We enjoyed our stay at fenix beach club! We stayed in the deluxe bungalow which was very nice and cleaned daily. Though the downfalls of fenix for us were the food price for relatively mediocre food as well as the slow service during breakfast and dinner time as we waited on average of 45 minutes just to be served. However the staff were very kind and helpful which made the overall stay at fenix very enjoyable and we would recommend staying there to anyone in the future.

My toilet in my room kept overflowing even after it was fixed the first time. No phone so I would have to leave my room if I desired anything for me or for the room. Early morning construction woke me up. At night dogs around the property would bark at night, and worse if it starts to rain. I saw dogs without their leash and saw two cats around the reception area. I mean why have animals wandering around the property? One of the dogs barked at me as it was blocking the path to go to my room. Furniture at the beach were dirty and covered with ants. I went to gag some breakfast and I sat down waiting for 15 minutes to be served. I lost my patience and left. Thank goodness there were snacks in my room and water in my minibar. I miss the hop on and off bus tour because the boat couldn’t make it on time to the hotel due to the rain. Plus as I walked around to explore the property the walkway had cracks and I almost fell. I was miserable
