The pools are great, and the overall atmosphere is relaxing. Food options and quality could be improved, and I definitely recommend booking the adults-only TRS section for a better experience. Most of the staff provided excellent service, but the pool bar at White Sands was a bit slow, and at times, it felt like we were being overlooked.

This resort gave me one of the best vacation experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment I arrived, the hospitality and security were exceptional. Reception set the tone, and Martin deserves a huge shoutout—he was incredibly patient and explained everything about the resort, the restaurants, and the activities in detail. We were also assigned our own concierge team, Dave and Cielo, and they were outstanding. Whatever we needed, they handled it—from answering questions to booking our restaurant reservations. Jesús at the front desk was also extremely accommodating with reservations. They made the entire trip stress-free. The buffet and restaurants were spotless, and the staff in both the dining area and the kitchen were generous, attentive, and truly dedicated to great service. I’m genuinely grateful for this experience, and I’ll be recommending this resort to my coworkers, colleagues, friends, and family. A perfect place for a smooth, worry-free vacation.

Overall good stay. Staff was very attentive, our concierge Cielo was awesome and constantly checked on us. Carlos was great at casino night and had a very good vibe. Luis at the TRS pool was top notch. Overall bartenders and restaurant staff were friendly and efficient. Thanks to Expedia (not sure if Expedia in general or due to our Platinum status) we received an upgrade to “vip” which gave us access to TRS facilies and restaurants. The food (especially breakfast and buffets) were night and day between TRS and the other “lower-end” parts of the resort, which made our experience much more enjoyable. Unfortunately the buffet at the non-TRS properties was below par for a 5 star restaurant. Romance bungalow was very unique and neat, nice to not have neighbors above or below you. Ovearll this is a good property, and would come bacl but probably book TRS next time.

My luggage was delayed and the hotel failed to notify me it was delivered even after I inquired multiple times. They never gave it to me and it’s been missing now for 2 weeks. They ruined my family vacation! Additionally there was construction taking place next to our hotel. There were some days when the pathways were closed so you had to walk around. Would have been good to have a prior notice.

The TRS pool was amazing and they had fun aqua activities during the day like aerobics and water bike class. Overall the service was amazing no matter where you were from the check-in, to shops, to dining and concierge. The resort was pristine everywhere. The only little hiccup was waiting for shuttles to take you from different areas, sometimes the wait was a little long in the heat but it wouldn't deter me from staying again! Shout out to Angel at the front desk, Adrian at concierge and David and Cielo at Villa 59 and the entire staff at Helios for exceptional service!

room was fine, could of been cooler as it was still hot in there. Though we had a major issue with getting in our room the first 24hrs and they seemed to not help us until we threated to talk to manager and wanted a day no charge. very frustrating . David the consirge was good, but Ceilo was not. the issue didn't get completley fixed in the long run, and still had issues getting into our room for the rest of the stay but it worked out. no compensation was given to us which i found was not good. they should of done at least a free massage or free night, but instead gave us vouchers for hydro therapy which was a value of $50 us each. and it wasn't that great
