Not a fan of all inclusive resorts but attended a function at the Fives and was nicely surprised by the quality of food, named brand drinks and A1 friendly, well trained staff. The resort goes above and beyond the norm with BBQs, silent discos, special events in the adults only areas, concerts and lots of other events for entire family. By booking with Expedia received a nice welcome gift, half priced transfers and an upgrade to a nice suite. Thank you Expedia. Only stayed in 4 all inclusive resorts (4 & 5 star) previously with the Fives by far the best value and food/drinks. A good choice for mid-range family resort.

Five Beaches did not disappoint in cleanliness, layout, amenities, and over all service. My family and I loved the ability to get to the beach, swim in the pools, and yes we did All Inclusive with drinks a plenty which makes it easy for all. However, only rated 4* because they were rated as having "Vegan Options" but that was not the case at all. It was truly unfortunate with how challenging it was to find food outside of fries, potatoes, and fruit. I wish this was advertised better. I know that is unique to my families health & food choices as everyone else was raving about the food options, just Vegans you do have to go through the normal challenges due to our diet selections.

Check in was a breeze! Our room was ready when we got there. Some of the staff were especially awesome, like Eric at the front, Isaac on the transportation carts, and Antonio in Arezzo. They were all 5 stars. The pros of our stay are the service from the above mentioned, the food at Arezzo, not needing reservations for dinner, and the spacious rooms. The cons are that the shuttle ended three buildings from where we were, the elevator didn't work for five of our seven day trip and we were on the fourth floor, the fridge was never restocked, the maid never left facial towels even after we asked, the beds were made daily but they didn't clean the room, the locks on the doors didn't work so the Coati let themselves in. The defecated all over the floor and the sofas of the penthouse one evening, got into one of the beds in the small room, and went through the make up bags in the other. Flavors had good food in the morning, but not equipped for so many people, so a lot of the options were scarce, including playes and cutlery. Burgers and pizza at the beach were great. Italian was the best. We ate there 6 nights and the food or Antonio never disappointed. The weather was windy all week, which drove the seaweed to the beach but the staff were constantly at it, doing their best to keep it clean. We spent our days at the beach pool. The staff there would remove our towels from our chairs if we left for lunch. The trip was ok. I wouldn't return. There's better for less money.

We had a great stay at The Fives! Food was delicious, lots of options to choose from. Staff was very attentive with us and treated us well. My only two comments are: 1) beach was rocky to get into, i prefer more sandy beaches; 2) more of a family resort, limited nightlife options and everything is closed by 11pm

Property was great. Loved the resort and people were friendly. Room wasn't as expected as booked 2 bedroom penthouse suite and received 2 seperate rooms instead. 1, 1 bedroom suite, and another unconnected room with 2 queen beds. If had young children, wouldn't be ok. Our suite had a lot of issues. Jacuzzi on roof leaked, didn't stay full and Jerry's didn't work. Reported and maintenance came 3 times but didn't fix. Later in stay air conditioner started leaking in our room so water dropping from ceiling. Reported but fix was only to shut off ac unit which still leaked. Staff was very friendly everywhere except for one front desk employee named Alma who was very rude. Loved the Thai restaurant and the beach and the atmosphere of the resort. Had a lot of fun other than the water in the room. Overall a great stay, but maintenance needed in our room.

Exceeded expectations

This was our first trip to Mexico and our first time staying in an all-inclusive resort. From the moment we arrived we were greeted with phenomenal service; bags were checked, drinks offered, and escorted to our Ambassador. The staff were amazing and made the stay worth it! The two-bedroom suite was huge and much more than we needed for four people - but we are glad that our teenagers were able to have their own space. The only complaint I have were the wait times at restaurants, but that was resolved quickly by either going at 5:30pm or after 8:30pm.

We enjoyed our six-night stay at The Fives Beach & Residences. We stayed in a two-bedroom suite as we are a family of six. We appreciated that the suite had balconies. We liked the location of our suite (villa nine) -- next time I think I'd ask for a ground level suite facing a pool and I might ask for one of the newer buildings as the original villas are a bit dated now. We really enjoyed the pools at the resort and also our time on the beach. It's fun to walk along the sand and check out the beachfront of other hotels -- I like that the beach is very open. The hotel restaurants are mostly good, with, very importantly, attention to food safety -- nobody in our party got sick (and you do hear a lot of food sickness stories from Mexico lately). We did a snorkel express excursion to the nearby reef and were treated so well by the guides. I would recommend this resort to families with a range of ages -- it was good for our children and teens. Pluses: lots of pool/beach towels available, friendly staff, beautiful pools.
