Very disappointing! Avoid.
Booked this as the final night of our honeymoon trip to Mexico, based on many of the reviews and images. In short, I wish we hadn’t.
Despite communicating with the hotel in the days before about our booking confirmation and arrival time, upon arrival they had no idea who we were and it took a long time to get it all sorted. Not very apologetic.
We were shown into the fragrance room to select a miniature eau de toilette. Nice idea, but after testing and deciding what we liked they then said they didn’t have it available. I don’t think the fragrances are particularly unique or special. The fragrance oils also smelled rancid and need to be changed.
The room was aesthetic, the bed incredibly high up. I did find a hair ball in the bathroom so cleaning wasn’t great and there were some strange smells (probably why they place reed diffusers everywhere to disguise it). I was disappointed that we didn’t have any kind of note or well wishing for our honeymoon after all of that.
Looking for guidance on dinner options in the area, we sought out staff.. it’s very strange as there seem to be workers in the kitchens but nowhere else and they seem reluctant to speak to you. It’s so unwelcoming!!
I hoped to hear about some of their great food, but they recommended we go to Toj in the town. We had a welcome drink based on their rum blends (not good - stick to the mezcal).
Pool was dirty and all poolside poorly maintained - beds mould and tables not wiped clean. Those are really basic that I would expect.
Strangely, one staff member lit a bonfire at night so all the smoke was drifting towards our bedroom (single glazed and not firmly closing doors) making our room smell awful.
Despite this, slept well and went to breakfast around 830. Nobody there to explain anything so just started helping ourselves to the buffet, which was fine. But again, service issues, the staff need to be present, welcoming and offering their services for the cooked dishes etc.
A series of blunders basically. Everything felt so flat and I wish we hadn’t bothered making an effort to come here. Especially at 8000 MXN/ £330.
