The staff during our vacation was excellent! This is a very small resort so there were limited dining and bar locations. Bars staff and drinks were excellent, however. Food was poor, but again the staff was excellent.

Over all a great stay. Clean, Beautiful,food was good, ocean was ruff in this area and entertainment could have been a little better but for the price it was great. We upgraded to the elite but didn’t think that was worth the cost. Not enough amenity for the cost. Mainly just higher end alcohol and separate eating areas. Would have liked more service by the pool especially with the elite area. There was one waiter for everyone so took a while and they didn’t serve food. Peppe grill was amazing food and loved the dinner at Krystal! Staff were amazing!

I really enjoyed my time at the Kukulkan. The property was very clean and well maintained. It also has a nice vibe as a smaller resort (which I prefer). I would say that if you are looking for excitement and want to party and get hammered every day, then this might not be the place for you. It is rather chill in my opinion. The food was good. I ate mostly at the buffet, but did indulge at the steak and Mexican restaurants. Both were pretty good! They have nightly entertainment at their theater... with very talented cast members. They also had featured drink stations positioned around the main lobby area along with the regular bar. The coffee bar is nice as well... visited daily! The pool areas were great... never had a problem with seating! There is no need to be there at 7:00AM to get a seat. I walked right up at various times and always found a good chair. They have plenty of games/activities at the "party" pool to keep you occupied while tanning/swimming. The staff was awesome and always present... no matter where I was. They were always quick to offer a drink or anything else I might need. If I was forced to come up with something negative, it would be the fact that when I booked the trip through Expedia, I was given an $850 spa credit. When I investigated it, there are different amounts of discounts off of select services. For example, a one hour massage was something like $215, but with the credit, I could get it for $200. Overall, it was great!

We were pretty bummed out about only having access to one restaurant and the snack bar. But over all, we had a great time. Thank you Kukulkan team.
