This is a beautiful resort! The landscaping and architecture of the resort is very impressive and truly inspire relaxation in a luxurious ambiance. It was a little sketchy how they tried to get us to upgrade right away by saying all the standard rooms with single beds where booked all that was left where rooms with two double size beds. My wife and I had already decided to upgrade anyways so it wasn't too big of a deal. The rooms are a decent size, good tv with cable. The wifi is great! Accessible throughout the grounds. Not too much privacy with the bathroom but overall it was a great room. Restaurants were top notch! Ppl really dressed up in the evening and made everything seem really classy. Staff were very friendly and attentive. The live band was very talented and entertaining. The excursions were easy to set up with the BD rep. We did the Coba Mayan encounter. Long day but fun, with zip lining, kayaking, cenote swimming and rappelling followed by trip to Coba. The only part that we did not like was the "free" excursion into Playa del Carmen. The BD rep totally misled us, the excursion is paid for by a Jewelry store with that catch that you get driven there first and have to spend 90 mins there. Followed by 25 mins at a glass blowing factory and then a drive into the city. Save your time and pay for the shuttle into the city!
