Where to Stay (Room Selection & Renovations)

• Renovation Status: Recent guests note that Torre A and Torre B have seen more frequent cosmetic updates. Rooms in Torre C and especially Torre D are often described as “classic” or “dated” in reviews, though they offer a more traditional Cancun vibe.
• Quiet & Sleep: Stay in Torre D. It is the furthest from the Lobby Bar and the noisy Coco Bongo nightlife area located just outside the resort gates.
• Convenience: For families, Torre A or Torre B are superior. They provide the fastest access to the Aquamarina Cafe (buffet), the Kids Pool, and the main elevator banks.

Top Spots & Hidden Gems

• Guest Favorites: The area around the Siete Columnas (15) is the most photographed spot. For the best “infinity” feel, the loungers between the Jacuzzi (13) and the beach offer the best views of the Caribbean turquoise water.
• Secret Locations: The Gazebo (25) between Torre C and D is a lush, quiet garden escape. Most guests crowd the pool, leaving this area nearly empty for reading or meditation.
• Dining Tips: Hacienda El Mortero (21) is widely considered the best dining experience. Guests recommend the tableside prepared guacamole. At Bar Cascada (12), ask for the “Miami Vice” cocktail—a consistent favorite in guest feedback.

Practical Layout & Distances

• Real Distances: The Resort Layout is linear and quite walkable. Moving from Torre A to Torre D takes approximately 5-7 minutes at a leisurely pace.
• Accessibility: While the Property Map shows a flat layout, there are small sets of stairs leading down to the beach level. Families with strollers should use the ramps located near the SPA (26) and the main pool deck to avoid lifting.
• Shortcuts: If checking in at Torre C, use Recepción 2 (20) during peak hours to avoid the massive lines often found at the main Front Desk (2) in Torre A.

Map FAQ

• Where is the heated pool? The main pool is generally not heated, but the Jacuzzi (13) is kept at a high temperature.
• Where do I get towels? The towel stand is located near the Activities Stand (10); you will need your towel card provided at check-in.
• Is there a shuttle? No, the Hotel Layout is compact enough that shuttles are not required.
• Where is the best beach access? Directly in front of Las Velas (18). This area has the fewest rocks and the calmest waves due to the natural breakwater.
• Is gym access included? Yes, the Gym (26) in Torre B is included for guests, though it is compact.
• Where can I book tours? Visit the Agencia de Viajes (3) in the main lobby of Torre A.
