Beautiful Place

Excellence el carmen es un hotel magnífico además de la atención por parte de todos los trabajadores Lo único que deberian de advertir sobre el sargazo existente ya que no es posible bañarse asi en la playa Pero todo lo demás como atención, comida y la estadía es muy buena

PROS The bartenders are friendly and nice. Shoutout Antonio and Amber by the pool. Fiod quantity: A lot of restaurant options every night to try something new. The private pool was amazing and had a good view to the ocean The nightly shows were amazing. All of the dancers and performers were incredibly talented and it was an absolute treat every night. Unexpected high level entertainment. Room service was awesome. CONS Bedding: was not comfortable at all. Sheets felt like a public school paper towel and pillows felt like they were made in bedrock. The beach: not sure if it was just a bad time of year but the beach was absolutely disgusting & filled with seaweed everywhere. They were consistently bulldozing and trying to clean it but to no avail. If you are expecting a beautiful beach, go elsewhere. No one was even at the beach, let along in the water. Everyone was by the pool each day. Reservations for restaurants: we were told that a few restaurants needed reservations. We called around noon for reservation that night & they were full. They said they were booked into next week. Not very ideal for a 4 day vaca. Restaurants: Many restaurants that didnt do reservations had long wait times depending on when you went. Go early. Food Quality: Just wasn't that great. Kids: although advertised as "adults only", one side of the resort is family . So dont expect a true "adults only" experience during dinner or entertainment

It was truly a 50/50 experience not enough good to outweigh the bad sum staff nice sum are rude food was mid entertainment was boring not really much to do on the resort especially at night club cost games cost at the bar
