Our stay was great. I'll start with the bad. We had a tropical storm and it flooded our room. But the staff was attentive and came that morning, cleaned the room, put plexiglass over the screen, so that when it rained again, the rain had less of a chance to get into the room. That mostly helped, but the window seal was in need of repair and we discovered that is where some of the rain was coming into the room. So, when it rained again, we still had rain on our floor, but less of it. Again, they came right away the next morning and cleaned it up while we were at breakfast. Okay, the great things I loved about this place... EVERYONE was so nice and welcoming. Daniel checked in daily via text. The servers at the pools were circling back right when you needed a refill. There was daily activities going on around the resort, rain or shine. We only ate at the restaurants a few times but what we had was good. We ventured off the resort for dinner because we were so close to walking distance to anything and everything you might be in the mood for. Navigating around was easy with Google Maps. Overall, I would recommend this resort to family and friends.

The check in process was easy but the package we purchased was not explained at all. We also were not greeted with the complimentary welcome drink. There were plenty of staff at the resort during the day however there was not any pool service and you had to go to the bar to order drinks over and over. The property itself it’s absolutely stunning and very easy to relax. Beaches were clean, pools were clean, and chairs were plentiful. The food options were limited and menus did not change so by the end of the week you are burned out of the same meals. The village within walking distance was a plus as we got to shop and eat with the locals. Checkout was quick but no way to easily check if the charges were correct since they were not dated. Very good value resort. We enjoyed our stay.

We just got back from 10 nights at the Mahekal. We got a free upgrade as it was low season, which was great, though the view from the balcony was poor in one room. Check-in was smooth, cleaning was thorough and regular and the facilities were great. No problems finding a spot at the pools or the beach. The only downsides were that my son lost his key card on the second day and the receptionist wanted US$15 for a new one, which is a ridiculous price — many hotels do them for free and we had spent so much on the rooms that this seemed like and extra “squeeze” to me; the other was that they wanted to charge US$60 per room to check out three hours after the checkout time — again, another “squeeze” to get more out of their customers. This is why I have marked them down for service. That said, the entire resort is all about US-style tips and extra payments here and there, so I guess the mentality simply fits in with the local ethos. Lovely hotel though
