Honeymooners and romantic travelers appreciated the cleanliness and the comfortable beds at the resort. The resort's service was commended, with the staff being friendly and helpful throughout the stay. The food offerings, particularly at the B-Loved restaurant and the a-la-carte, were a highlight for many. The resort's activities, including snorkeling and walking to the nearby marina, were enjoyed by couples. The modern rooms, especially the Privilege Premium Deluxe room, with their cleanliness and amenities, were also praised.
Service from bar staff was below average. They are quite rude and tend to ignore you, we spent way too much time just waiting for service on a few occasions(up to 20 mins while they argue amongst each other). Resort is beautiful and the servers in the restaurants are great....

Read Full ReviewMy girlfriend and I traveled here for a week in late April, 2025. We stayed 6 days and booked privileged. We stayed on the Riviera Maya side. While they list Yucatan Beach as a separate resort, all guests and staff treat both sides as one resort. I have been back...

Read Full ReviewOur Privileged suite was really nice and roomy. Enjoyed the tub! Pool side service was non-existent, which was disappointing. Irving from entertainment and Saul from the Mercado Buffet stood out from the rest. Night entertainment was a lot of fun!
This was our 13th trip to Catalonia Riviera Maya and we are already planning our 14th visit in October. We were not disappointed in the least. As usual the staff were amazing and really go out of their way to make your visit enjoyable. After reading some of the negative...
Read Full ReviewVery friendly staff. Comfortable resort. No elevators. Food at buffet is average. Specialty restaurants, food was better. Have to make reservations. There isnt a beach to stroll. Three good size pools. No night life after 9:30pm unless you go to the disco.
We arrived back today from 11 nights at the hotel. Due to the reviews we upgraded (cost £60 in total via Tui). Upon arrival cases are stored while you check into reception. You get a bracelet that is your room key and towel cards within an envelope that has a...
