The Staff was wonderful, throughout the entire Resort. The Food was better than expected at all of the Restaurants. The atmosphere was intimate & beautiful throughout the Resort. The Beach was very windy, but there were plenty of Chairs & Staff was very attentive out there, as well.

We had a great stay at secrets. During our stay we upgraded for the last two nights to an ocean front apartment with a pool thanks to Wilbur's recommendation. Whilst pricey it was worth every penny and gave us a luxury experience to celebrate our anniversary. Huge thanks to all in the entertainment team, Alejandro and also Coral in the shop who went above and beyond to source a hot pink souvenir cup for me to remember the trip by. We also had a great trip out to Isla Mujeres as recommended to us by Jonas who really took the time to go through excursion options with us to ensure we picked the best one. It was great being able to make use of the Dreams resort next door including the pools. We will be back. Read less

I love mostly everything in this resort. From the accommodation and foods they’re all great. I would say the downfall of staying in this resort is when it rains heavy cause their lobby is flooding and even outside the rooms too. Also, the waiters are rushing taking the plates off the table most especially if we’re not done eating yet. Few services need improvements. Amenities are all great too! I highly recommend my family, friends and whoever reads this review to try and enjoy this resort. Read less

Overall, this place is nice (good food options and quality, excellent customer service, and fun atmosphere). We enjoyed the entertainment, and pool time, and the property is beautiful! We aren't fans of having to wait to take golf carts to get around the property (to the restaurants, the lobby, and to Dreams).

My husband and I went for our honeymoon, it was amazing. The location, the food, the experience to remember. The staff was amazing. If you are going to visit, I recommend you look for the pool concierge, Jaime Lagunas. He was so helpful with the day to day information and activities. We also had the pool waiter named Cesar.
