Felt like we hit it out of the park at the resort. Super laid back and on one of the best and most beautiful beaches on the pacific side. Breakfast was great, bars had fun drinks, pool was spacious and great for the kids… and again, proximity and location to the beach was the highlight. Results were like the pictures and the staff was accommodating and friendly.

Overall we had a good stay. What I loved was the chicken alfredo at the italian restaurant, the service and friendliness of the staff (I have never commented on service in my life as it's not a priority for me, but they were just so friendly and helpful, it really stood out), and the safety of the area. What I didn't like was no bacon at breakfast, they don't supply drinks in the mini fridge (we did ask for extra sodas while we were eating that we took back to the room), and the beach is across the street (it's a small road with zero traffic, so it was close and safe). I am used to staying in all inclusive resorts in cancun and cozumel, so that's what I'm comparing this place to. It was much much smaller, but I still didn't want for anything except a soda at night and bacon at breakfast. Everything else was easily accessible, and it was a pleasant experience.

Absolutely loved Margaritaville!!!! The resort is beautiful, the beach is amazing, and the swim up bar is the best!!! We spent 4 nights here and had amazing time. We played tennis in the evenings, the game room was a super fun way for my family to have some friendly ping pong tournaments and the rooms were very nice, Only negative thing i would say is the double beds are not big enough for 2 adults.

The property was really nice and had everything we would want. The breakfasts were outstanding. My only complaint is the location, which was fairly isolated and without a car, there was not a lot to do in the area.
