Read it your way
This adults-only all-inclusive resort sits right on the beach and just a block away from the bustling Quinta Avenida. Guests consistently highlight the exceptional staff service, oceanview balconies perched over the water, and quality a la carte meals like Zarape. However, reviewers note that standard regular rooms are quite small compared to junior suites, and the poolside pizza place receives criticism. 1061217

- Guests consistently praise the staff, describing the service as attentive and among the best resort hospitality experiences in the area. 1012

Food

- “I was shocked the Mexican food was so good at Zarape; usually I wind up disliking my meals at Mexican a la cartes at all-inclusive resorts because they try too hard to tone down the spice and make it too "Americanized". Zarape's food was excellent, and if I were to have stayed longer I would have definitely returned to this restaurant multiple times.” 6
- “The food was so good, and the service very attentive - we could have easily been at a restaurant in Italy. I highly recommend the ravioli and the appetizers.” 10

Food17 mentions
- “No, in fact they have great food and decent drinks.” 17
- “Off The Hook offered sushi and nikkei menu items (nikkei is a Peruvian-Japanese fusion dish); I only had sushi and it was very good. You know the dishes are fresh since you could observe a chef preparing food at one end of the restaurant.” 6
- “Worst food poisoning of my life” 19
- “The food was so good, and the service very attentive - we could have easily been at a restaurant in Italy. I highly recommend the ravioli and the appetizers.” 10
- “I had a great time at this resort; its location was stellar and the food and drink options were very good.” 6
- “Or, you can find pizza to go poolside at La Pizzeria; I would skip that one because I didn't think the pizza was very good at all. However, how good or bad food tastes can be very subjective so you may like it, but I had a couple of bites and thought it was not worth eating.” 6
- “Just be aware that the main pool has no swim-up bar, instead it is up on the rooftop area along with a small Asian restaurant/sushi counter which was not that bad for Mexican sushi.” 17
- “For grilled meats and other specialties, Brasas stands out. It gives a modern twist to traditional Mexican dishes that are served directly from the grill to the plate. Open from 6 PM to 10 PM, it's a perfect spot for dinner on the resort's ground floor.” 10
- “Whether it's your black coffee daily dose or a sophisticated brew, you can enjoy your drink by the bar, pool, or in a comfy cabana with a book. I loved that they also served dairy-free options - my favorite? An oat milk caramel macchiato!” 10
- “The variety and quality are really good for being a buffet. We especially loved the breakfast here. So many dishes to try, and they have the most amazing juice bar with 10+ different types of juices and smoothies.” 10
- “This rooftop sushi bar serves a wide variety of sushi rolls that can be enjoyed by the pool and with a cool drink. Weather permitting, it opens from 11 AM to 6 PM, so it's a perfect spot for lunch or to satiate a mid-afternoon sushi craving.” 10
- “There was one buffet, Ventanas, which was open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I only ate breakfast there, so I can't speak to their food options at other meals, but there was an extensive offering considering there wasn't a whole lot of space in this restaurant.” 6
- “I was shocked the Mexican food was so good at Zarape; usually I wind up disliking my meals at Mexican a la cartes at all-inclusive resorts because they try too hard to tone down the spice and make it too "Americanized". Zarape's food was excellent, and if I were to have stayed longer I would have definitely returned to this restaurant multiple times.” 6
- “ayresd54 • 1mo ago I'd say. It's a small resort, but the food is great and the staff really work hard. As long as you're not going for the beach, you're good” 17
- “Bella's food was very good, I had the Risotto Al Funghi for my main dish (I had read on resort reviews this was a great dinner choice), and thought it was good but not outstanding.” 6
- “Weather permitting, it opens from 11 AM to 6 PM, so it's a perfect spot for lunch or to satiate a mid-afternoon sushi craving. This is not your typical so-and-so resort sushi - it's actually really good quality sushi! You can also ask for sashimi.” 10
