Very beautiful hotel, unfortunately very isolated. Without the bus or taxi is not in the next town. Staff and facilities really good, entertainment kept within limits. The wonderful pool your peace. The staff are typically mexican very friendly. Extras such as internet are outrageously expensive (10 $/ h). Breakfast, lunch and in the evenings always good fresh food. Snackbars ok. Beach is also great, but it was a little windy, when we were there. Recommendation. read more

For us it was more a four-star hotel. The furnishings the room was not a five star hotels. The bath was not in a good condition, mold on the walls. On the towels in the bathroom and at the beach were always stains. we had a small Gecko PET in the room, but in these countries, we must be prepared. But we had no mosquito in the room. You should definitely spray against mosquito it. The complex is not very large and therefore offering a clear view, which for us just perfect was. The pools, lobby and beach section were ... always clean. Unfortunately at this time almost only Americans in the hotel. With German you can in the entire hotel definitely not communicate. One should speak English already. read more

    The access to the internet is too expensive. If activities is important, you should take a other hotel. the beach and the ocean were dreamlike and very clean. the beach chairs, cushions and towels need urgently be replaced. There are too few beach chairs and especially protection from the sun available.

    The distance to the beach can better not be. Playa del Carmen is located about 40 kilometer away. Taxis are too expensive, we are with the (cheap coach) risks colectivo. They hold fast to the street(you must not be sensitive, very quickly and sometimes overloaded). In Playa one can go strolling very nice, or a cocktail in bar allow. We stayed in Playa with easy-tours excursions to Coba and Tulum booked. We can recommend. In the hotel the excursions are twice as expensive.

The hotel has a manageable size and a beautiful, rather small garden area. It is a older hotel. The staff there are however Trouble on the maintenance.

The all inclusive special offer is very good, you the whole day free cocktails and there are several à la carte-restaurants is. The guest structure in December was a little one-sided. It had especially US citizens, Canadians and French, a few Russians, Italian and Spanish. 2 weeks we have not a single Swiss and only a few German ... see, what we however didn't mind that.

    we had a beachfront room direct at the beach and with wonderful view of the sea. It is one of the best and most expensive room. It has however worth it, since the other rooms seemed to be still older. the room was massive. We had 2 King beds. The shower was very special, because it is open. (inclusive view of the sea) right next to the sink. The toilet is in a separate room.

  • Gastronomy
    6.0

    The hotel has a main restaurant ( buffet), 5 à la carte restaurants, of which 2 are in the same place and thus alternately open, 1 snack bar at the beach and 3 bars. the main restaurant is located directly above the beach. The view of the sea is very nice. The food was not very varied. There was mostly pork or beef, chic and fish and the usual side dishes as salad and vegetables. The quality of the dishes was very good for all inclusive hotel. Only the vegetables was not enough cooked. We didn't spend much time in the main restaurant in the evening eaten, as the mood in the evening not very romantic is. There was mostly much noise (the background and the clearing of the table) and crowd. we're sorry, but it is outside very few tables, so we in the evening only once outside eaten have. Perhaps it is deliberate, as there are so many mosquito in Mexico. lunch is also outside at the snack bar, where it daily free of charge fresh Sushi is. You can also hamburgers, fries, hot dogs or Mexican specialties such as nachos with guacamole order. The staff were everything other than attentive. It seemed, that we or other guests about 10 to 15 minutes there is no Assen and us. it is for the dinner 5 à la carte restaurants. You have to go around 18,30 line up, to get a table. You can choose, if you right now( as long as available) or 08,45 wanted to eat. I recommend however with strong occupancy a cocktail and queue at 18,15, since there are not many tables. Asian restaurant: here we ate. There were 2 different appetizers and 2 different main courses. The food was as in all à la carte restaurants the hotel was very nice prepared and taste of the food are really good. If Chinese or Thai food is expected disappointed. Gourmet restaurant: here we ate twice. On Christmas Eve. The food was really very good and of a high standard. I got a fillet of beef and on Christmas Eve we ate both duck. The service the gourmet restaurant was by far the best. Italian restaurant: here we ate twice. To appetizer there are fresh pizza from the stone furnace and salad. Afterwards one gets spaghetti and a main course. We were happy with the food. It is a pity, that the hotel no Italian CD features, it was not very suitable music. Mexican/Brazilian restaurant: we ate here once Mexican and Brazilian. The food was good, the service both times was OK. You have to know, remember that you are in the à la carte restaurants absolutely 18,30 reserve must, if you want a opportunity to have a place that you would like to eat and only 18,30 or 20,45. It is so, that if all the tables with guests rooms were occupied, it could last a long time, until someone comes, as at best 3 employee present are. Sometimes were the waiters overburdened, especially if we are drinks without ice wanted ☺ the gentlemen must wear long trousers in the gourmet restaurant. I think it is not self-evident, that evening free of charge in a à la carte restaurant food. Which I have ever had. the bars: there is a snack bar, until 10:00 or by in the evening at 17:00 I believe is open. We already mentioned you can also eat from lunch. You wanted for example at 12:00 a drink, you had to stand in line in front of the bar. the other bar is befinder in the lobby. It has only in the evening open. We have the drinks usually not there drunk, but carried forward. there is another bar on the roof of the hotel. We were there however never, since there was only the typical karaoke nights etc. given has, the we didn't really interested have.

    the staff were too many friendly, even without a tip. One must not expect, that they kiss the feet, if you tip, nevertheless it is of course, as life. You should speak English or Spanish, to be understood. the cleaning of the rooms was moderate to good. We were hoping for more from a five star hotel. the front desk took our complaints for strong noise the air conditioning and dirty bed serious.(it had at our arrival Blood on the bed sheets) at the air conditioning something was made, it was however afterwards loud, so that we in the night never had switched on. The bed sheets was only after some days changed. Since we had two beds had, this was not so bad. The hammock was the same day mounted, which we enjoyed. the Internet is not free unfortunately, we especially during the Christmas found to be a pity. I had $10 for 1 hour of Internet pay, so that we could write related a short email. Having regard to about 50 minutes the Internet worked not more. I was on the responsible employees pictured, that I am not satisfied with this service, the hotel had manager personal requests, whether we have a repeated access to the internet received. I think this is ridiculous. He told me I should be in a few hours again, what I had done. I have no idea, with the manager really asked, in any case, I told the concierge with, that we a new Internet card and not get free.

    The animation was very unobtrusive. So low-key, in 13 days that I never imagined had, that at 11:00 the volleyball take place. Oh well ☺ there is a price a tennis court and a football field. the more expensive access to the internet I already mentioned above. there is a small, expensive shop in the hotel lobby. If you want to shop, you should go to Tulum or Playa del Carmen go. In Playa has a Wal-Mart. the pools were daily cleaned and were very clean. At the beach there are 2 showers. of the almost white beach is narrow but long. He was daily cleaned. the sea was mostly very, very clean and turquoise blue. It has unfortunately rocks in the sea, so you should be careful with the 'swimming' or in the sea. The beach is for walks very suitable. we were only twice snorkeling. Once you get in Egypt was, you couldn't see anything new. Once we had however we were lucky and looked to second time a barracuda. ( direct at the beach of the hotel) the beach chairs and sun screens are spread out well. However there are too few sun loungers and sun screens. We had other guests customize and around 7 hours 13 days get up and two chairs reserve.

    the hotel lies directly on the white sandy beach on the Riviera Maya, approximately 1 driving lesson (without guests a/unloading) from the airport Cancun. The next greater city and is about Tulum about 20 to 30 minutes away with the taxi or collectivo. Playa del Carmen is a relatively large touristic city, which is a huge shopping street with various shops, restaurants and bars. With the collectivo (shared taxi) has one about 30 minutes. one of the allowance sights is akumal beach. It is a beautiful, public sandy beach, which known for turtles. Either 100-200 meters swimming out, or you can book a trip inclusive boat and travel guide the turtles at the food of seaweed watching. Since we swimmers are, we chose the first option and we didn't regret it. We saw several rays, two small Squid, various large and small Turtles and even a barracuda. The reef is however unfortunately destroyed...

    our room was very large. We have but also rooms of fellow passengers seen, the somewhat small (but still absolutely sufficient ) were. Room amenities our room included: two Queen beds, a built-in cupboard, a generous chest of drawers, a large mirror, an airco, a fan, a mini bar (free, was also every day with drinks after wish filled -the wishes you should the service say ), a telephone, a safe (which we didn't use it ), a balcony with 2 plastic chairs, a table, two armchair and a TV. The toilet and the bath tub are located in a separate room, separated from the washbasin, which was before it was a kind of connecting rooms with a large mirror is. the rooms are certainly a bit shabby, but charm and due to the extreme cleanliness the age the room not so much.

    Four theme restaurants (asian, Italian, Mexican-Brazilian, gourmet ) and a buffet restaurant offered one wide choice. The buffet was high of high quality, but after three weeks one had simply everything tried several times. Fresh meat and fresh fish there was daily and it was before the eyes of the guests prepared. Very recommendable is the in-house sushi bar. The theme restaurants fluctuate in the quality of the food. We have each twice visited and were only from the gourmet restaurant completely convinced. Hygiene and cleanliness were really reasonable. During our stay found a state control of the hygiene instead. Where we experienced have, this was without complaints. the offered food offer something for everyone, but it repeated everything. Naturally, tips were gladly taken. The general atmosphere is friendly until informal.

You should however at least the English (still better the Spanish ) language, because German was not spoken, what one 15000 kilometer from Germany away also not admit. in the dealing with complaints it is very much to their own tune, the one the staff opposite used. With friendliness we always came to the goal, faithfully to the slogan :' as the forest comes... '.

    constant, but very unobstrusive animation. If you like it, can the whole day over occupied. The salsa dancing on yoga to volleyball and diving ( and much more ) offered the entertainment something for everyone. The evening entertainment is also very interesting ( for example fire show, karaoke, casino, Caribbean show, Mexican night and so on ). The disco located on the roof of the hotel. Until 1 o'clock you can the evening al fresco drink. During our stay but it was only moderately visited, which surely the low occupancy of the hotel was owed. beach and pool were always very well maintained. Loungers and sun screens there was by the pool and at the beach adequate and use was free. Showers are available also available. The hotel beach offers from the coral reef and fine (nearly white ) sandy beach everything.

    To the airport cancun is a little over 100 miles. Tulúm and Playa del Carmen are in about 15 to 20 minutes with the low-priced Collectico (Mexican coach in different forms-from the small bus to the car ) for 2a 3 dollars per person. Playa del Carmen is very touristic shaped, while Tulúm still somewhat Ursrpüngliches has. The nearest Maya ruins are in Tulúm. But you have no expensive tours, but you can on your own explore and the very cheap. People should be excursions under no circumstances book in the hotel. German tour operators beat up to 70% on it, whilst the same trip in a travel agency in Playa del Carmen for much less money. Our recommendation is' easy tours '. The central (I-Tours ) is located in Tulúm and Ausstelle in Playa del Carmen. The beach is located right on the hotel and the famous Schildkrötenstrand of akumal are just a few hundred meters away. Snorkel Equipment should one definitely thereby have! Further Mayan ruins are about 2 driving lessons from akumal in coba, and Chichen Ítza. Worth seeing are the cenotes (with water filled caves ), in which you definitely once swim should. The Ziplines have their attraction and one should try it, as it is, on the treetops or lagoons rapidly on a tightrope to drive.

The hotel has the bad reviews not deserved. A dream-beach-the best we in Mexico seen! Fine sand (also great for children) with a coral reef-beware sea urchins. For snorkelling however, it is at the akumal beach much better. The food was very tasty. There are buffet and several à la carte restaurant. The selection in the à la carte restaurants is limited with around 2 to 3 dishes. No 5 stars but nevertheless delicious with very nice atmosphere. Especially good the mexican restaurant. Rooms are nice, unfortunately was the bathroom somewhat older - rust in the bathtub. We have only ... with bathing shoes in the shower. It didn't bother us. A large double bed with sky (very comfortable and nicely ) was available and a balcony with a view of into nature. Area very nice, lots of palm trees. Cocktail were unfortunately only okay, there was also no straws. Great was the mexican party with live music and fantastic great food. Very hardworking staff. The hotel was rather full, whether it completely sold out was we don't know. On the beach, there was nevertheless always vacant chairs. read more

    Though right next to the sea, but by a broad strip of land, where one golfing could, from the main street separately. It drives every day a gemeinschaftsbus, the a for a few Dollar in all surrounding cities leads. We were in Playa del Carmen and Tulum. But we had a taxi driver, the was more expensive, but it was a sort of touristenguide exactly and showed us a lot. Picked us reliable again from or waited on us. Was to summarize price included in the price. Looked in all hotels taxis are available in front of the gates, to get one is safe not a problem. The gemeinschaftstaxi we used only once, but it was fun. In one direction was Playa del Carmen, there you will find a wonderful sandy beach, a rieseneinkaufsstraße, tattooist, markets, restaurants, gift shops, everything your heart desires. Discos. Also the ferry to cozumel, a small lying off island. Was also an experience, we can really recommend. In cozumel, there is the smallest hardrockcafé the world \u263a Excursions are enough offered, either in the hotel with the travel guide book, but it is everywhere in the cities mentioned in this respect. Tulum was in the other direction, very worth seeing. We were there snorkeling. Was a wonderful day! The airport was about 1 hour away.

Super nice hotel to relax! If you're looking for peace and relaxation away from the mass tourism are looking for, this is just right. The hotel is well maintained and the staff was always helpful. Playa del Carmen it takes about 35 kilometer, with the bus in about 30 minutes, for a total cost about 1.80 €, to reach. To akumal is about four to five kilometer. The beach was cleaned every morning from trash. The pools were cleaned every day. Cocktails and food are virtually around the o'clock. The only drawback is located in the service of the ... dining area. The appointment of a very long time consuming may take or even forgot to bring. Otherwise great hotel for those seeking peace!!! read more

Had two room with a view of the sea and then two rooms in with cockroaches, dirty bathroom (Schlam in front of the former hurricane) and view of the pool. After an immediate complaint at the front desk we were waited until next day and you got a bug spray against cockroaches in the hand. The next day it was called then, of course, that they were fully booked. We realized that the bathroom required cleaned should be. When we then but the water turned down a rust and Gastchsuppe (I ask myself then only as could be cleaned). After ... a week was then in the second room nebenein suddenly an extremely pestialischer odortwo plumbers arrived, but the helped everything nothing. On the third sleepless day and unzäligen complaints with the looking after guests there was another room. You can say, this was not a relaxing vacation, and to boot for Christmas and new year's Eve where you about 1/3 paid much more than otherwise. read more

  • Room
    5.0

    We had 2 rooms with double beds (no additional beds!). Every room had a bathroom. One room had its own kitchen, which we used. Both rooms had a balcony. There was a TV per room, which also received German channels, a minibar, a safe, a telephone and a coffee machine (with filter and powder). The room was cleaned daily. It was already somewhat older but not so that one had to complain, as one could read in our ratings!

  • Gastronomy
    6.0

    The buffet was great! There were various themes, which repeated after a week. There was always fresh fruit (always ripe and delicious), cakes, many salads, meat, fish, rice, noodles, only always variously prepared for the theme of the evening. Even the pizzeria was genial. We were there twice for lunch. Otherwise we always ate in the main restaurant.

    The staff was very friendly. One could talk with all in English. No problem. The rooms were daily cleaned, thoroughly! Our air conditioner was defective, which didn't bother us a lot.

  • Sport & Entertainment

    The entertainers were very nice and funny. There was internet access, a clothing store and a souvenir store. The beach was beautiful, always clean and not too full. The reef, which one could immediately reach, was really beautiful. There was rental snorkel equipment. Shade from the palms and the sunshades. The pool chairs were available. Directly in front of the beach there was a small pool with a shower, which was daily cleaned. The other pool (larger with poolbar) we only used once, since it was farther away from the beach and we were usually on the beach.

Great relaxation after our tour archived

Attractive architecture, the open-arched buildings around the pool are each three floors high. Palms and bamboo have been planted in the courtyard. Lots of young guests from English-speaking North America who bring with them a care-free, civilized and friendly atmosphere. All age groups are represented as well as both singles and families. A hotel in which people of all ages can relax, feel at ease and enjoy their holiday- and all that at an affordable price. We particularly appreciated the relaxed atmosphere after our tour. Transfer to Cancun approx. one hour. read more

    Our rooms on the ground-floor were spacious and always pleasantly cool and shaded. We thought it was great that we didn't have to have the air-conditioning on. All rooms overlook the pool due to the circular structure.

  • Gastronomy
    5.0

    Very good food, with lots of variation- fresh, exotic, spicy and mild- and good wine. You can eat both inside and out and all that with a sea-view (depending on where you are sitting). You'll be carrying a few extra pounds when you get home because of these delicacies.

    Friendly service. We felt as though we were in good hands here. Small boutique for high quality and practical souvenirs.

  • Sport & Entertainment
    5.0

    Big pool with a bar in the middle of the resort and a small pool at the beach leave nothing to be desired. The entertainment was good, witty and lively. Carlos, small and smart, was a star both as dance-teacher and cook as well as presenter. It was a lot of fun and always relaxed. When we were snorkeling we were extremely close to the fish. There were hardly any waves in the swimming area because of the off-shore reef. The waves are slowed down- not for those who like the waves then- but the advantage is that you can swim in the sea as though it was a bath when the weather is stormy.

    Right by a lovely, well-maintained, fine sandy-beach, quiet resort in the middle of a forest, everything just a short walk away, a real advantage in the heat. The hotel is located near to historical Tulum. Group taxis to the tourist sites are reasonably priced. Unfortunately there are no bikes.

Gorgeous hotel, well-laid out, clean resort, 180 rooms distributed amongst several small buildings, very comfortable rooms in the Mexican style- giant bed. Food excellent, always fresh fruit- delicious mangoes; don't recommend the Italian restaurant, hamburgers and snacks for between meals. CAREFUL: don't take a room by the beach, they haven't been renovated yet! Best to be in block E or D. read more

    Fantastic entertainment team! Hi to Charly, Juan Carlos and Ricky Martin! Everyone is very friendly, waiting staff in the restaurants are always nice and cheerful, except for those in the Italian! Bar-keepers are not all good! Raoul makes the best drinks! Room-service is fine! though sometimes they are a little late! Best wishes to Tina, the deputy hotel-manager, she's the person to ask for if you need help, are unhappy, or just need someone to talk to, hehe...

    The beach is fantastic, white and clean, the water crystal-clear and full of colourful fish, the off-shore reef make it ideal for swimming and snorkeling! Nearest town Playa del Carmen only reachable by bus, taxi or group taxi (highly recommended), there's good shopping there! The transfer to the airport takes one hour. An absolute must: spending a day with a dolphin trainer- it costs $180- but is worth every cent. Day trips to Coba and Tulum are better with a group taxi- you'll be ripped off if you do it with an agency!
