First time at the Zilara, October 8-15, 2019.
Friends getaway....2 youthful low key gals in their mid 40’s. Went for rest and relaxation, sunbathing and eating lol!
Lots of pros to this place. I like that it was adults only, but could have done without the excessively drunk adults. Wasn’t crowded during the week days which gave a quiet and peaceful atmosphere. However lots of weekend visitors flock in for the Friday foam pool party then leave on Sunday. It was fun to watch. A nice variety of nightly entertainment.
Also the on-duty lifeguard is great! He actually had to rescue me out of a rip current. Watch the red flags!
I have visited Cancun many times and stayed at a variety of places. This one will go in my top 3.
Hotel staff was above par! Friendly, helpful, professional and always smiling! It was such a pleasure to see our servers David, Luis, Fabian, Cesar, Carlos and many others throughout the week!
Overall I thought the hotel was beautiful and the accommodations were very comfortable. We had an ocean view room on the top floor, everything was clean and well maintained. Our housekeeper Inez kept our room well stocked! The resort is easy to navigate, love the open air feel. Dining areas are all kept cool so you can enjoy your meal without sweating to death. Gorgeous ocean views all around. Delicious food, buffet was outstanding and I thought the desserts were exceptional. The Asiana restaurant was spectacular and entertaining and I highly recommend reserving a seat for the Hibachi dinner!
Brand new gym was amazing! Wow!
Not many cons but be aware this resort allows smoking. Bed comfort is average but loved my soft pillows. Also there was some construction next door but issue was resolved swiftly.
Overall I had a really nice stay here and would definitely return to the Zilara.
