The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Perfect Relaxation Experience

I absolutely loved my experience at the spa! It was a gorgeous building, and the services provided were excellent. I highly recommend trying the Temazcal; it was my all-time favorite spa experience! The staff were incredibly kind and made sure we felt comfortable throughout the ritual. The peaceful atmosphere truly enhanced my relaxation. From steam rooms to heated pools, everything was included in the all-inclusive package, making it a fantastic value!

Delicious Culinary Delights

Dining at the resort was a highlight for me. The food was simply amazing! Each meal was freshly prepared and full of flavor. I particularly enjoyed the sushi rolls and ceviche from the Ceviche bar. Breakfast at Aquamarina was just as fantastic, with options that delighted my taste buds every day. I also loved that there was no buffet; everything was ordered a la carte, making each dining experience special and unique. The attentive service only added to the overall enjoyment of our meals.

Luxurious Room Amenities

Our junior patio suite was spacious, clean, and beautifully designed. The walk-in closet and the dual showers in the bathroom were impressive, and having direct access to the patio added to the beauty of the experience. I loved the outdoor tub, which could be filled upon request. The mini-bar was stocked daily, which made it feel extra special. It felt like a true luxury retreat, with everything we needed to make our stay incredibly comfortable and nice.

Comfort Beyond Compare

Our bedroom was simply divine! The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring we enjoyed restful sleep every night. I particularly liked waking up to views of the surrounding jungle from our patio. The design of the room provided a blend of comfort and luxury that truly enhanced our stay. The low-key ambiance made it easy to disconnect and relax, allowing us to fully enjoy our vacation.

I had a delightful stay at this resort, especially during the holidays. The expansive property is beautiful, and we enjoyed using the bikes to explore every corner. The staff was incredible, with special mentions to Jorge and Osu for making our time memorable. However, the dining options became repetitive, and we faced issues with reservations and some disorganization during peak times. Overall, it's a lovely spot to relax, but there's room for improvement.
