I had a wonderful stay at The Reef 28 Hotel. The facilities were super clean. The staff were all very courteous and kind. They were always ready to help at a moment's notice. The amenities were also a great perk of this hotel. I loved the rooftop pool, it gave beach club vibes. The location was very convenient to everything as well. 11/10 definitely recommend.

This was the first time my boyfriend and I stayed at this hotel. The pre-registration process was seamless, though it did require more information than we’re accustomed to providing at other resorts. Check-in was relatively easy, and the employee who assisted us was genuinely kind, especially considering we requested a room change due to the noise level outside of our initial room. The restaurants were unexceptional overall; however, we did enjoy the rooftop restaurant. One suggestion would be to add a buffet-style option to complement the existing dining choices. In-room USB charging ports would be a welcome addition, particularly for international visitors who use 220-volt plugs. The highlight of our stay was definitely the rooftop bar and pool area. With the DJ, drinks, and food, it created a very pleasant and enjoyable atmosphere. Exceptional employees-Stephanie, Roberto, and Freddy, made dining and lounging by the pool an absolute delight. All in all, the hotel was cozy, accommodating, and friendly.

The food and service aren’t great .. all inclusive .. there are stars next to all the food we wanted to order .. Star Means there’s a charge for those items. The hotel is clean. Rooms are spacious. Rooftop is awesome. Drinks are SO watered down .. barely any alcohol in them and only the CHEAPEST alcohol is included. Location is great. Service isn’t. You’re lucky if they clean your room every day. We could NOT contact the hotel before our trip.. no response to emails. They don’t answer calls. The phone in the room doesn’t work.. You have to go down for everything! They said they would fix the phone and they didn’t. So you don’t bother the front desk, they don’t fix the phones. The NOISE OUTSIDE, made us loose so much sleep! Partying and CONSTRUCTION. The food got very repetitive. 2 restaurants and a rooftop. You need reservations for the restaurants or you’ll have to wait. No room service. They are not super friendly. They won’t go out of their way for you at all. The location is great, but too loud. Bring a bar soap and conditioner.

The hotel was very pretty and the room was large. Rooftop was cute and food was pretty good overall. The staff were nice but many seemed confused as I would get different responses from people. They were strict about reservations even if the restaurant was empty. The spa was very cute and relaxing. Prices were reasonable. The pool and sauna were on the colder side. Location was great but loud. Beach is a close walk and beautiful.

Only complaint to make it not 5 stars was the fact that there was a bar right next door & since the patio has a glass door, Bad bunny was blaring into our room all night.

For the price and claim of the hotel, it did not feel luxurious at all. Bad smell in the room, meals that had barely any vegetarian options. We were also greeted by payment of another 50$ when we got to the hotel, which was not mentioned in the booking process. We wished to work out on the gym, which is said to he open 24hours a day in the website, but actually closes at 21. The staff seemed very close minded to help…

The hotel is very nice, and most of the staff are friendly and welcoming. However, the all-inclusive option is somewhat misleading. The restaurant menus have very limited choices for all-inclusive guests, and all restaurants close at 10 p.m., leaving no food options if you’re hungry later. In addition, even with the all-inclusive package, there is a $15 USD fee to access the sister hotel. Overall, we enjoyed our stay, but the restricted restaurant menus were quite disappointing

Biggest advantage of this place is the rooftop. Nice pool, lots of lounge chairs, ocean views, it's great. The rooms are average. Good size, but some issues (faulty toilet, patio door didn't lock). But generally comfortable. Location is central and walkable to many fun restaurants. Can be very noisy on some nights, especially with a room facing the street since there is a night club that will blast music into late at night (at least on the weekend).
