Perfect beach vacay

5.0 of 5 bubblesReviewed 5 Jun 2024via mobile
Fantastic beach destination! Currently enjoying a 9 day vacation here. Food (buffet and a la cartes) is fresh, excellent quality, and great variety. Service is amazing, friendly staff. Beautiful beach, well maintained (the days when sargasso comes on shore it’s quickly removed). Plenty of loungers with lots of shade. Clean rooms, clean common areas, great views everywhere with beautiful garden areas and spectacular beach. Will definitely be back. Pool is nice, lots of activities throughout the day, but beach is the highlight here. Love the Catalonia Playa Maroma.

Hotel was super clean, and staff was super friendly and not pushy. Food was not my favorite, but that's mostly due to a difference in how I like my food seasoned. The pool was amazing, and staff always ready to hand you your next drink. The beach was also beautiful. The volleyball court does seem to go to waste though as I didn't see anyone playing at any point.

I am also not a club person, but they do have a club inside the hotel. However, the one time we went, it was pretty dead, so keep that in mind. I would definitely go back for another vacation!

Me and my husband went back here for the 2nd time on the 8th April for 2week, we thought it was lovely first time round but as we had just come out of covid and going back it offered so much more this time. We were In the premium room (different to privileged) and it was lovely spacious and the beds and pillows are just the comfiest ever, they were cleaned every day and were absolutely spotless. Food was delicious something for everyone , so many options to choose from a special big shout out to Abel in the restaurant he was so attentive, knowledgeable a true gentleman, all the staff were so polite and helpful wherever they worked. The Entertainment at night was Excellent the singers , band and dancers did a fantastic job especially loved Boogie and Rock nights. If I had to change anything it would just be nightclub could just do a wider genre of songs to suit all tastes. The hotel is situated on the most beautiful white talcum powder beach and turquoise sea. It really is the most perfect place and we will definitely be back ❤️

Room tip: Never put any food or snacks in your beach bags , the coatis take no prisoners ☺️

Overall great resort. We went in end of the May for 10 days with 2 kids (8 and 5 year old). They loved the kids club. The walk from the lobby to beach about 5-7 min walk, I timed it. Which is not bad at all.

Check in was super fast and what surprised me is that we never were bothered by timeshare, thank you for that.

We got a good deal on this resort, so for the money it was good.

Beach was really good, clean and nice sand, a lot of shade and beds to chose. One of the best beaches, that alone gets 4 stars for us. Seaweed was at the minimal, so that was nice. They do clean it every day. Water was beautiful.

Food: buffet is ok, my theory is that they cater toward French and Italian people, so menu is slightly different? But I could be wrong. We were never hungry but food choice is just ok. Pizza in buffet is really good, better than by the beach.
Burgers surprisingly we're good.

We liked the grill and Italian, didn't go to others. Scheduling restaurant was never an issue

Beautiful resort, a lot of animals, trees.
We stayed in 2220 room, ac worked really well, we actually turned it down because we were too cold. Room were nice, no complaints there

Entertainment was good for the kids, I personally don't care much usually.

Pool is big and didn't feel crowded but the water for some reason is warm. You get used to it but sometimes wanted cooler water.

Resort is on the smaller side I would say, it's quite, great for family or just to chill. We loved it. There were bunch of French, Italian and Spanish people, not much Americans. Staff spoke English with no problem.

We definitely would not mind coming back. It's all about price I think. Shout out to Niko? French guy who works there

It's all how you prepare yourself, if you positive you will like it if you negative, you will always find things to complain. For People who travel to Mexico and other resorts alot it could be good and bad experience since you always compare to others hotels, but the question is, if you liked the other one why you didn't go back to that hotel? Because you wanted to try others or it was cheaper. If you trying it, be open minded, if it's money thing, then rate accordingly.

Room tip: don't let your entitlement ruin the vacation. No one is owning you nothing. No one can make vacation good for you unless you make it yourse
