First of all, the staff was amazing, not one single rude person on the resort. Special thank you to all the staff at the La Caretta, for some reason I cannot leave their names per Expedia... but the entire staff was so great. Wonderful, loving staff, took very good care of us. The ladies at the Royal check in, I failed to get their names, but I hope they are recognized as they made the check in so smooth and so sweet. Now about the resort. This resort was fabulous. the accommodations were fabulous, all the food was really good, Pools and beach is outstanding. Wish the Mexican food was more authentic, but the staff, wonderful. Seafood restaurant was good as was the Mediterranean. We just had a wonderful time and high recommend this resort.

Happy

The room was spotless and the staff was amazing. Great food and a great location. Well done!

We enjoyed everything!

Las instalaciones están muy bonitas excelente trato por parte del personal solo siento que les falta mejorar la parte de la comida un poco más de variedad el show del dueto musical me agrado bastante

The resort overall is pretty good, expected more based off the ratings. The hurricane that hit it a few years ago had a significant impact on it. I would rate our stay as good. The cleanliness of the resort was very good, but there were a lot of things that were needing attention. Our shower head was somewhat detached from the ceiling so it would spray water out of the shower for the first portion of the water running. The ice machine for our area didn't work the entire week. They ran out of one of the alcoholic beverages that I drink and the staff response was basically we have no idea when we'll have more. It's an all inclusive but not really. Room service is at an extra charge. The refrigerator in our room got things cool, probably about the temperature you'd drink red wine. We ate at three of the signature restaurants. The Greek one and Coral the seafood restaurant were not good. The Mexican one was ok. The daily buffet was completely hit and miss. The first day most of the entrees were cold. After that you'd be lucky if there was bacon in the morning or tortilla chips at lunch. They'd seem to only put them out about once an hour and then they'd be gone. Thankfully we realized most of this early on and ate away from the resort more than on site. The good. The staff were all very friendly and extremely accommodating. That was the only portion of the trip that was 5 stars. The pool and beach area were nice and they had some fun activities to partake in.

Rooms varied from building to building. We stayed in number 19 on the second floor and found things to be brighter with good views and breezes compared to my family who were on the first floor of #10. It’s a smaller resort and loved the feel of being surrounded by nature. Staff were friendly and responsive. Loved that there wasn’t a prominent tip culture. It was a nice, relaxed atmosphere. Loved being able to snorkel from the beach and take out the kayaks. Limited sights to see outside or around the resort unless you’re looking to go diving or snorkelling.

O quarto era muito espaçoso e silencioso! Hotel com funcionários educados, bons drinks e bom café da manhã e almoço, porém o jantar pode melhorar. A praia é linda, mas não gostei que salva vidas proíbe entrada no mar depois das 18h. Tive um pequeno problema com uma peça de roupa que sumiu. Foram dias maravilhosos

La comida no fue tan agradable, no tenían buen sazón y no hay mucha variedad, en cuestión al personal en general todos excelentes...

Propiedad muy linda, el trato fue de excelencia solo pulir las cuestiones de alimentos para ser una experiencia fabulosa Fuimos una familia de 17 integrantes y coincidimos en lo mismo "Instalaciones bellísimas y trato muy bonito" Gracias Occidental por estos días tan bellos. Salidos de la Familia Juárez, del Estados de México

Title: Serious Crocodile Attacked Our stay was completely overshadowed by extremely serious safety issues at the beach, which were not properly addressed by hotel management. During our stay, my husband was swimming when another guest urgently warned him to exit the water because a large crocodile was present very close to shore. He immediately got out of the water and clearly saw the crocodile, estimated to be approximately nine feet long. He began warning others on the beach, including another couple who were still in the water, allowing them to exit safely. Only three days later, a far more severe incident occurred. At that time, approximately 30 people were swimming in the area. We heard screams and realized a woman had been attacked by a crocodile while in the water with a small child (around five years old). The crocodile grabbed her across the body. Guests from the shore rushed to help and managed to pull her out of the water. She was taken to the hospital, and when we left the hotel about six days later, she was still hospitalized. Following this incident, I spoke with hotel management on multiple occasions regarding guest safety. Unfortunately, the crocodile was not removed, no warning signs were posted on the beach, and guests continued to enter the water unaware of the danger. New arrivals were not informed of crocodile danger.

It’s a beautiful property, but the a la carte restaurants are imposible to get in so you have to end up eating at the buffet, which serves the same food every day. The a la carte restaurants are small and reservations fill out fast. The buffet restaurant also gets long lines, definitely not worth the all inclusive price.

Rooms were spotless and serviced every day. Beautiful stay in the middle of woods with a serene and accessible beach. We stayed 5 nights with all inclusive package. Things we loved: - Direct access to the water to snorkel and it was worth it - Beautiful location -Beautiful architecture -love how the light hit the chandeliers in the main area - Clean rooms -Clean pools - Great staff (except front desk) -Loved the New Years celebration Things to be aware of: -there is one pool for activities and kids. There is an adult only pool as well. The hot tub is only for Royal club members. -If you love seafood and meat, there are lot of options. However, vegetarian and vegan food options were limited in the buffet Things to improve on: -Front desk staff need to be trained better. We found them slow and inefficient. -Our keys didn’t work multiple times during our stay. The first time, we had dragged all our luggage to the room only to realize the key wasn’t activated! - Vegetarian options like veg fajitas, enchiladas, etc could be helpful for non meat eaters - Kids activities were all conducted at the pool, would be nice to have some indoor time too. I think the name of the conductor was Jesus, he did a splendid job interacting with kids and making them comfortable. -Guests need to be asked to not reserve beach chairs hours in advance. Some of them just left towels to reserve early AM and only came to the beach at 2PM, while others had to sit on sand instead.

Food and service were subpar. (We are not picky eaters). At the buffet restaurants ( lunch and dinner). Multiple food would dishes would run out and not be restocked for over half hour. May not get water till done with meal. The lodging was excellent and the beach area nice. Would go again because of the quietness and beach area.

Room was great

La comida siempre rica, la atención del staff siempre muy amables

Really enjoyed this property. Staff were lovely, food was great and the pools, beach and entertainment were great. Would come back and would recommend

The food was very bad breakfast lunch and dinner very bad even the restaurant were bad nothing to do at the resort. Beach closes at night. The bars don't even open until 11:30 never experienced that before so sad will never be returning
