It was Hotter than Hell! The concert was amazing with great sound and stage setup! Love how turf was laid down over the lawn and very clean surroundings. I knocked stars off because the casino bathrooms were out of toilet paper and needed cleaning. Plus the hotel room walls are so thin that I could even hear the neighbor cough, laugh, every word of their conversation & even when they used the bathroom which was annoying! This was all night long! I won't be sleeping here again if it's my choice!

The cabins are abit rundown, think hunting cabin, but their is AC and hot water!. The cabins are less than 100ft from the water an if you have. Boat you can roll it right up to the bank next to your cabin. At less than 50 bucks a night it's not a bad deal an the view is excellent! The campsite is at the end of a farm road so theirs no traffic other than other campers an bring your side by side or four wheeler! I do recommend this place, just make sure to bring groceries an such as the town of Broaddus doesn't have much.

I stayed at Whispering Creek Motel and RV park on September 16, 2012. This secluded private motel…read moreand RV Park has 10 rooms and 28 RV parking spaces with 30 amp and 50 amp service. The staff is exceptionally friendly and accommodating and the rates are reasonable. I stayed in room 208 and found the room comfortable and clean. This place isn t fancy, it is rustic. peaceful and comfortable. The camp owner took me on a tour of the facility and showed me the Club House which would be perfect for family reunions, parties, baby showers or wedding receptions. There is also a 26 acre walking trail/Disc Golf Course which is surrounded by majestic pine trees and a meandering creek. The room itself had a king sized bed which was comfy and large fluffy pillows. I slept great. The gentle rain outside didn t hurt either. The bathroom was clean and the showers are hot and had good water pressure. There was a laundry room for guests which was a nice amenity. The office/gift shop has a variety of snacks and toiletries as well as souvenirs and even clothing and trinkets. All motel guests are invited to a complimentary continental breakfast with cereals, pastries, coffee and juice. The staff was very nice and even offered to make me some fresh buttered toast to go along with my delicious hot morning coffee. I recommend Whispering Creek for anyone traveling through or around Newton, TX. It is nicer and more peaceful than the places closer to town and the management team strives to make everyone fell like a welcome guest. I will definitely stay here again and wholeheartedly recommend it.

Everyone loved the Rustic atmosphere. The kitchen is roomy, with a large dining area & family den where everyone could gather and visit. There are two bedrooms downstairs, one with a queen bed (the grandmothers took that one), one with four twin beds and a bunk bed, so six family members could comfortably sleep there. There is also a large bathroom with big mirrors & two sinks, so everyone could get ready for our event. Upstairs has a long dormitory style room with six twin beds & a couch. There is also a large closet, bathroom, and washer & dryer. The place was perfect! Our family from Missouri, Illinois, Texas & South Africa was enchanted with the tall pine trees, the friendly cats, dogs, and horses on the property. You just need to bring food if you plan to cook in the cabin, and toiletries, as none are provided. Don't forget salt & pepper like we did, but if you do, there is a convenience store at FM1275 & Loop 224 that has everything!

Most of our party's dinner plates came with a trip to the salad bar however they seemed to have trouble keeping it stocked and once they would restock it would be out within minutes. The food was correct when brought our and the portions we're a good size. I had the catfish plate which had like 8 pieces of fish and two hush puppies and fries. It was good, nothing to write home about though. Liked that it was on the lake so there was a nice view.

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Horseshoe. It was certainly much quieter than nearby casinos…read morebut I was also there on a Monday evening/Tuesday morning so that may have made a difference. The room: check in was incredibly easy and they have a kiosk for self-service. The room itself was clean, spacious, and had all the typical ammenties one would look for. I assume most people who stay at casino hotels don't aoend too much time in the room, but if one did want to do that then this is a great choice. The bed was nice and soft, pillows fluffy, and the bathroom was spacious. The gym was a typical hotel gym. There was an elliptical, bike, treadmill, and a bench with weights. I only used the treadmill, which seemed a bit old but did its job just fine. Downstairs you will find a Dunkin and pizza place. The Dunkin was perfect for a quick breakfast. The egg bites came out piping hot and were delicious. The latte was standard. The customer service was great. The pizza place is meh. Thick crust, thick layer if cheese, not many toppings. I would skip this next time. The casino itself was quiet but it was a lot of fun. I found a blackjack table and the dealer was super nice and taught me the rules. I had a great time.

So I chose this place strategically because it's 45 mins outside of Cancun. I'm one for adventures…read moreso staying at an all-inclusive off the beaten trail made sense to me. However, I will say that if you're an active Fitbit user... you will get your steps in here! The resort is spread out so you'll do a lot of walking but if you're not up for it... just wait by any of shuttle signs and you will eat picked up by the passenger go-carts that drive around frequently. We were shuttled to our room and every building has a concierge during the day if you have questions on getting around or questions regarding your room. The rooms are a nice size and the view was amazing. The only set back is, if you're on the bottom floor then you may have some furry visitors as there are animals on the property. But no worries, don't bother them and they won't bother you...simple as that. Housekeeping cleans the rooms daily, this is a requirement and it says so on their website. There is a safe available in the room if you would like to lock away your valuables, but the housekeeping staff is nice and we were gifted with a new towel animal daily. They have nightly free shows and the sports bar (black&white bar) is 24 hours. The Festival restaurant is buffet style and open for breakfast, lunch and dinner. The resort has other cuisine specific restaurants but you will need to visit he lobby to make a reservation, same day is fine as long as the reservation is before 5 PM. For late night snackers (or if you're like us... if you need a burger after shots at the beach bar) then visit Don Ista (located behind the Festival) between 11p-1am for a burger or hot dog. If you're comfortable enough then you can grab a taxi and visit 5th avenue in Playa Del Carmen... it's about 15-20 mins away from the resort and cost us $30 USD. 5th Ave offers shopping, restaurants and Starbucks if you're really in need (lol). Overall, there are plenty of resorts available that are closer to Cancun. But I challenge visitors to explore the resorts in the direction of Playa del Carmen, including this one.

One of the most beautiful hotels I have ever stayed in. Located about 40 minutes from Cancun…read moreInternational airport and about 20 minutes from Playa del Carmen, this one of kind resort is not only immense in size, but It is all inclusive as well. After about a minute of driving up to the hotel lobby grand entrance, you are immediately greeted by the friendly staff that is eager to help you with your bags. The entrance in itself if spectacular with huge fountains and a great open rotunda type reception area. After our bags were taken, my boyfriend and I headed immediately for the nearest bar which was the sports bar. This bar is directly located to the right of the reception and this is also where the dinner and a show takes place every night. This is also one of the few areas in the hotel that you can get FREE WiFi without paying $5 bucks every hour. Now as for the rooms, they are a bit of hike away from the reception lobby, but they are so worth the walk. Extremely spacious and all single rooms include a California kind bed, FREE mini beer bar that is stocked with beer and soda (this is also replenished everyday) and a huge shower with a rain shower head. I also forgot to mention that this resort is one of the few in Mexico that is completely GREEN. This means that all of the lighting in the rooms can only be turned by putting your room key in a slot by the front door. The lights will shut off once you remove your key. These keys are extremely sensitive to sun and water so keep them in a dry area (we got locked out twice because the card got too hot.) One of the best features of this hotel is the pool area. Blue Bay has about 5 different pools that are all connected to one another. Lounge chairs are pretty tricky to get here because you have to wake up at the crack of ass in order to "reserve" your chair. So wake up early to avoid searching for a non exist ant chair around 11am-4pm. The pool area has has two bars on either end. One is a great round swing bar that actually has swings around it. This by far was my favorite bar just because of the chairs. There is also another bar behind the steakhouse on the beach that is for VI P's from 10am-5pm, but if you get lucky like we did you can sneak in if there is no watch guard. This bar has the top shelf liquor and the best bartender! Ask for Wilbert he will hook you up. The food was pretty good for an all inclusive resort. Blue Bay Esmeralda has 6 restaurants which include Mexican, Oriental, a Steakhouse, Italian and Seafood. In addition to these they have two buffets and the sports bar. The best one was hands down the Mexican restaurant. It had a great atmosphere and the food was delicious. The buffet for breakfast is great. They have everything from huevos rancheros cooked right in front of you to something as plain as yogurt. There is definitely something for every ones taste. Another amazing treat at this resort is the amazing staff. These workers work 12 hour shifts and still manage to keep a smile on their face. They are truly what makes this experience so wonderful. I recommend tipping at least $3 because to them that goes a long way. Unfortunately most of the hotel guests were not as gracious with their tip giving. If you have the extra cash, I recommend spending it in the spa. This spa is truly a dream. It is completely outdoors, and has pools, saunas and massage rooms. The massages are a bit pricey about $160 for the cheapest one hour massage to be exact, but again if you have the flow definitely come here and get a massage. If you only want to use the facilities it is $30 for all day. This resort is something out of a dream and I cannot recommend this place enough. If you're thinking about staying in the Riviera Maya definitely stay here you will not regret it.

One thing I love about this place is it's less than 10 minutes from Lake Naconiche. (That lake is a bass fisherman's dream) This place has great cabins and numerous RV spots. There's also a nice pond (mini-lake actually) on the premises where you can fish, kayak, and swim. It's stocked with Largemouth, Crappie, Bluegill and Catfish. It's a strict C&R pond. The cabin we stayed in will house a small family comfortably. The cabins come with fully functioning kitchens (with dishes and cookware) and are kept cool in the summer with multiple air conditioners. Renee (one of the owners) is always available to answer questions or provide you with help to insure your stay is as enjoyable as possible. If you're looking to getaway for the weekend, this is the place to stay. You'll enjoy the comfort and great scenery.
