I love peaceful & relaxing places ...but I'd hope there's an appropriate level of good service at those places to make it even more relaxing and worry-free.

Just two examples at the pool: it was too warm for the waitstaff to provide drinks/snacks around the pool, so you had to walk yourself to the poolside grill for each drink/snack. (The pool area is pretty large, so a barefoot walk in the sun is a decent task.) There was a towel shortage, so they wanted to recycle (and wash) towels quickly. Being poked while sleeping poolside with "hey, are you still using that towel?" isn't exactly something that I'd associate with a relaxing resort.

For $200+/night, you think they'd have complimentary shampoo in the bathroom. And for a resort, they'd have poolside lounge service that wouldn't complain about 85 degree heat (it is the New Mexican desert after all.)

Still, it wasn't a bad experience. And perhaps in my recent resort-hopping (I was in Hawaii and Vegas before New Mexico) the placed paled in comparison. But when I think of relaxing resort getaways with fantastic rooms and even better service, unfortunately the Tamaya won't make my list.
