Good
Staff was very friendly and accommodating. They went out of their way to make us feel welcome.
Unfortunately some of the restaurants were already closed permanently due to planned renovations to the entire facility (Esmeralda) which we did not know about prior to booking. We were able to use some facilities in the neighboring hotels within the Bahia complex.

spacious easy to get around and the staff were all super nice. the beach was gorgeous as were the cocktail bar. the food was heavenly apart from the Thali restaurant.
everything was really dusty and it was old dust. Lamps were dodgy. remote didnt work and the Tv was poor. lack of electrical sockets and a kettle. used the coffee machine to boil water but disgusting. not everyone drinks coffee or tea. not being able to make restaurant reservations beforehand. not near enough parasols around the pool.

Nothing,
I never will be back to this place, tourist trap not luxury, not adults only, this place is falling apart, I tried to migrate or upgrade to the hotel beside Esmeralda its called Ambar and I was able to pay for that but employees at front desk dont car

Wonderful
The food was great. We had lunch at the buffet and dinner at M.E.A.T. and El Olivo. Every dish was to everyone's expectations. The staff was very friendly and accommodating. The space and surrounding areas are very beautiful. Lots of vegetation!
Maybe having more shading areas around the pools (similar to the ones at the Fantasy resort). One more thing, particularly in our room (92015), the bathroom floor is not anti-slip --that is a hazard

Friendly staff and good location
It took us 45 minutes to figure out we had to get on a shuttle to get to Esmeralda. No one was there to let us know what to do.

Fair
- Size of the room - Comfortable hard bed - Beautiful green territory - Close location to the beach - Good umbrellas on the beach - It is connected to other Baha hotels for better entertainment
- My room has been cleaned only ONES during my whole stay. Seems the staff dont want to do their job. And this is 5 star hotel! There is no hygiene! - The bed sheets, pillows were dirty at the day of my arrival, looked like they were on the floor before - There was no bathrobe in my room, no bath accessories - The 24 hours room service doesnt work, just because no one picks up the phone - A La Carte restaurants are disaster! EXCEPT all the restaurants in Baha Ambar. NEVER go to El Olivo restaurant! Its the most disrespectful place ever. Better go to cafeteria, the food there isnt bad. - The beach is dirty. There is lots of rubbish in the sand. - Its almost impossible to find a sun bed on the beach somewhere close to the water. Everyone is leaving their clothes or towels on the beds for whole night to book the bed. - Too many random people which are selling souvenirs are disturbing all the time. - Very poor bar menu - Cheap tableware and usually very dirty - In general the staff is completely unprofessional
