This place is amazing! The food, drinks and service are all so much better than expected! For anyone who is reading this, believe me, I was just as skeptical as you are. However, Excellence El Carmen will NOT disappoint. From the time you arrive until the time you leave you will feel like you have been transported into a different world! I highly recommend you to stay with excellence club access as well as their spa. Also, please don’t forget to try their French restaurant. 10/10. All of the food is amazing. You will not be disappointed. This trip was a SOLID 10/10! I highly recommend it to singles as well as couples.

We loved this resort and look forward to staying again in the future. The swim-up room was fantastic, loved that the Excellence Club bar next to us served us drinks in our swim-up! The room was large and comfortable. The property is very walkable and many restaurants and bars are centrally located so it is easy to find what you want and get to them quickly. The staff was very attentive and accommodating. Loved that we didn't feel upsold or pressured to buy upgrades anywhere, we had everything we needed!

Very wellness oriented, a zen like feel, perfect to totally disconnect from daily routine. Bathrooms in rooms need special attention, conditions of the walls and showers are very poor which makes it look dirty. Customer Service could also be better, a bit more friendly and offer options instead of saying “no”. Overall a great experience. Would def check out the resorts under Excellence brand.
