The property is a dated but SPACIOUS. There is a snack bar that closes at 4:30 and 1 restaurant in which you have to order from a menu and they take the menu as if you won't want anything else. Again ,all inclusive sir/ma'am. I will say the limited food offered was good. The restaurant is not open at all times so choose your limited snacks and meals accordingly. My husband and I have traveled to MANY All Inclusive resorts but NEVER to one like this. All the drinks are watered down and you have to pay extra money for any premium drinks so bring your wallet. There is no shuttle from this resort. There is a busing but even to get to it, you would need a taxi because the roads from the resort are not safe. Senses is in a secluded area. There is absolutely NOTHING around it but a couple of other resorts. You will have to go next door to enjoy the actual beach because the area in front of senses is very dirty. The steps to get to the beach are VERY dangerous so be careful. We took a taxi to the nearest store and it cost us $ 34 dollars. ALL the rooms are pool and ocean front so don't fall for all the glamour of spending more money. Non of the sliding doors on the balconies work. We called to try to get it fixed and maintenance came but said they would be back the next day to fix but never showed up. The relaxing pool was sooo damaged that we could not use it. We spoke with some of the other guests and they had the same issues we had. We won't be back. The staff was great!

Bad: 1)93$ unforeseen fee for smth I don’t know on your check in… 2) water was dripping from the ceiling, and ac didn’t work, but they fixed it on the same day. 3)No sand beach on the hotel property, but you can go to the next hotel beach. 4)Not all companies can pick you up from this hotel, you will have to find closest meeting point. 5) Very bumpy road to the hotel, huge holes… 6) You can’t use bathtub on the balcony without calling reception to fill it up. 7) sparks from one ac outlet when I plugged in my phone charger… 8) one time had someone’s hair in my breakfast eggs… Everything else is good.

The pictures were the best thing about this property unfortunately. It says Playa Del Carmen but it’s at least 30 mins from anything to do or places to eat. The food was recycled nightly. The same chicken breast, skirt steak and salad option just rearranged and barely edible. The menu was very limited, long wait time for the food considering there was never more than 5-6 people in the restaurant. We ended up leaving most days to find food, again 30 mins in either direction. They definitely had favorites and perhaps it was a tipping situation. I usually leave envelopes for tips on my way out for dining, customer service and cleaning staff so I’m not sure if they thought I wasn’t going to tip at all so the friendliness and service towards me was subpar. The room was nice but not well cleaned, mainly the soaker tub and the balcony plunge pool which were dirty. I’m use to smiling friendly faces at resorts, especially all inclusive resorts, but staff barely spoke and seemed to be annoyed when you saw them. The pictures paint a very different view than the actual atmosphere of this place. I’ve been to Mexico at least 4 other times and have had lovely experiences but in all I’d never stay there again and likely won’t be back after the way this last trip went.

The hotel rooms are very nice but that’s about all you get. Cristian at the front desk told me there is a $5 USD TIP MINIMUM. Keep in mind the property is ALL INCLUSIVE. I also came back to my room TWICE to someone random in there cleaning without my knowledge or permission. They do not have privacy notices to hang on your door. All the food is also Pre-made, i am almost certain. Everything taste and looked exactly the same everyday. They also charged me $3 USD for a lighter when all I did was ask to borrow. Also the 20-25min cab ride to the airport is at least $65 USD. And you don’t have a choice because everything is “regulated”. There’s nothing authentic about this place, they serve burgers, fries and play American music all day. Moral of the story is, I did not feel welcomed, AT ALL. This was my first and probably my LAST time in Mexico.
