Alfredo V. Bonfil Hotel Guide - Hotels with Pool in Alfredo V. Bonfil, Cancun

"Very nice. "

"Food was good. Pools were in bad shape or under construction. "

"Lots of good things, but I don't think I will recommend to my friends and family due to some bad parts. THE GOOD 1. Premium finishes throughout 2. Great pools and poolside entertainment and amenities 3. Most staff are very friendly and helpful NOT SO GOOD 1. I received $750 worth of "resort credits," which is a fancy way of saying I prepaid for tours and I never ended up taking or using. The one tour I did end up taking did not accept my "resort credits." The four spa treatments I tried to schedule were never responded to/scheduled by an agent. 2. When you need something from the concierge or tour desk, it's going to take a long time. Nothing works like clockwork. E.g., 1 hour to get a tour booked, with about 20 minutes just on hold. It's like a factory that still hasn't developed repeatable processes. 3. Discovered what *appeared* to be two different drug stashes just offshore the hotel beaches. What do I mean by that? Well, imagine playing in the water 40 feet off a beach with your family and you step on something squishy. You pull up a brick sized thermo-sealed plastic bag full of fine grains or powder. Then you pull up 2 more from the same spot. Then, 200 yards down the beach, you find another similar stash. I have never experienced this before. 4. Brings out some unethical behavior in guests and staff. On at least two occasions, I saw guests jump lines, or get in yelling fights, and instead of guiding guests to proper behavior, the staff just tolerated it."

"Comfortable rooms. Sometimes a bit loud at night with the entertainment. Overall good food and restaurants. "

"Everything was stellar. Staff, room, pool and the meals. Have stayed there many times and will be sure to return. "

"The rooms were very clean and nice. All the staff was very friendly and attentive. The beach was great and they did a good job of cleaning up any sargassum that washed up. The resort is very family friendly and the kids section was nice and the pool there was great as well. Only thing is if the resort had more activities or shows or something else to do it would be even better. "

"Cleaned"

"This was a great resort! Had a very good experience! Clean! Plenty of food! "

"We’ve been to 3 separate RIU locations and this was by far our least favorite. However, I think this is a case of you get what you pay for and realizing this is more of a younger demographic party resort. The rooms are very basic and outdated. The themed restaurants are only open for dinner whereas at other RIUs they are open for lunch as well. Otherwise you are stuck with the buffet, which was lacking more costly items like seafood. I really missed the piles of shrimp, mussels, crab, etc that were at other RIU buffets, or the larger seafood plate offerings even at the restaurants (more than just a skewer of shrimp on your steak). You had to take a 10 min shuttle (it was free though!) to go to and from every themed RIU party located at an affiliated RIU. Sadly no room service was available, and no Café with pastries. A lot of this makes sense since the main customers we came across were younger college kids clearly just coming to party, who may not care so much about these amenities. Nonetheless… The view from our room was beautiful, we loved viewing the lighthouse across the way each night, the beach was nice and clean for swimming, and the shows and activities at the resort were very good. The staff were friendly, accommodating, and pretty attentive to the unruly overly-intoxicated kids. Unfortunately we ran in to too many of those during our stay and less 34+ year olds like ourselves. Overall, it was a clean pretty well kept resort & we had a nice time soaking up the sun. "
