Lobby was nice with big bar... ROOM, BEDDING DAMP, THEN OUR CLOTHES, THEN THE AWFUL SMELL! Unfortunately, we had significant issues with the room we were provided. It was was damp and smelly, the bedding was damp and had an awful smell...mold or mildew present. This created quite an uncomfortable and unhealthy environment, forcing us to keep the sliding door open to air out the space. We could not use the AC as it made the small worse. Despite this, the dampness persisted, affecting our clothing, which remained damp throughout the stay. Neither the phone or TV ever worked; were told no one available to fix. Also, we needed to shorten our stay and contacted Expedia to ask for a change in our reservation before our stay; however, but were told that their attempts to contact the Reef 28 went unanswered. The management refused to reimburse us ANY AMOUNT for the 2 days we paid for that we were unable to use ($875 ) With the long notice we gave, most likely they could have rebooked the room.Although I would feel sorry for anyone who would have booked it. After spending two days at the hotel, and on the way home, I was coughing, sneezing and having respiratory problems. Within 3 days I was put on antibiotics. I have not been this sick for years! Coincidence? Sad experience my Grandson's first visit to Mexico.

it was close to 5th Ave, and the beach. Staff was friendly and very helpful. Hotel was clean and food was great, and it was good time. Only one issue, which was outside noise at night was very loud, but there is nothing the hotel can do about that. I would go back again as it was a very good vacation!

Had an amazing time at the Reef28 and I will definitely recommend this place to my friends who want an all inclusive. The food was amazing, the staff extremely friendly and the amenities perfect. I would like to give a special shout-out to these people: the cleaning people who left our room immaculate every time, and our servers: Alondra, Paul, Kevin, Juan and Ritchie. Thanks to Felipe also for his warm welcoming gifts.

I really enjoyed my stay at Reef 28. As a solo female traveller I appreciated the welcoming and helpful staff at the resort, especially Eli at the concierge desk. No one was pushy and I didn't constantly feel like I was being sold to. The food choices at the resort were varied, and fine, the Mexican choices were the best. I was hoping for a bit more authentic flavour but I guess they have to cater to more standard tourist tastes. Great location to wander down to the beach or explore the shopping streets.

3/4 of my group got food poisoning some of the worst any of us have had. Didn’t eat anywhere other than the hotel and it started on day 2/3 of a 7 day trip. Most of the staff seem angry all the time. Food is always like warm or cold for the sit down dinner. Items don’t have much flavor or just don’t taste that good. Not horrible but not good. Pool chlorine was so high it’s insane. The other sister Reef hotel in Playacar was a much better spot to visit I recommend staying there.

Great value near everything.
Good value for price. Located near Mamitas Beach Club and 5the Avenue. The rooms are comfortable, the breakfast was included and buffet style or in restaurant. There is a rooftop bar. Pool also on rooftop was small, not lap poo. Gym was basic and a little under par. Over all liked our stay.
