Dismal stay at Blue Bay Esmeralda
We had to move three times as there were problems with our room. Lock on the balcony door was broken and we were in the main floor. The toilet backed up and they wouldn’t fix it rather told us to move. We were here for ten days and couldn’t get into the Italian restaurant. The steakhouse, seafood and French restaurants were terrible. The Mexican was the best The buffets were good but they are in the same at every meal. Went to the gym and half of the treadmills were broken. The staff asked us how our visit was going and we told them. They didn’t really seem to care. Overall an old and dumpy resort which I would never come back to or recommend. Pathetic!

2 star at best with serious issues.
2 star resort. This is coming from someone who has been to CUBA many times.. I was excited to check out a what it claims to be “5 star” Mexican resort as I’ve heard it’s on a whole other level. Well.. I’ve been to better 3 star Cuban resorts.. so if you want to have a 2 star experience.. go here. Food is salty and repetitive, long walks to get anywhere on this resort, they hound you for timeshare nonsense even if you’ve said no 10 times. Our room smelt terribly of mould. Black mould also in the ceilings of bathrooms and main areas. Customer service was difficult as half didn’t know English. AC went in the room, keys didn’t work multiple times in times it was raining and it was a 10 minute walk to the lobby. Room was falling apart..

Not a 5 stars hotel!
We had a bad experience in this hotel, first of all they just had one person doing the check in, we stay at the line for 20-30 minutes. Then in the room, the bathroom light didn't work, they changed us to another room, the mini bar didn't have nothing, after two calls to room service they brought water, soda and beers. The food is not terrible but almost every time is the same. Every single thing in this hotel is far away, you need to take a golf car for moving, they said you can take the car every 5 minutes, that's a lie. The day we left, we had to walk with the bags, a baby and stroller because even though we called the reception they never showed up.
