The hotel entryway was beautiful. It led to a false sense of expectation on the modernity of our room. The room was very old. It had chipped floors and very odd odor. Musty and moldy sort of smell. The water had an unpleasant odor as well. My wife didn’t mind it but it bothered me. The staff were fantastic. Everyone was attentive and kind. That was not issue. We were disappointed in how aggressive the sales people were in the hotel. If you’ve ever been to the D.R. in some hotels they’ll have booths set up with people camped out to sell you excursions. We fell for that in the Dominican but not in Mexico. When they finally realized we were not interested they left us alone. We didn’t realize when we booked the room it was connected to another hotel. After walking through the lobby of the other facility we got the sense the hotel was much nicer. That’s only an assumption based on the amenities available in the lobby. I can only assume the rooms were upgraded as well. The buffets were good. The contained a lot of variety. I believe anyone could find something to eat. We didn’t get sick from the buffets. We both ran into issues when we made reservations for the stand alone restaurants in the complex. My wife fell ill after eating a steak and I fell ill after eating shrimp and two different restaurants. She was sick while we were still on vacation where I made it home before I was out down for two days. In photos I want to highlight the beauty so I don’t solely focus on the negatives. We experienced Cancun and I don’t think we will go back. On to the next.

Avoid this hotel! It’s far from a 5-star experience. The hotel is dirty, the staff has a terrible attitude, and they clearly favor locals over foreigners. The food is awful, and you’ll often have to wait in long lines for basic things like coffee or beach chairs. They also don’t refill the minibar after the first day, and room cleaning is hit or miss.
Additionally, they charge hidden fees that are not mentioned on their website, such as a government fee and a service fee, adding an extra $300 to your 7-day stay. The rooms are poorly maintained, with moldy smells and dirty linens. When I complained, the staff ignored me and even told me they didn’t care about bad reviews because they buy good ones.
Over the course of my stay, some servers even offered me drugs or women for the night. One of the names I’ve mentioned in the review made this offer directly to me.
I also found a mustache hair in their pizza. When I told them, they just laughed and smiled, showing no care at all. The next day, when I complained to the supervisor, he acted like he couldn’t care less, listening to me as if I were saying something insignificant and just wanted to get rid of me.
All of a sudden, you wake up, go for breakfast, and see a sign that says the restaurant is closed for maintenance—without any prior notice. You have to go to another restaurant and wait in a long line because two or three of their restaurants are under service, again with no notice. When you complain, they simply ignore you. They don’t care, they don’t listen, and their staff don’t speak English—they only speak Spanish, so when you try to communicate in English, they don’t understand you.
I’m mentioning again, this hotel is good only for people in Cancun, for the local people. This is not good for foreigners.
This hotel ruined my vacation, and I would not recommend it to anyone. Stay away!

We would not return. We did like the location on the beach, it wasn't the Ocean side, but the "lagoon". It was calm, warm and they have hammocks in the water, which are 5/5 comfortable. Could spend the whole day in those hammocks. It is right next to a little channel so you can watch boats all day. There is more rocks on the Sens side of the beach. The grand oasis palms beach definitely is nicer. It is quiet as most people with kids are in the other adjoining resort so that was nice. Don't go see the concierge after checking in. They will tell you where everything is then say you have a welcome gift which is a time share presentation that I heard tons of ppl falling for to get a free massage or ride on the pirate ship. If you do stay here, immediately download their app and put in a request for supper at one of the restaurants as you need a reservation as the buffets suck. The staff are all friendly, I would recommend learning more Spanish than your basic hello and thank you as the resort is definitely catering to Spanish speakers.
Don't let children shower, only bath. They will get burnt by the water. The power went out in the middle of the night and didn't return until supper. No air conditioning!
I got food poisoning. The buffets are so gross and weird. Juices are just flavored water.
You have to download an app to book for supper. There is no evening snacks so eat supper late.
Overall wouldn't recommend and definitely not worth paying more to stay at the Sens rather than the adjoining grand oasis palm.
All activities are next door so if you want to watch shows go next door.
The pool has sharp pieces so watch your knees.
The pillows in the rooms are flatter than a crepe.
If you have a vision impairment or traveling with someone who has any sort of vision impairment then book elsewhere. There are a lot of steps up and down, glass doors, and mirrors everywhere. This didn't bother myself but my spouse has limited vision and this place was hell for him.
From what I can tell it is wheelchair accessible if you need that.

Disappointing Experience – Rude Staff & Serious Health Concerns
Our stay at this hotel was extremely disappointing, and I would not recommend it to anyone.
From the moment we arrived, the reception staff were incredibly rude. There was no warm welcome—just an unfriendly and unhelpful attitude.
The worst part of our stay was that all four of us (coming from different cities) got food poisoning after eating at the hotel. When we informed customer service, they denied any responsibility and repeatedly told us that we needed to pay for a doctor because it was "not their fault." We were in pain, and not once did they even express concern or apologize for our condition. When the doctor arrived, he diagnosed us with gastro without even performing a test, making it clear they were more focused on protecting themselves rather than caring for their guests.
As for the facilities:
The beach is large, but the sea is small since it is a boat entrance area. You can barely swim—just step into the water.
The room was unhygienic, with sheets that smelled bad.
Worst of all, we even found a cockroach in the room—completely unacceptable for a hotel of this standard.
Overall, this was an awful experience. Poor customer service, unclean rooms, and serious health risks make this hotel a place to avoid at all costs.

My First time in Cancun. We had a great experience after figuring out our way around. Lots to do at the resort. Highly recommend booking your dinners and activities and if you have any issues see the customer service as they are very friendly. Thank you to Jaime Pat and Sir Pablo Andres who made our stay absolutely amazing after meeting them. Pablo Andres checked on us every day to make sure things are well and I greatly appreciate it.
