The Moon Palace is fabulous! Everything works pretty good, but the best part is the employees. They are very kind and helpful! Specially the waiters of the main restaurant. Iram, Hecner, Adrian, Jonny and the other waiters offered us the best service we never had before. Also, the pool area is amazing! The food is delicious and fresh every day! To finish, I would like to say that we really enjoyed this place! Ps.: everything absolutely clean!

Second time staying at an all-inclusive resort. We visited the Sunrise in November with my bf and another couple for 6 days. We booked through Delta vacations and received $1500 resort credit per couple. Disclaimer: You can't use those credits on anything good. ROOM: Was not part of the latest renovations. Our room was nice but our friends across the hall was rough, with a broken sliding door and ripped up wallpaper. The bathrooms are very tiny compared to the size of the room. Although we booked together, we were originally placed in separate buildings on opposite sides of the resort. After some heckling, we eventually did get placed near each other. The resort was at 60% capacity (at most) so I don't know why it was an issue to begin with. Our room was also supposed to come with a bottle of wine and when we asked for it, we were met with rudeness. The wine glasses came but the bottle never did. SERVICE: A mix of too little service and way too much service. Servers at the pool were few and far between, sometimes waiting 30 min to get our drinks refilled (we were tipping well, too). It also seemed like a lot of staff members did not know what they were doing. The service at the AWE SPA was over-the-top uncomfortable. We used the hydrotherapy area before our massages and were followed around and directed the entire time. It would have been nice to just relax in the area together without being told how and when to use the hot tub and sauna. FOOD: Terrible. The room service food resembles off-brand microwaves meals. I only enjoyed the dinner we had at the hibachi restaurant and the bbq at Smoked, the poolside eatery. The breakfast buffet was also okay. I ordered ice cream at the Italian restaurant and it arrived 15 min later, completely melted. I ordered it again and got the same lack of service and soupy ice cream. All other food was garbage. I got sick twice. DRINKS: A mix of really tasty and really terrible. They say you get "premium liquor" - that is a lie. Any drink you order at the lobby bar or pool bar is cheap. Some of the drinks at the restaurants and in the club are made with "fancier" alcohol, like Stoli. The drinks are very sugary and the wine that is included in your package is so acidic you can hardly drink it. You can upgrade the wine but you have to pay out of pocket for it. We asked to upgrade the alcohol in our rooms but that as not an option either (corona, bud light, bacardi, off-brand vodka and whiskey). POOL/BEACH: Pool was nice, although the renovations were still underway when we left. The beach smells awful and looks worse than the beaches near me here in Michigan. CLEANLINESS: Clean in a sense of covid-preparedness. Dirty in the sense that room service dishes were left in the hallway (not by us) for days and attracted critters and bugs. LOCATION: Quick 15 minute drive from the airport. We did not leave to go on any excursions but heard that most places are 30-60 minutes away. I am shocked that Moon Palace - Sunrise is considered a 5-star hotel. I would give it 3-stars at best. We will not be coming back.…

Noisy AC unit in the room. Water leaking under the sink. All the lights were broken in the hallway. It was very dark on the way back to my room. Came down and talked to public relation regarding the hallway lights, still they did not fix it. And no one called me regarding those issues either. Came with my family but we could not get the two rooms on the same floor. I had to keep going up and down the stair with that dark hallway. Half the pools were closed for maintenaince. Bellmen were very unattentive. Never greet you. The only good thing is the people working in the buffett and Momo restaurants. They were awesome. Made me feel so welcome. Mayra at the pool is also very nice to talk to. Texas BBQ restaurant is good but people work behind the grills had some attitudes. They seemed not happy to be there. We went mutiple times to Cancun as well as Cabos, Puerto Vallatar but never received this bad services.…
