Amazing resort love that the beach was literally a walk from your room!
The only thing I didn’t like was that we did have to pay for the WiFi and the connection for it wasn’t great.

All inclusive doesn’t include wifi, parking, wouldn’t help with luggage. Misleading information regarding access to Xcaret parks.

On check in the manager charged us extra to what had been quoted in our confirmation causing a lot of stress. The bedroom was dirty and also the balcony. The water was barely warm to have a shower in and the water in the sink was yellow which didn't make you want to clean your teeth! The safe was closed I asked several times for someone to open it but this never happened. There wasn't a room to hold your luggage. The swimming pools had algae from the trees, like a film. The food was barely warm plus the coffee. My family had a lot of mosquito bites due to the green foliage and stagnant water surrounding the hotel in some areas.

Facilities, the beach , the nature you are surrounded by.
I can't believe there are still hotels that charge for Internet access. Specially since its "All inclusive". 7 USD per hour??? Should be a service like hot water or electricity. What century is this? Food was ok. Nothing special.
