    Relaxation guaranteed

    Outstanding resort. Jungle atmosphere. Food excellent. Entertainment excellent just a great week away. Lovely beach but there are a few rocks. Hotel has created a bay for snorkeling. Lots of sun beds. Staff were on top of everything. Lots of a la Carte restaurants and buffets. We found the food to be great for us. Massive choice. Some reviews will tell you that you have to use an app to book restaurants in the evening. We found that the 2 of us would just turn up and we always got a table. Always. No complaints. Evening entertainment was staggering good. I have no negatives about this resort. Spider monkeys and iguana everywhere. Make sure you take a swim in the cenote and the kids have a water park. Don’t miss the fire show on Saturday night and the white partyclub night on Thursday at the beach. Bring the kids.

    The scenery is majestic

    Went on the romantic boat ride with Mariana. It was absolutely beautiful with so many turtles and birds to look at. We were provoded a bottle of bubbly and some desserts. It's 18+ and definitely a must do if you visit. Mariana greeted us with a smile. She brought music with us and let us know a few facts about the Jade River. She was the best guide.

    Mariana!!!

    Mariana was amazing! The boat ride was perfect for me and my girlfriend! We had nice drinks and some nice treats. The river was absolutely amazingly beautiful. We saw cute turtles and lots of fish! Would highly recommended to anyone staying at sandos!

    Beautiful resort, awful food!!

    We came here 3 years ago, and just back from our second trip. The grounds are beautiful, lovely cenotes and the river to snorkel or swim in, lots of wildlife, clean rooms and friendly staff. The food has really gone downhill since our last visit and it was impossible to book any restaurants as you have to do so via an app, but logon at midnight to make a reservation for the next day. Food was bland and reheated, get the adults only section if you can - much better. There are no showers now to use after you check out, toilets were shut as being cleaned but they did eventually open them so we could get changed. Rooms are basic but clean, beach is very rocky and doesn’t look like the pictures. Spa very expensive as is the shop on site ( extortionate prices!) beautiful resort but the food really lets it down so we wouldn’t come back anytime soon. Overall an enjoyable stay.

    One with Nature 💚

    It was a beautiful day to relax and enjoy nature. We enjoyed yummy treats and some champagne while we really enjoyed the lovely scenery. Lots of turtles, fish, and birds . Our captain Mariana was excellent! 💚 She pointed things out along the way! Would definitely recommend.
