El Cedral Vacation Rentals

"Fabulous hotel! The pool area is excellent (better than the beach house in my opinion) and open nice and late"

"Need more bars"

"Family friendly with lots of food options."

"In comparison to other AI resorts we’ve experienced better. Not much for teenagers to do in the evening. Restaurants were OK. Wish they would take reservations. Seems like that would be a better way to do. The rooms are small but clean. Best experience was over on the heaven side, but need to be 18+ to be over there. Security was very strict about wristbands where it was almost strange. Making you show or scan a wristband for no apparent reason. Most of the staff was fantastic. Also found it odd they charged for so many of the activities like bowling, laser tag, etc. other resorts have been to all of that is part of it."

"The location is perfect for those that like to get out and explore! Walking distance to everything! The rooms were beautiful! Everything was clean and bigger than expected. The bathrooms were gorgeous. Staff were top notch! From all the servers, housekeepers and bartenders. Breakfast buffet was delicious. Nice variety. The rooftop area is stunning! The rooftop food was pretty good. The hot tubs were nice and clean. Plenty of chairs and seating. I read other reviews about how loud the bar was on the rooftop. I did not experience that I was right under it on the 4th level. You could hear it but not too loud and was never on too late. I read reviews about construction noise and that was also never an issue for us. The only thing I would change would be the pool. It was dirty. Not just like dirty from being on a rooftop (which I get) sides of the pool were slimy and had visible algae. The water was always murky. At one point a piece of fruit floated past me as I decided it was time to get out. "

"Clean room and great staff"

"Okay"

"Everything"

"Rooms were average. There were no towels in our room the first day so we had to request them from the front. There is virtually no service at any of the meals especially breakfast or lunch at the buffet. At dinner, we were lucky to get excellent service from Miguel. The bartender by the pier was always great and so were the towel team by the pool. The store/pharmacy inside the hotel is a rip-off but you pay for the convenience. You can also walk 10 minutes for more stores if you need something that would undoubtedly be less of a rip off. We enjoyed borrowing the snorkelling gear from the resort and did so most of the days. Overall, I believe it’s a place to be if you enjoy snorkelling or water activities like scuba diving and not so much focussed on resort services. "
