The beach is very accessible and you can snorkel in 4 feet water from swimming into the beach. We saw turtles and all sizes and colors of beautiful fishes. If you... More

We have been to Mexico all inclusive resorts on 7 other visits. Never have we seen such a laid back place. I slept 11 hours... More

The food was very good and the staff made you feel welcome and always wanted to help in any way they could. Our biggest complaints were that the resort is old and a bit worn and... More

This is my first time to a resort, and I have to say it set my expectations high for the next time I do. All of the staff was extremely friendly and helpful to any questions we had. And I was happy to not be at a "mega resort." Food was great, bartenders are excellent at making drinks, and we... More

It always seemed humid and damp in... More

My husband and I just got back from a 4 night stay at ABR. This all-inclusive resort is billed as a 3-star and we felt this was accurate. There are some things that make this hotel a great place to vacation, and some other things we wish they would change. PROs: BEACH, drinks, friendly staff, cleanliness, good food CONS: uncomfortable... More
