The staff very nice, the beach is absolutly beautiful, the pools and the bars were 7 out of 10. My recommendation is to improve the variety of food at the bufet. Overall, very nice place to stay.

It is good for the price but it was not what I expected It's good for the price but it wasn't what I expected () the beach is beautiful but the service lacks a lot to be good, many people who work there…it seems that they don't like what they do and they treat you as if they were doing a please when serving you since you don't pay anything cheap for that attention ... otherwise the restaurants are good, most of them were buffet ... very rare à la carte I was 5 days and of the 5 only 2 days I could eat à la carte ... yes I recommend if you want to go to a nice beach

This hotel is overall terrible. My expectations were completely destroyed as soon as I walked through the door of the hotel. Just to give you an idea, there is no ac in the hotel. I did not like anything, this hotel is horrible. They should shut it down right now. In fact, they are shutting it down in a week. This is completely unacceptable. There were only 2 restaurants that were available to eat at and the rest were all closed. The only thing that was OK about this hotel was the staff. Some of them were really polite and understanding. While the others had bad tempers and gave bad service. They shouldn’t allow any more reservations for this hotel. Overall I had a horrible stay.

The staff were mostly friendly and accomodating. When you’re lounging by the pool area they never fail to ask if you want any drinks. They appoach you and ask even if you’re not calling them. Excellent Customer Service! I love how the resort is layed out. They have 3 olympic size pools. HUGE pools which were not stingied. The swim up bar is very cool and refreshing. The bartender was friendly and would always ask if you want any more drinks. As you enter the hotel, the lobby is huge! I like it because its refreshing although AC is not running in this area as they are using natural breeze. They have one Buffet resto called “ Carnival buffet” it serves breakfast lunch and dinner. Food was okay.They also have Mexican resto, Italian resto, French resto, and the Barefoot grill that serves American burgers, fries, Hotdogs, etc They also have Japanese/Chinese resto that serves Asian foods. I read reviews about this resort before we came. To be fair, some reviews were exagerated. This is not a newly built resort and you will notice the rooms need updating. But for the prize it offers one should not expect a five star physical look of the property. I think it is only fair for the resort. I mean they’re Gym is fully updated, very clean, and have the most fantastic view ive ever seen in my travels! The threadmills and ellipticals were facing the sparkly green clear waters of the Mexican Carribean! I went to their gym daily. Over all, we had a relaxing, comfortable stay!!!

I don’t know even where to start. This hotel is disgusting, some of the staff was rude, I even found 2 cockroaches in my room once I arrived. The pool is literally falling apart, the only positive thing I can say about this place that the beach was beautiful, but that’s it. I will never stay at this hotel again. Not ideal to stay with your family. Definitely staying somewhere else next time I decide to go to Cancun.

The hotel's location was superb and the staff had a pleasant demeanor. Unfortunately, the check-in process took a lengthy two hours, and it took an additional hour and a half for our luggage to arrive. Despite our eagerness to dine at three different restaurants, we were denied due to weather conditions. The food quality was subpar, and the drinks were unsatisfactory with a rating of 3 out of 10. The drinks were diluted and contained artificial flavors. The bed had some stains that were questionable, and the building was out of date.

Hotel is worn down which explains some of the things that went wrong during our stay. However, it does not have to equal to the hotel being extremely dirty and not well mantained. We got there on a Monday afternoon and after being wowed by the views it was clear that cleanliness was not taken seriously at the hotel. All drinks were pretty much watered down, which is expected at all-inclusive but having stayed at many all-incl.. we could tell they were really forcing it. There was no chairs in our rooms so we asked for one and they brought us two chairs with severe stains visible from a mile away. Tried to move us to a different room and that one was even worst… even hotel employees told us customers have been complaining a whole lot. We lasted the night because we were going to get charge for it as penalty but transferred to another hotel next morning… best thing we ever did in Cancun was getting out of this hotel.

Now Emerald was Awesome. I’m so happy I booked here after reading the reviews. Cons: Older property, Clean enough for standard, too many stairs, I have bad knees, they did not stop me from enjoying myself. Pros: The atmosphere of the hotel, beach location, and customer service make this hotel Awesome. They want you to have a great time and I did. Adult pool and smoking section was Awesome and was my spot. There are Lots of pools and a swim up bar. I went to the beach twice a day, the only thing that kept me away for the beautiful sandy salt water was the stairs but once down there it was worth it. The Buffet was okay, normal. The Restaurants were very good, lots of food options and the drinks were nice and strong and they make sure to keep them coming. I loved that part. I would recommend this hotel and visit it again in a heartbeat. I made lots of friends. I did not want to leave Now Emerald.
