Great clean property. Great food. Needs music

The rooms were clean. The food was the best food we had at any all inclusive ever. Especially the evening offerings. The only improvement we would like to see is maybe a little more music on the property. A little more energy on the beach etc. Easy fix. Just install a few extra speakers and you are good to go :).

Beautiful property, great food, great service in general. Could improve beachside service by either adding additional staff or QR codes on each cabana to allow guest to place order. More loungers around pool would be good too.

Everything was excellent but we think needs more entertainment options. And also the service at restaurant sometumes they rushed us and gives the impression they want us to leave the table sooner specially at the latest hours.

The property is clean, love the scent of the lobby, a bit dated though. We probably came during off peak times before spring break so it's not that crowded which was good so you have a good quiet time. You cannot adjust the thermostat in your room, it only goes either 69F or 70F. So this came as a big surprise for us. In the pool area, they always run out of floaters, guests were hoarding it even if they were not using it. Floaters were "parked" in the guest rooms where they are swim walk outs. The property has about 10 restaurants but only 1-2 are open for breakfast or lunch. The food was ok, tried the Spanish and Mexican restaurant and was disappointed, I had a lot of expectations. The Grill restaurant and Seafood restaurant is by far the only decent option from the ones we tried. We went out for brunch before checkout and when we came back to our room, our luggages were gone. They took our luggages from our room before checkout without informing us, which we were surprised. Shouldn't they do a courtesy call before doing this? Again, another surprise for us. Other than those things, we tried to enjoy ourselves in the resort.

We had the excellence club but weren’t informed of all the perks at check in so we didn’t realize there was a private restaurant until the day of check out. It felt like the staff that checked us in was in a hurry. Other than that the property itself is great, the cleanliness was great. The only thing that I didn’t like was that the cleaning staff would stand in the hallway at 8 AM preparing their stuff and talking to each other very loudly there’s a cabinet that leads to outside so you can hear everything.

You can eat anything and won't get sick but the choice in the main restaurant at noon was less than what they had the 3 other times I was there. Only a cold buffet at lunch; No hot buffet like before; 2 choices for dessert: ice cream or sorbet OR fruit. But the food was good and the à la carte restaurants were good.

The food and the property were excellent. I did not like that I scheduled a 12 day vacation, only used 2 nights and had to return due to personal emergency. The hotel did not consider my personal situation over Christmas and would not discuss any type of compensation or refund for my situation. Management at the hotel was appalling and I would never visit or use their facilities again nor would I recommend anyone to stay at this property.

Food and entertainment was fantastic; there is always something to do when you want to, but relaxing places to hang out wgen you don't. The suite was incredible, and the property beautifully maintained. Best of all was the staff. Avid, Luis, Santos, Angelo, Jose.... all with such good energy and personality.

We had a girls trip, this is the 3rd year in Riviera Maya and first time with Excellence. It is BY FAR the best resort we have stayed at. We stayed in the club level. The service is impeccable, the food was excellent and the resort is quiet (adults only helps) and very clean! We will definitely return.
