“I absolutely loved the fun, energetic vibe of this hotel, everything feels lively and colourful, especially the rooms, which were full of character. The property is huge, but the staff were honestly some of the loveliest I’ve met, always happy to point me in the right direction (I definitely got lost more than once!). Room service was super easy to use, and I loved the little touch of having Mexican music channels on the TV, it really added to the atmosphere.
One of the biggest highlights is just how much is included. You get access to all the parks, activities and workshops, which means every day feels completely different. Whether you’re in the mood for adventure, culture, nature or something creative, there’s always something to dive into.
For me, this hotel is perfect for groups of friends or multi-generational families who want variety and fun built into their stay. It’s a really exciting, playful hotel, I wouldn’t personally choose it for a quiet couples retreat, although there were definitely some couples enjoying it!” ~ Hannah
