So Nice I Visited Thrice!
I've been to a number of Secrets and this is my current favorite! The resort is absolutely gorgeous and all of the staff are incredibly attentive. I've gone solo and with friends and had an amazing time in each case. Whether you want quiet experience or a lot of activity, they have options for everyone.

The best wedding day
Had our wedding at Secrets Playa Blanca. The staff was incredible at making our wedding day and our entire stay so special. They were very attentive, and helped out with any questions we had. We wanted to thank the concierge, Luis and Miguel. They were fantastic and reached out to us every morning with a list of activities at the resort. They were also very helpful with anything we needed help getting done. Also wanted to thank our wedding coordinator Ingrid. She did such a great job throughout our whole experience. I’d recommend anyone getting married at the resort to work with her. The food was amazing. The drinks were delicious. And our family and friends were able to relax and enjoy themselves during their stay. My wife and I can’t wait to go back next year for our anniversary.

Just WOW!
We just got back after a week at this beautiful resort. I cannot say one bad thing about our vacation. From the amazing people work work there, lush property and beach, and amenities, it was hands-down our best trip to a Secrets and our new favorite. I have been a member with UVC since 2013 and this one takes the cake! Special shout out to Victor, Celeste, Victor, Pedro, Henry, Raul, Monserrat, Sixto, Alfredo, Angel and Martin. You truly made out trip most enjoyable.

Amazing Experience!
From the moment we arrived, we were provided the best customer service from every employee staff that we were in contact with. Even just in passing, you were always greeted! We had a stunning view of the ocean front from our balcony! Our concierges, Benji and Eddy was always pleasant and willing to help with anything. You had a variety of activities to choose from daily and have the option of being social and having your own personal quiet time. This was a a great experience, one we'll always remember! Thank you!

Would definitely go back again
This resort is 45 minutes from the hotel, very private and safe feeling. The property is beautiful and the staff incredible. Restaurants were good, our favorite were the Italian, Hibatchi, and French. The buffet for breakfast daily was also wonderful, lots of variety, including a full Mexican buffet along with a traditional American one. Room service was good and fast, house keeping was always on top of things and the pool concierge may have been the highlight. Can't say anything bad about this resort, other than the "not a timeshare" sales pitch they attempted to make at the beginning, but we never heard back from our guy which was okay.
