimmy, hotel doorman, and Angelina and Vincent for towel service. Can't forget our fantastic chefs and cleaning service crew.
The weather was hot, humid, and sticky, which reminded me of summer weather in Vegas, but add an incredible amount of humidity. We were so fortunate to have come before hurricane season!
The only hiccups in the trip were that the towels smelled kind of funky, the room had an odd smell, but we got used to it after awhile, and also for being stuck in a very tiny, cramped elevator for 5-10 minutes before help came to pry open the doors, which caused me to hyperventilate. Even though that wasn't so fun, I'd still recommend staying at Hotel NYX.
We are blessed beyond measures and still can't believe we were able to experience such beautiful scenery and get some R&R at the same time. Definitely a great find, and be sure to opt for the all-inclusive package so you only have to wear a wristband and not worry about currency exchange! They also had parasailing and see-doo rentals right in front of the hotel, so you don't have to go far!
