Everything was great. My friend had a bad fall and hurt herself badly. The staff was extremely helpful in getting an ambulance and helping with her care before they arrive.
Room was beautiful and clean.
Staff were all extremely helpful and nice.
Bar and restaurant service was great.
Beach view was spectacular and the pool looked over the ocean. A 10++. Only small problem was it was quite a distance from anything else but being all inclusive you really didn’t need anything else.

Our room and view were stunning! Everything was clean, staff were so friendly!! The beach was gorgeous with beautiful sand and easy walk in to the ocean.
Breakfast was delicious as were our other meals at their restaurant.
This hotel is a little out of the way but worth it!

Clean hotel, great staff, great food. Hotel needs some TLC but overall in good shape. Had issues with the hot water, sounds like it's a boiler/heat source issue, could be resolved with a new boiler. Front desk very helpful and easy to communicate with via WhatsApp or in person. Beautiful views, very quiet hotel. Great staff, great food. Great place if you are looking to relax.

First thing you should know is that a taxi from Cancun airport will be about $150 USD!! So plan for that.
Also…this is NOT a swingers resort which had me a bit worried after reading some reviews.
This is the perfect resort for a quick weekend and all you want to do is eat,drink and pool! A taxi to anywhere is very expensive.
The room is HUGE and very clean! The bed was very comfortable. The only issue we had was the water pressure in the shower.
We only ate in the dining room and the food was good. Omelette every morning and I had the fish every night..salmon, bass, mahi..all very good.
Definitely would stay here again for a quick weekend! If you want to see the area or even leave the resort I recommend renting a car! Easy to drive, no crazy drivers like you think.

We stayed at Senses by Artisan the 1st week of Dec 2025. The Service Staff like Chewie (nickname) and Pedro, keep the place alive. Its clean, the beaches are beautiful. The room and view were awesome, the beds are comfortable except the pillows(awful). Downside was the front desk staff, it always felt like we were bothering them. You do need to taxi or drive anywhere to see stuff but this didn't bother us. Overall, we enjoyed our stay.
