5/5MINIMAL STAFFING WORKING…
Liked: MINIMAL STAFFING WORKING HARD Just back from ten days at JOIA PARAISO in the Mayan Riviera. The resort is absolutely beautiful and although it’s a well-established resort everything has been very well maintained overall and in spotless condition.

5/5
Liked: After staying at this resort for 12 times for over 160 nites, I am choosing to try NOT to repeat a lot of what has already been said. SO...WHAT'S NEW? DINNER RESERVATIONS are only needed for the Haiku Tepanaki tables and the Tuesday Nite Gala Buffet.

5/5Come hungry. Be thirsty. Get happy.
Liked: Is merely good resort food not good enough for you? JOIA is the pick for the picky. Its sophisticated dining program has wowed me on several recent visits. JOIA shines even amidst the Riviera Maya’s luxury resort competition.
