Reknown for their gourmet all-inclusive experience. We did not know exactly what that meant until we joined the guests and wedding party for lunch after the ceremony. This was one of the best 5-course meals we’ve been served! There are about eight different restaurants on this property and they all outdo each other in terms of food quality and service. This hotel doesn’t give you that home-like feeling, the hotel itself has nothing but one of the best staffs to work for a wedding. Their rooftop gazebos and their beach size canopy are two of the major event locations where Indian Weddings usually take place. It’s one location that you must check out if you are going to a destination wedding route in Mexico.
