    We've had exceptional service from the staff at Spice. I would particularly like to point out Noe, Arturo, Angel, Roberto and Ricardo. They took our experience to another level. Their kindness and generosity made us feel so welcomed.

    Fried Plantains with cream and cheese

    Wow this place is amazing! Their customer service is too notch it seems as if all of the staff are there for one common goal which is to give the customer the best experience! I went and I wanted plantains which they had but they didn't have the cream that usually goes with it. Guess what the chef did he especially made the cream for me and made be this special plate just for me! Excellent food and service and there's food for all types! Can't wait to come back !!

    One of the best AYCE buffets I've ever had-- tasted even better knowing it was included in the…read moreresort :') For COVID safety purposes, some staff wear masks, and tables are sanitized frequently and thoroughly. The waitstaff are incredibly attentive and friendly, though definitely trying to upsell La Veranda's specialty drinks (charged at an extra cost to the card presented at check-in, though usually $5 or less). I think breakfast and lunch serve the same items, though dinner changes by the weekday. Some nights, the patio area has additional stalls that serve other dishes like tacos, paella, etc. Performers sing or dance nightly to accompany meals, usually matching the "theme" of the evening (ex. American, Italian, Asian). The quality and variety is phenomenal-- my photos barely capture the array of dishes available every day. I had to laugh at some of the options clearly pandering towards to average picky American eater (WHO GOES TO CANCUN FOR HOT DOGS AND PIZZA) My only gripe is that multiple beverages or soups are left out without lids... Dust or dirt could easily settle in and sink into the liquid :S And several dishes are left out without a sneeze guard... Who knows what happens then. NOTE: swimsuits aren't permitted in La Veranda-- clothing/coverups required to check in for any meal. You'll need to provide your room number each time.

There really was just nothing to highlight. It was more of just 'what can I dislike the most.' Everything was just average at best and the size of the buffet was just much smaller than I expected. Also, I was really excited to try their peanut butter & jelly 'flavor of the month' ice cream, but when I got it, we all agreed that it tasted most almondy than PB&J. (as 2 days later was a new month, I saw that that month they had changed the flavor of the month to almond honey so clearly I unknowingly just got an early preview of the next month's flavor). I've heard that on other times this place is an actual restaurant. I wish we had tried it in that format so we could try most made to order items as I would hope they'd be better. While the food was disappointing, the wait staff was absolutely fantastic. They were so helpful and just so joyous. They were constantly joking around with us, helped turn some of our coffees in to a fantastic alcoholic drink, and just being so pleasant to our kids. They were really the stars of the meal. If we were to find ourselves here again, we'd absolutely avoid it if it was their buffet but would also absolutely try it if it was the actual restaurant format. The setting is nice, the interiors are inviting and warm, and I just want to trust these other reviews of people have positively given.

    La Veranda - This is supposed to be peanut butter & jelly ice cream. It tastes more like honey & almond. Tasty, but not what I was expecting/wanting

    This restaurant was the best place to eat for our whole vacation. We stayed at the Royal Sands,…read morewhich is just across the parking lot and after finally getting reservations to the Hacienda Sisal we were very impressed. They have indoor or outdoor seating. The grilled fish was delicious, so good that I got it twice. German, our waiter, was very hospitable and friendly and had great dinner recommendations. The food was delicious, everything we eat was so tasty, and we had such a good time that we returned for a second night! You should definitely come to this restaurant if you are visiting the area and hopefully you can get German who was a wonderful waiter. He went above and beyond and made sure we enjoyed our vacation.

    We came here to celebrate my sister-in-law's birthday and I have to say it was easily the best meal…read morewe had with out all inclusive meal plan. I will say, right off the bat, this place is loud if you're hear during peak meal time. While the mariachi band was a nice added touch, it only exacerbated the already loud dining experience. If you're looking for a quiet, romantic meal, this isn't the place for you. But if you're ok speaking up a bit throughout the meal, do not pass on this restaurant. I opted to try things that I wouldn't easily find at a restaurant, even in Los Angeles where I live. That meant I tried an aztec corn soup for my appetizer (it tasted like liquid corn bread and I say that as a compliment) and then for my main I tried a Molcajete Mixto. It was absolutely amazing. The best way I could explain it is a Mexican bibimbap. Each of the 3 types of meats were grilled perfectly, the special cheese was mild, but had a really great texture to it. The bits of cactus were cooked to perfection where they were soft, but with just the right amount of bite to it. I gobbled that dish up so quickly and considered asking if I could have another one. If I wasn't already stuffed I absolutely would have. It was probably the single best dish I had the entire week I was in Cancun. I've now made it my quest to find somewhere near me where I can get something even remotely comparable. I also appreciate that they had 'kid cocktails.' All 3 of my boys felt so adult sipping on their special mocktails. Our wait staff was a tad out of sorts, they would often say they were going to grab something for us (i.e. a high chair) and then completely dissapear. In the case of the high chair we just ended up finding one ourselves. But I think this issue stemmed from them just being so busy and slightly overstaffed. When they were with us, they were nothing short of fantastic. Honestly, if I ever return to Cancun, I will absolutely be returning here. It was that good. It makes getting the all inclusive package worthwhile. I will, however, avoid going on mariachi night.

    Siete ended up being a pretty good breakfast spot during our stay, although we never got the chance…read moreto try it as the Mexican restaurant. It happened to be closed on the night we planned to eat there, which was frustrating. Honestly, I wish the resort would provide a schedule at check-in showing which restaurants are open and closed each night. We ran into that issue with more than one restaurant during our trip. For breakfast, Siete is very much a traditional buffet. There's a large selection, but some of the breads and pastries sit out in the open and can get stale pretty quickly. The omelet stations were one of the better features. They have two of them, which helps keep the lines moving, and there are a ton of toppings to choose from. The omelets were pretty good, although like most omelet bars, they were slightly overcooked. The standout part of breakfast was the fresh fruit and smoothie station. I believe the gentleman working there was named Marco, and he was awesome. He made our smoothies three different mornings and was always energetic, friendly, and happy to help people figure out what flavors would work well together. They had an impressive selection of ingredients too, including things like prickly pear, aloe vera, and other fruits and vegetables you don't normally see at a breakfast buffet. They also have cereal, meats, a Bloody Mary station, and plenty of other breakfast options, so there's something for just about everyone. Service overall was just okay, but the hostesses were really nice and welcoming. Not the most amazing breakfast buffet I've ever had, but it was a solid option each morning, and Marco alone made the experience a lot more enjoyable. I would definitely eat breakfast here again.

    Siete offers the BEST breakfast buffet ever…read more The best part of the buffet was the fresh omelet and smoothie station. Since when do you ever see a fresh smoothie station at a hotel/resort buffet? Shout out to Marco the only staff member at Live Aqua that left an impression on me for being the most genuinely cheerful guy ever. He will concoct something for you if are indecisive and it always comes out great. Very unique ingredients are available to curate your drink ie. cactus, dragon fruit, star fruit, passion fruit. He makes it a show out of making the smoothie too- all the ingredients he uses is always enough for 1 glass with no waste! They have the best fresh juice station as well- papaya, cantaloupe, watermelon-- all so smooth with no pulp. Fresh fruits, so many pastries, churro & chocolate fountain station, Mexican coffee, Mexican breakfast foods- there's something for everyone. Mimosas are also available! Their dinner offerings were lackluster and not that memorable comparable to their breakfast service. Since the size of the Siete was more spacious than their other restaurants, service is also a lot more slower than usual. Would highly recommend dining at Siete for dinner on their Mexican Festivity night at Live Aqua (was on Thursday) the week we were there- they have live music and performance.
