We travelled as a family of 4 for 2 weeks June 2-16. With two kids aged 2-4. This resort is absolutely beautiful, carved out of the jungle, gorgeous walkways through the mangroves, marble and fountains everywhere and amazing wildlife. In fact it's hard to walk 50' especially in the daytime without coming across an iguana (or dinosaur as my 2yr... More

My husband and I traveled to White Sands from May 30th to June 4th. My husband really lobbied for the Mayan Suite to try and make our trip more romantic. THAT WAS A MISTAKE. From the moment we entered our "suite" I knew we were doomed. They have an outdoor shower, which to most would be nice and romantic, but... More

This was our first time for an all inclusive and a return to Mexico after years of staying away for safety concerns. We are committed cruisers but we needed to squeeze a 5 day graduation vacation between undergraduate and graduate school. So I started the search for a quick flight to a beach location. We have had multiple trips to... More

Overall the resort was good. We stayed in White Sands 59 close to beach and dive shop. The room was spacious and the fridge was stocked daily.
