Items returned same day. Butlers very nice and took care of any room problems immediately
Thanks for the comprehensive review. How much do you recommend tipping here? I have seen a few generic guides for tipping at AI resorts in Cancun, but I was not sure if this place is any different since they are going for the 'high-end' feel. I have only stayed in one AI resort before, and that was 20+ years ago. The standard advice I have found so far seems to be P20 for a drink, P50-100/meal and housekeeping (every guide has the fun quirk of breaking the tips down in USD while telling you to tip in pesos
). I don't mind tipping in principle, but having to break out some cash every time I order a drink or snack seems to defeat the whole purpose of 'all-inclusive', which is one of the reasons I tend to avoid these places.
