Wasted the first day entirely on checking in. They gave us the wrong room type. We had two double beds for three people, but when we opened door it was only one bad. It took us the rest of the day to force front desk do something about it. We were sent three times into different lines to wait and talk to front desk, then concierge, then front desk. Each line was 20min long, lobby has no AC and everything moves extremely slowly in this place.
All staff is very kind and polite same but slow and not proactive. Gives impression of a place where you get what you served and nothing you can do about it.
Food is simple but good and fresh. Servers are very attentive and kind. Ocean is not the best.

Thank you Beatriz from concierge and all the staff at this hotel. This was the best resort in Mexico. 15/10 would definitely recommend and would definitely come again. Food was great. Pool was great, always different options, everything was easily accessible. Amazing vacation and I am mad that I have to leave! 😂

The entertainment crew is great and all the workers are super friendly and courteous. Food was great. The Kids Club ladies are awesome!. Cons which they cannot control is the seaweed in the beach. What they can control is putting either AC or fans in the Lobby. It gets extremely hot making it uncomfortable if you need to wait on lines. Which by the way sometimes can be a pretty long wait. Also missing fans in the Jaal-Ha one of the eating areas by the beach, you sweat while you eat. But the worst area to sit at is at the theater at black-and-white. There is absolutely no air. Nothing it is worse than the Black
And white theater it is super super extremely hot. Making it very difficult to enjoy the shows because it’s so hot. All in all I would probably still come visit. I did enjoy the atmosphere.

We stayed with friends. The hotel is very large, beautiful and clean.
For the restaurants, you have several choices. The buffet is fairly classic, but we always find something to eat. Too bad there wasn't much fruit.
The room was large, clean and quiet.
The beach bar was our favorite place, especially in the evening. The bartender, Balthazar, offered great service, was super nice, always smiling, we loved him.
The driver Fernando Mujales was the one who took us to our room on the first day, he explained every place in the hotel to us, he was very kind and very funny. We enjoyed our conversations with him - he's very friendly.
The entire staff is very smiling and friendly.
The only drawback of the hotel is the beach, which is not very beautiful.

We recently stayed at Blue Bay Resort, and the kids club was a highlight for our family. Our two little ones couldn’t stop talking about the fun they had, from treasure hunts to creative arts and crafts. The staff were so kind and attentive, it felt like they genuinely cared for each child. It gave us parents a chance to relax, knowing our kids were having a blast in a safe environment!
