“Great Trip”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012

people found this review helpful

Went here with hubby during Feb 1-5th. Had an absolute blast! Not sure why all the bad reviews. If you're looking for a 5 star place go find a Ritz. If you're looking to party and let loose then this is the place to be... We found the staff very friendly and willing to assist. We made lots of friends and felt really comfortable. If boobies offend you then this is not the place to go. I was hesitant at first but let it all hang out after an hour and people were very respectful. Except for the idiot that tried to take a picture of me. Seriously??!!!

Food: We found the food below average for the most part. Been to a lot of all inclusives and we felt this place could have been better. The exception to this were those yummy burgers and the Asian place.

Rooms: Were decent and clean. Pre registered a week in advance and requested a quiet room but when I went to check in the guy had no clue. By then all they had left were rooms with 2 double beds. We sacrificed sleeping apart for the peace and quiet at night!

Pools: Sexy pool is the place to be and where we stayed the whole time. Water was warm on our first day however we noticed a difference in temp the rest of our stay. Hubby and I ended up getting these mysterious scratches and bruises all over. We also noticed other people with similar scratches. We decided there was a piranha in the pool because we just couldn't explain how we got them. Hubby's was really bad and looked like claw marks!

Beach: Can't really say much as it was too cold to swim in. We did go in about knee deep. It was nice. Lots of seaweed washes up to the shore but we did see someone on several occasions cleaning up.

Entertainment: The staff was great. Sarah69 was awesome and super hot. The music however was extremely lacking!!! After a few days you noticed the "DJ" playing the same stuff over and over. Dude get a new CD! We have banned Pit Bull from our iPod for a while.

Excursions: We purchased a trip on a catamaran to Isla Mujeres from the hotel (the guy at the back past the check in counter) and I will compare the trip to being held hostage. It was just awful and boring. I can't say enough: if you want to go talk to the entertainment staff and do "The One and Only" trip to Isla Mujeres. Their boat past us up and I was green with envy at how much fun they were having! They even had boobies!!! I swear if I knew how to swim I would have jumped overboard and swam to shore. Wasted an entire day on this thing.

Hotel Guests: It was about 95% Canadian and 5% American. I had no idea Canadians partied so hard! Mostly couples, bands of single guys, and a few single girls. Didn't really get approached by guys in that way. Spoke to a few but were very nice and understood I was married. Found the women to be more aggressive but still had fun. We found the age range was mid 20's to early 40's then jumped to the older range. We fall in the mid 30's range just to give you a perspective. Again everyone was super nice and respectful.

Would I go again? Absolutely!!! Already trying to figure out when we can go back. You really get out what you put in. So if your stuffy and uptight you won't enjoy yourself. If you are open minded and fun then you will have a blast.

Room Tip: Room near Quiet Pool is the way to go if you want to get some sleep unless you pass out at which poi...

“what is there to complain about?”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 7 February 2012
4
people found this review helpful

we stayed here from 23rd jan until feb 6th and to be totally honest we can,t understand some of the complaints in the latest reviews,some people must live in and holiday in palaces ,they are really picky!..rooms are a very high standard,modern and kept very clean by hard working staff.beach is fine, there are jetty's all along the coast so try to avoid one if you can,kept clean and plenty of sunbeds.food!!,how can you possibly complain, my wife is a very high standard chef and also trains chefs and she found no problems at all finding a good well presented meal every night for 2 weeks. drinks were fine and plentiful, if you felt that your drink was weak just ask bar man for more in your drink ,we did this and after a few times barman said ,stronger and got the message.all bar staff work there butts off so tip them well!.a la carte restaurants were excellent and from the amount of people using them fine by all.as to lewed adult behaviour, get real!,we holiday in europe over the summer and this place is a kindergarden compared to european resorts ,adults are there to enjoy themselves and if it's not your scene walk away like my wife and i did.our kids are as old as most of the clientele here yet we felt comfortable and had an amazing time,many thanks to the management and staff for making our stay memorable, will be back next year

Room Tip: don't get a roon by paty o bar unless you can sleep in a disco

Go to Temptation with an open mind. It is not just for "swingers".
We were there for a bachelor party (Feb 2012), we could not have picked a better place to hold it. Don't be afraid to meet people, socialize, participate in the daily activities....it will only add to a positive experience.

Pro:
Friendly people, everyone is there to socialize and just have a good time
Party pool, we got rain on day 2, normally everyone would have run for their rooms. At temptation, the party only got started.
Comfy beds
Great Staff
Location, 10 minutes from the night life

Con:
Avg cleanliness
Resort is looking a little tired
Food was average, almost Zero vegitarian options
Small beach
Not Top Shelf alcohol

Room Tip: Ask for a room away from Paty'O Lounge. The party goes till the wee hours of the morning and yo...

“Great place, wouldnt go again...”

I stayed here with my boyfriend Sept/Oct 2010... We had a great time and I cant fault the hotel. All of the staff were great and couldnt do enough for you, the room was massive and cleaned everyday with fresh towels and clean sheets. The food was lovely but by the second week I was sick of the same thing. There is a big variety of food but I found eating at the same hotel every night started to get a bit tedius. The entertainment wasnt all that but we did go a relatively quiet time. I had a great holiday but I wouldnt go back.

“Fun place, but wouldn't go back”
2 of 5 stars Reviewed 4 February 2012

people found this review helpful

I had stayed at Temptations the week of 1/15/2012. This resort is old, smells strongly of mold in the rooms and even in the lobby. It's like a dormitory rather than a hotel. After driving by all of the big, beautiful resorts along the way, it's disappointing to pull into this small, run-down 3 story resort. The "beach" is pathetic. All it is is an ankle deep cove on the Gulf between two boat marinas. The location is horrible, it's far away from the Cancun strip and there is no sunrise. The food wasn't bad but they have very few Mexican offerings. When I'm in Mexico, I want to eat Mexican food - not Italian or Asian! The mixed drinks were so watered down that I felt absolutely nothing when drinking them. They only way to be sure to get some alcohol is to drinks shots and/or beer.

However, it was a fun place. Topless is the norm so guys who are into that would be in their glory! Lots of cool, beautiful, fun people. Everyone was nice and seemed normal. I guess I was expecting all perverts! About 75% Canadian. The entertainment and shows were hot. Everyone was there to party so there's no need to go off the resort to have fun. It's a party and dancing all night long. Actually, all day long too! The DJ music was fun the first night but you realized that it was the same "recording" night after night, so it got old.

it was fun for a one-time experience but due to the poor location, smelly facility and lack of a beach, I wouldn't go back.
