Navíos was nothing short of amazing!…read more My big baby and I went on our first (of many) vacation to Cancun. While there we picked three nice restaurants to try and Navíos was one of them. Ambiance is gorgeous. On the bay, this gorgeous restaurant is sexy and giving out door classy if that makes sense. Customer service was outstanding and the servers were super friendly. My big baby doesn't speak a lick of Spanish and they spoke English which was great. For all you non Spanish speaking people, have no fear they speak English too. Loved the Alligator sign as it did make the visit exciting, I really wanted to see one come near us but no luck as those visitors are night time party animals. Let's get into it! We are in Mexico where chips and salsa are complimentary! They were so good and the salsas were delicious. Who needs a real app when you have these! Shrimp Alfredo - It was good! Fish of the day - (native to the waters from there) He loved it! Dessert- We passed! Being on the bay there are tons of mosquitoes. We had to make a fast break to our hotel. Although the food was good we would likely never choose a restaurant with outdoor seating as this proved to be a bit of a challenge. They did have off which helped. The only thing I like biting me while on a lovely vacay is my lover! No bueno to the mosquitoes. Side note: No stars off! The place is gorgeous and food was great!

What do you expect when you're in Mexico?? I ordered the hanger steak and asked for medium rare. When it came, it was the skinniest piece of steak I've ever seen, maybe like 1cm thin! I was for sure thinking it was overcooked... To my surprise, it was rare and undercooked. I kindly asked them to recook it and I asked for medium instead. They brought me another one and it was better. Other than that mishap, my family enjoyed our time there. The desserts were all very good too. My favorites were the corn pound cake and the churros which came in a cute stand with both a chocolate and caramel dipping sauce. The Tres Leches was pretty good too but I've had better elsewhere. We came on a Wednesday night and there was the mariachi band playing. I believe they perform every Wednesday night and they would walk over to each table and perform a different song. They were pretty loud and it lasted for most of the dinner, so if you are not fond a loud music then I wouldn't recommend coming during a time that they are performing. I wasn't a fan of the loud music in my ears... So next time I would go on a day they're not there.

Service here is consistently attentive. Even when it's busy, it's not hard to get your servers' attention. But during peak season, that might be a different story. We've only eaten meals here a couple of times during our stay at the resort; First night, and last day. We also came here several times just to grab some light bites and fruit in between meals. Food selection rotates, and die the most part, not spectacular. Just goood enough to get you full. But their dessert selection is worthy of a fancy pastry shop. You can order alcoholic or espresso based drinks from your server, or self serve juices. One thing to note, it seems they have a shortage of spoons. Eva use spoons are never placed on the tables with other utensils. And when we ask for know, often times were handed the wrong size: like a huge soup spoon for a small dessert cup, or a teaspoon for a bowl of soup. Bugambillia is conveniently located in the lobby area, right next to the main Lobby Bar. It's a great place to grab some quick bites and go about your day.

There is parking right by it, but it only can hold 10 cars maybe? We lucked out and found a spot. VERY IMPORTANT, they only accept cash so make sure you have cash. They take pesos and dollars. You walk down stairs to enter the restaurant and it is very inviting and over looks the water. Apparently you can frequently see crocodiles in the water. We were not so lucky. At the advice of our friend and the waiter we got several of the Pescadillas (fried fish tacos). The waiter explained that the fish was actually shark. The tacos are 28 pesos each, we each got 3. And they were delicious, we also ordered the Shrimp with garlic mojo. The shrimp was sooo good, as is in the name, it is very garlicky but very good. Just bring some gum.

Setup: friend's wedding vaca April 2016…read more The good: size, adults only or family side options, room accommodations, friendly service, dining/bar options, wedding venue spaces, shows, activities, kid's club The bad: MOSQUITOES - the land area leading up to the compound is all marshy, making for ideal mosquito breeding - they are EVERYWHERE. Not enough umbrellas on the beach or poolside. Spotty wifi. Rooms on the front side face the marsh. Observations: Overall this is a really nice resort. It's still fairly new so everything is shiny and fresh. The mosquito issue is insane. We were getting eaten alive everywhere - rooms, pools outside rooms, restaurants, etc. Everyone carried bug spray the whole time. While the staff is very friendly, there were some instances where they seemed to communicate poorly with each other, and with us. I would certainly still recommend it though.
