Tips from Shelley & Matthew:
-We highly recommend checking out Cocotal for the best breakfast buffet, the Health Bar for paninis and smoothies, D'italia Casitas for Italian, Jade for Asian, Santa Fe for Mexican and la Cabana Pizzeria for wood fired pizzas by the pool.
-Our favorite pool was Spot Swim up Bar, which is a peaceful pool away from the party scene with a swim up bar. This pool also features cabana beds.
-Be sure to meet with the concierge right away on check-in to book your dinners, additional excursions if desired and travel return to the airport. All dinners must be booked ahead of time.
-Don't forget your pool floaties and sunscreen. Both are sold on site, but for an increased price.
-Small tips to staff are appreciated and USD is accepted.
-There are resort shuttles to take you around the resort.
-Room service is 24 hrs, just call them from your room phone
-Your reservation includes The More Inclusive options include a Catamaran, Water Park and Cenote, please reserve these fun events at the resort. More Inclusive™
