The property was in the jungle and was beautiful! The adult pool was really nice but the water was warm. The other pools were mediocre. Lots of dining options but food and drinks were just “o’k”. We went there for the wildlife and we’re not disappointed. We saw monkeys almost everyday! That was awesome! Employees were all very nice. Front desk is small and it took 1 1/2 hours to check in!

Overall it was good., The jungle environment was great and the kids enjoyed seeing all the different animals. Staff were friendly and attended to all our requests/queries. Pool facilities were also decent. Area for improvement - The hotel offers an international restaurant, an italian restaurant and a mexican restaurant option where reservations are not required. The food choice and quality here was average. Whilst the Italian restaurant had very little Italian food options. System to book restaurants (japanese and brazilian) that required a reservation was unfair. People were required to log in at midnight to a reserve a table. We tried a number of times and were unsuccessful. We complained and were given a reservation at the japanese restaurant.

The property itself was not well kept and neither were the rooms. We upgraded to a penthouse suite and to be honest I have been in hostels with nicer beds and furniture. I’m not big on believing the food claims about these all inclusive resorts as you have to temper your expectation. However, this resort the food was horrible the specialty restaurants with the exception of Los Liros (which was phenomenal) had horrible food and we even had bugs running around on our plates at one of them. Some of the staff were awesome and others were beyond rude. I was curious about the vacation club and the presentation was so hostile and disgusting they wouldn’t even talk to me about it and provide information without getting my Visa card first. This resort was a horrible experience that I would never ever return to and I highly suggest people avoid this place like the plague.

We visited March 2023. I booked this hotel based on the water park pictures since we were traveling with kids. The water park was honestly the highlight of our trip and everyone working that area was amazing, fun to speak to. The kids enjoyed it. However, the adults did not share the same sentiment. All the restaurants were booked from the day we arrived until the day we were departing. We were forced to eat at the buffet daily until we complaint and were accommodated to eat at the worse restaurant they could have offered, the manager there was visibly not pleased with our presence and went above and beyond to ruin the night “ I lament not remembering his name”. He had an angry face, food was late, cold, poorly presented. Horrible experience. We also complained to manager Julio who lacks every once of customer service, he was mean, we just walked away. At the lobby upon arriving someone was introducing us the idea of buying into the resort, this, before we even knew where the restrooms were. Unbelievable, they are selling a product before we know the product. We meet staff whom we share our misery with and honesty tried to help. They were Elisa and Arthuro. They should both be promoted to managers. We travel once or twice a year. We would never recommend this place nor go back.

Do not stay here ! children endangered !
Do not stay here ! Especially if you have children! this is not a 5 star hotel! And should be removed from booking sites. I caught multiple staff members taking pictures and videos of my Kids and other kids sending them to who knows who on their iphones. Even when I told them do not take pictures of my children they do not have permission they continued to do so. We were asked to take a picture of our o n e year old daughter she was the best they seen. We experienced d r u g g ing at pool, and chemical burns from pool. This resort is not safe. We were afraid to drink and eat here ! The restaurants have no ac. Food highly processed in edible. There are no proper locks on rooms we did not sleep . Even with all this they will not refund ! I repeat do not stay here ! I have never felt so unsafe for my family. Reviews that are posted with good reviews are all fake! Beware!

Solo un día pudimos ir a un restaurante. Los demás siempre llenos y solo podíamos comer en el buffet. Solo se pueden sacar pocos empleados con buena actitud. Pero la mayoría no es cortés y siempre están molestos. Tremendo espacio pero mal trato a los huéspedes.

We were visiting Caracol already 3rd time with our daughters and grandchildren. We love it. Compering to other resorts Caracol is still able to retain and preserve its family and children focus, evening shows are kids oriented, artists - singers dancers craftsmen... still promoting original traditional Mexican culture. After shows guests are being cheerfully invited to massive dances with real Latino flavor. Even 1 day hurricane Ida restrictions were more like an adventure than hinderance. Staff and crisis management were more than excellent. Food drinks and care were securing all the safety measures. There were no excessive seaweeds and beach clean and was a great place to play and relax. Recreation-Animation team was active funny entertaining friendly and proactive. Jungle eco-setup and separating Aqua Parcs with huge water slides from main "party pool" is accommodating everybody's needs. We will come back to Caracol with our kids again. Thank you for memorable vacations.
