Overall, the hotel offers a great experience with comfortable rooms and a fantastic team that really puts effort into serving guests. The location is wonderful, being so close to the vibrant atmosphere of Playa del Carmen, but the cleaning service could definitely improve. The dining options are decent but have room for enhancement, particularly in the casual dining areas. Despite these minor issues, I felt it was good value for the price we paid and would happily return.

I had a fabulous stay at the hotel, enjoying its cleanliness and comfort. The staff were attentive and made our experience truly special. The dining options were enjoyable, particularly the themed restaurants, but we did find some food to be a little repetitive. The pool area was fun and lively, although some days it felt a bit too crowded, and the reservation of sun beds was a hassle. Overall, I would recommend it for anyone looking for a vibrant vacation with plenty of activities.

Overall, my stay at the hotel left me feeling mixed. The location is beautiful with a great beach nearby and the facilities were enjoyable, but the dining experience was quite disappointing and the service lacked a personal touch. I appreciate the cleanliness of the accommodations, but inconsistencies with housekeeping impacted my experience significantly.
Rooms

The rooms looked nice at first, especially after the refurbishment, but cleanliness was an issue as my sheets weren't changed regularly. The unusual bathroom layout lacked privacy.

The hotel is set in a picturesque area near the beach, making it a lovely spot for a vacation, but it's quite large, which can detract from a more personal service experience.

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel with its beautiful grounds and clean, spacious rooms. The food was definitely a highlight, offering plenty of variety. However, the snack bar left a bit to be desired, and the swim-up bar was too warm for my liking. Overall, the experience was great, but a few improvements could make it even better.

Our stay at the Tequilla was absolutely fantastic! The resort is well laid out, and everything was sparkling clean. We loved the buffet options and really appreciated fantastic service from Adolfo, who was always attentive. The pools were amazing-never crowded-making it easy to relax. However, the beach transportation could use some improvement, as buggies were often insufficient, and the seaweed on the shore was a bit disappointing.
Rooms

The room was spotless and cleaned daily with fresh towels. Everything worked perfectly, and we were even accommodated with a first-floor room due to my knee issues, which made our stay comfortable.

The resort is situated in a beautiful area with easy access to the beach. While it's not an arduous walk to the beach, it could feel tiring if you have a lot to carry.
