Very nice property, nice pools and good restaurants. Restaurants are open almost all day long, and the food was delicious. Staff were very friendly and helpful. A lot of activities, so we were never bored. No hidden fees, it’s really all inclusive, water, drink, snacks… the most beautiful thing about this place is the beach. It’s very clean white sand beach and the ocean is calm. This was my fourth vacation in Cancun, and it is the best experience.

This is my second time staying at this location, and I absolutely love the beach and the view. The only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is that I feel the quality of the food has declined over the years (14 years). The first time I stayed at a Dreams Resort, the food had better authenticity and offered more traditional Mexican options, rather than feeling as commercialized as it does now. However, one improvement over the years is that the sales department has significantly toned down their approach. They no longer pressure guests into the “90-minute” (often 4-6 hours) presentations for vacation memberships. Overall, our experience was wonderful. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and embraced the beach life every moment we were there.

The only downside was that the beach gets sunny after 10:30 am or so due to the height and location of the hotel. Otherwise, amazing location and stay.

A large ethnic group was allowed to take over restaurants and the beach area for their meetings (microphone and amplifier) basically ruining the vacation for the rest of us. They moved our personal property three times and threw it on the ground.

If you want sunshine, this is not the place for you. The pool areas and most of the beach are shaded most of the day. This makes the pools much too cold for swimming. Almost zero decking around the pools. There is one tiny spa that was filled with small children. We didn’t meet any other guests who would dare to get in the spa. Preferred pool is also freezing and there is not a spa. This is not a warm place to vacation.
