When we first arrived, we booked a swim-out room, which was nice, but the rooms and parts of the resort definitely felt like they could use some updating. My biggest issue was the AC in our original room--it was barely working, and the first night was honestly uncomfortable. The humidity made it feel stuffy, and I had a hard time sleeping. Because of that, we decided to upgrade to the club/villa section on the opposite side of the resort--and that completely changed our experience. That area is much more secluded, quieter, and feels more upscale. We upgraded to a swim-out king room there, and it was beautiful--much newer, cleaner, and overall way more enjoyable. The private rooftop pool and more exclusive vibe made a huge difference for us. The food was actually really good, which was a pleasant surprise--no complaints there at all. Overall, I'd say this resort really depends on the room you book. If we had stayed in the original room, I probably would've rated it around a 3.5-4. But because we upgraded, we ended up having a great time. Tip: If you're considering staying here, I'd definitely recommend booking or upgrading to the club/villa section--it made all the difference for us.

We just wrapped up a four-day stay at Dreams Sapphire, and it was a fantastic trip. First off...the…read moreweather in Cancun this time of year is about as perfect as it gets, which definitely didn't hurt. The staff throughout the resort were incredibly friendly and courteous. Everywhere we went, people were welcoming and helpful, which really added to the overall experience. The rooms were clean and comfortable, and there was no shortage of food and drinks...something was always available no matter the time of day. The ocean did have some seaweed while we were there, but the resort staff clearly worked hard to manage it and keep things as clean as possible. One of the highlights was definitely the pool ...it might be one of the biggest and most fun pools we've experienced in Mexico. Plenty of space, great energy, and just an all-around good time. Overall, a great stay with a fun atmosphere, great service, and everything you need for a relaxing getaway. We'd definitely come back.

Their first note was agreeable but when Airbnb reached out that the choice was theirs, they only offered 50% refund even though they have an entire month and a half to still rent out. This is what greed looks like. I am now unable to stay with my family during a time of need and am forced to continue with travel plans given the inability to forgo this huge cost. Again, this is what greed looks like during a time the world needs the opposite. Not looking forward to the forced stay whatsoever.

We enjoyed the fact that it was so laid back, but with that being said we had wished that the bars around the pool stayed open past 5 pm and that they opened before 10 am. We love some mimosas and bloody Mary's in the morning, but unless you go to the restaurants for breakfast you are out of luck. The food was good, and the only complaints was that the pizza place is over where the kids play that is pretty far away from where we were and there were no pool side burger or taco places. They occasionally had a pop up that you could get food but it was specifically between 1-3. Don't get me wrong the pizza was great we just were not going to walk that far to wait an hour to get our pizza. Drinks were great and entertainment was good as well. We were there with the friends that were members, but after seeing the difficulties they were having we definitely will not be joining.

The north also had it's own charm, street vendors, Playa Norte (rated in the top 10 of the world's best beaches) plus it was also home to a phenomenal dulce de leche icecream, so much so I had 2 of them in about half hour

We were able to walk all the grounds and Daniel gave us all the amazing history and was able to answer all our questions- even the ones about the wildlife. When we retuned to the car he had a cooler with cold towels and a big variety of cold drinks for us. The excursion included lunch at a place of our choice and we asked for Daniel's suggestion as we wanted something local and not a tourist spot. He took us for some street tacos that were amazing! He was also kind enough to stop at a store so we could grab a few souvenirs and a mango stand for some fresh mango. Daniel was amazing and we will definitely use Living Dreams again and will be asking for Daniel!

I was told there were no other drivers and no flexibility the entire day which to me doesn't sound normal. While I understand policies exist, good companies know when to make exceptions.

We recently enjoyed it with dinner, which was a delicious fantasy come to life. Jungala has Latin America's longest lazy river and we had the best day there. It was such a convenience to charge our drinks and food to our room when we landed at the swimup bar. We really enjoyed the Infinity Pool, exclusively for GM members. The Jade Boutique has most everything you might need, from groceries to souvenirs. Be sure to check out the Monoi Coconut Fig lotion sold at Jade. It's the intoxicating lotion samples provided in the suite during your stay to help you relive the memories of your trip. We visited in early May. There were no crowds and the weather was great!

The staff were so so nice and accommodating. Super clean and so many wild animals and plants call it home, I can see why! The Coatis are the cutest and the iguana / lizards are huge and just hang out by the pool sunbathing. They had a water park on site, a huge PGA golf course, and also cirque's de soleil - "Joya" - the only one on the east coast of Mexico. The show was outstanding and highly recommended doing the dinner before the show! There are shuttles from place to place, but there is still a lot of walking. My favorite was the flamingos, and crocodile tour! The easiest way to navigate around is the Vidanta app. It was fun checking everyday to see the daily activities and where to eat (I also planned ahead before the trip). They had a lot of evening festivities and loved getting dressed up and having all the local food. All the pools have a bar which was so convenient. The main pool was near the beach and easy access to the water! They have a grocery mart with the best crepes, along with a gift shop and some snacks and food and alcohol. We went during Halloween week and they had everything set up for Halloween and also Dia De Los Muertos (Day of the Dead). It was gorgeous with the decorations. This resort is for time-share holders only! They had a lot of security to get in and out which made us feel safe that no one was wondering around. Your room key is a wristband which was good because we never lost our room key! Really have to give it up for the staff. Everyone was awesome & great!! Made a great memorable trip!!
