The property was nice I finally stayed here after looking at it several times. The rooftop pool is fun and gets pretty lively. The first time everyones really nice but then the male waiters up there can have some pretty nasty attitudes and make remarks about tipping, gestures, waving you off with their hands. So that part was pretty disappointing. Otherwise everything was great. Good food up at the pool and the restaurant. Lobby bar stays open til 1am, a short walk to the beach, walkable right by 5th Avenida… the spa was amazing, that hydrotherapy was excellent. I accepted the breakfast presentation to get the free massage, no big issue with that at all, my salesguy was nice and respectful and didnt get too aggressive. I would return!

The staff was nice and accommodating. There was a lot of noise due to construction and if you’re on the 4th floor you can hear the music from the rooftop and they will go late into the night too. Service at the restaurant was somewhat slow when ordering food but it was delicious.

Let’s be clear this is a hotel, not a resort! Location is great very close to downtown fifth avenue area and the room was very spacious. The staff at the rooftop are very unprofessional and the service is terrible. It takes thirty minutes until someone waits on your table, then another thirty minutes to receive already prepared food. They make you sign a bill for your order which is all inclusive. One member of the wait staff told me to “give him a tip” in which I did not, but once I checked out there was a balance for a tip that I did not approve. Water in the shower does not get hot, AC does not stay cold, no hooks in the bathroom to hang anything, pool is small, food is mediocre, and the restaurant is inconveniently placed in the center of the hotel rooms, you can hear the plates being stacked from your room. There are no towels in the fitness center and this hotel does not offer room service. My room was cleaned two times out of the 5 days I stayed. Very clean hotel; but I do not recommend.

Rotorhammering and construction below our room. No relaxation noise, noise, noise. From dishes clanking to rotor hammering and construction or the repetitive beat on the rooftop same songs playing over and over. Huge headache. Rooms smelt like mold. Spa no hot water jacuzzis all luke warm with one cold plunge. When asked to move they want you to pay more vacation cost way to much and not even beach front. Chairs and benches in restaurant all stained. Roof leaked in gym. Sink in room sprayed us every time we used it. I can’t make all the bad stuff up! Unreal!

Pros: 1) Staff are mostly very friendly, and very on top of their job. - I witnessed a staff member being harassed by a meathead, who threw his food on the floor like a 2 year old. Staff kept their cool and cleaned up the guys mess, honestly I wish they had thrown the bad guest out on the street. 2) Convenience, very close to 5th Ave & the beach. Great food options onsite. 3) Cleaning staff were AMAZING and honestly deserve recognition. 4) Add on the all inclusive, definitely worth it over all if you plan to eat onsite. Most of the food is AMAZING, A)Mexican restaurant - IT IS SO GOOD, the GAUC OMG. B) Italian - Bruschetta was GREAT, pastas also. C) Asia - Apps were good, mains were ok, deserts were to die for. D)The food on the rooftop was not great though, the flan tasted like it had been in a walk in fridge uncovered for 8 hours. The Nacho cheese was runny, watery and flavorless as well as the chicken. Cons: 1) The All-Inclusive is not fully all inclusive. Some menu items (steaks and certain sushi etc). are not included, but the majority of the menus are included and the food is GREAT. 2) Random fee's tagged on at checkout, amounted to under $10 so not upset, more so was annoyed that it wasn't communicated at booking OR check-in. 3) Internet/TV/Phone went down and was on and off working for a few days.

It’s a beautiful property with a modern feel. The room was spacious and very calming, nice bed. The all-inclusive food at the Mexican restaurant was excellent. Buffet breakfast very good. One of the servers and service the 1st night was below average (I reported it). The 1st morning I was awakened with a phone call at 9am (?!) by the concierge woman, offering me her services and help. This was completely inappropriate. They also run shuttles to their sister hotels with beaches. DO NOT go to Coco Beach. It’s ugly, and the environment is very downscale. The Playacar hotel partner is much nicer, and the beach is beautiful. Note that both sister properties have children. Also they’re 3 1/2 star hotels while Reef 28 is 4 1/2 stars. Go for the beach, but otherwise know they are lower-quality hotels.
