    They lied to us to get us to sit in a time share sales meeting by saying it was a welcome breakfast where we would learn about the resorts different events for the week.

    Resort was nice. It seemed like it was more for locals though as there was less security than other resorts, we still felt safe while we were there though

    Way better than the reviews

    The only true negative about the hotel was the air conditioning in our vaulted ceiling room 8030. It was 72 to 75 degrees or so all the time. It never cooled down below 72 degrees even at night. This led to some warm sleeping. It was workable, but not great. Everything else about the room was indeed dated but just fine. View from the room was terrific. We would still give the room rating an 8 overall.

    The food was quite good in both the buffets and the specialty restaurants. We did not like everything on the buffet everyday, but there was always plenty to satisfy my family. From 7am to 10pm there was always at least three options for food (including the snack bar). The snack bar could provide a meal in itself basically 24 hours a day. Drinks were very good. Would give the food/drink a 9.5 rating. The beach is simply terrific and absolutely a 10 rating. Entertainment provided every evening was pretty good quality, not amazing but filled the evenings quite well. Entertainment rating is a 8. Staff was friendly and helpful every time period. Staff rating is a 10. Location / setting of the hotel is near perfect. Very well kept grounds and beautiful. Hotel is walking distance to many activities. We walked to the Mayan Museum / Ruins 45 minutes south, La Isla Mall complex 20 minutes north, the mall across the street several times, and up / down the beach multiple times. Location / setting rating is a 10. Couple other thoughts... Safety seemed effortless so was never concerned. Attendants at the front entrance watch those coming and going well. Wife and daughter when alone never felt unsafe entire week. Also, this place had some of the best sunrises I have ever seen.

    I think the food could be better, especially the Mexican restaurant. They need to work more with the customer service of the restaurants. The Bar staff was nice and happy. Unfortunately, the service at the restaurants was not good, not every single employee, but mostly the waiters. The restaurant with the most unpleasant service was the Italian restaurant.

    We loved the facility, the beach, the amenities, the room, the beds. They have chairs at the beach which is an A+, The ocean is beautiful, Nice pools, and the views from the hotel to the beach are amazing. Tons of activities Yoga, Zuma, aquatics.

    Would like for reservation restaurants to be more available when they are empty. I also think the seafood restaurant could dim the lighting and slow down the service a bit.

    I am alway greeted and sent off by the best doormen at Tucancun. They truly make me feel welcome. This hotel has good location and consistently great staff. I do think the upgrades were definitely met with my expectations this trip. Great job. Nerd alert, I love the book nook and I have to say the coffee stations are excellent.

    Theres no kettle (i love to drink tea, but have to go downstairs to get it when i need). When we arrived, the beds looked unchanged (but we were so tired after 12h flight so we didn't have power to ask them change the beds). They changed the linen the next day. Food variety: most of the time food choices are repeated, however bearable. No slippers in the room.

    Rooms are spacious, had a big balcony, there's a hairdryer, fridge with mini bar. There's a coffee machine for the filter coffee(they give 1 sachet per day). Breakfast is the best meal of the day! It was my favourite: lots of fresh juices choices, cold cuts, cheeses, fruits were also so sweet and fresh and tasty! Thank you for a great breakfast!!!

    GREAT OCEAN VIEWS, GREAT LOCATION, GOOD PRICE. CONDO SALES HERE ARE RUDE.
    • Leisure trip

    Off and on Wifi. The pools are NOT HEATED. As always, very occasional rudeness of the staff, mostly time share sharks at the hotel who accost you and shake you down with their questions to hook you. I made it clear that I was not interested in a time share condo from the beginning, but I still had several unpleasant encounters, one in which a rude condo salesman tried to involve my wife, which royally P.O'd me. I made my displeasure known to this jerk who was hard selling her, and fortunately for him, he left. I can't stand disrespect, especially to my wife and family. I suggest smiling & ignoring. Like most Cancun hotels, they have their restaurant reservation system rigged so you have to make the reservation in the "buy a condo" area of the hotel. If you want to reserve Mexico Lindo, it's easy. But if you want the seafood restaurant (please note that the gourmet seafood restaurant doubles as "Charaboya" during the day which is the "near the beach" restaurant. At night they convert it to a semi-classy seafood restaurant. This rigged deal is a ripoff to the guests because you have to show up at 7 AM TO RESERVE and then wait in line to make the reservation, only to be told that you cannot eat that evening until 8:30 or 9:00 P.M. even though the restaurant opens at 6 PM. As usual, I fought like a demon to get in early, and I did succeed, and the food was good. But I doubt that the average traveler would like to endure that hassle for the seafood. Your choice. The female manager from Charaboya was very kind to my wife and myself, but we did hear her speak strongly and disrespectfully to a couple who had the audacity to show up earlier than their 8:30 PM reservation allowed. The worst food was at the Italian restaurant. I could have killed an elephant with the hard pizza they served there. A shame because the atmosphere was superb, the Italian music, and the decor are all excellent, but the food was not good.

    The beach view was stunning, and the view from our room was amazing. This was the biggest plus of this property. Pool locations were excellent. Pool area restaurant had indoor and outdoor dining options with incredibly lovely views. Also, the overall location was excellent. Near everything. Bus stops everywhere. Easy access to high-end stores, La Isla, and downtown Mercado 28. Very safe in my opinion. Guards watching over you makes you feel secure. This is important anywhere you go. The food at the main restaurant "El Mirador" was good to excellent. Great waitress there who really helped was named DALIDA PEREZ. Sea views were always great from there, as well as great servers.. The downstairs Charaboya is also good and closer to the sea and they had excellent Ceviche every day. The specialty restaurants Mexico Lindo was very good and the Italian was OK except the pizza. Mexico Lindo had the best mole I have ever eaten. I was not impressed by their fajitas, but the service was the best. The hotel desk did not answer my phone calls from the hotel room phone to get a morning wake-up call. This is inexcusable. Other than that, the staff was almost always smiley, eager to please and friendly. The one-hour evening shows were great. They have a theatre inside the hotel and from 9-10 PM every night they have a nice one hour show. This was a real plus. We enjoyed the trapeze and circus, Michael Jackson, Pseudo opera singing, and Mexican Folklore dancing. The evening beach security and overall security was perfect. Soooo important. Gotta have that.

    Room was really noisy because of the old AC and also external noise from the machines that are on the ground. When we arrived, a sales consultant insisted that we should do the breakfast presentation. After we tried to say no for a few times, we accepted just to end the harassment and considering we would earn some discounts and gifts. The hotel should change the approach and try not to annoy guests who just arrived.

    The all inclusive works well and the pool area is really good.
