Hotels near Palancar Reef

"Room was nice, but not wonderful. Main restaurant doesn’t have AC (Eating in sweltering temperatures is rough). Food is good though. No robes/slippers (Other resorts on the island have them in all their rooms). Flooring in the rooms is ice-cold so slippers would be nice. Staff is friendly but not Super Friendly. Entertainment was outstanding. Wildlife everywhere, which is wonderful. Glass water bottles that they make you use are outrageously heavy. The floor is beautiful and the water is warm. The bartenders at the pool are not very happy. Their drinks are ok. Water aerobics is fun. The resort grounds are beautiful. The bathroom floors at the pool are slipperier than an ice-skating rink."

"If you plan to stay at this resort, I highly recommend renting a car for your stay. If you don’t, you will be at the mercy of various aggressive salespeople who will quote you wildly different and inflated prices for any activities you might want to do in order to offer you ‘discounts’ if you agree to sit through the vacation club presentation. You will lose hours of your vacation to this harassment and will be subjected to some pretty nasty attitude if you dare to point out that their 30K (plus per person ‘food’ charges every trip) price tag for 25 years of vacations isn’t at all the amazing deal they claim it is. The resort grounds are beautifully maintained and the staff are wonderful - except for the front desk workers and the aforementioned salespeople. The beach has eroded a great deal but the sand is still nice and the water clear. However, this property is located at the end of a line of resorts along the same beach and is adjacent to a nature park which is home to crocodiles. The only reference to this danger are very small signs about wildlife at the edge of the beach. In early April, a guest was brutally attacked by a crocodile in the water in front of the resort. I found out about this just before our trip but we had already booked so I couldn’t change to a different hotel. I watched many couples wander off down the beach towards the park and no one from the staff warned them. The food is bad - the worst I’ve had at any resort I’ve stayed at."

"Room was wonderful, but communication and information wasn’t readily available"

"Did not like that there was too many mosquitoes. Got bitten way too much."
