2/5
Liked: Lovely restaurants (other than buffet) but have to book via app at 7am, 48 hours before.
Heads-up for parents: Bursting with teens on spring break on their first drinking experience. Pool full of drunk teenagers all afternoon. Towels at pool full of lice.

3.5/5Perfect for young partygoers, drink lovers, and all-day pool loungers.
Liked: I liked how clean the facilities were. The rooms were nice albeit small. I liked that there were golf carts around to take you to your destination. We liked the shows and that they were a little earlier.
Heads-up for parents: This is nothing against Nizuc or the Moon palace, but it just wasn't my vibe.

Watch out: Meats a brazilian and italian at golf course, plus getting a call every day at 8:30 am from staff trying to sell activities and use up credits. Very annoying!
