Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: The old lady has changed.

It has been 10 years since we last stayed at the Royal Decameron. Much has changed but not for the better. The staff has remained extremely welcoming, friendly, and helpful and we truely appreciated them. But the food and the maintenence has gone down a lot . The communication on booking the alacartes was frustrating . The buildings need a lot of upgrading and it would be a great help if the wi-fi would extend further then the loddy area.

Decameron La Marina: It’s a 2-2.5 star resort but still nice

For new resort, it’s only 3-4 years old, it is very run down. The towels are cheap and falling apart, the furniture is peeling, lots of rust everywhere. They had a row of 8-10 bikes, only 1 was in working condition. Your room key is on a cord to wear around your neck. That being said it is on the ocean and it’s kept very clean. Staff is wonderful, not the Sunwing rep, she was impossible to find and not helpful. The hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Rooms have black out curtains, which [... read more] were great except when you wanted light but didn’t want your neighbours across the pool to see you. They need some shear curtains. Beds were comfortable and because we had 2 beds we had lots of extra pillows. TV worked great with a few English channels. No dressers for clothes, there’s a spot for a fridge but it is empty. So a big empty hole with a door instead of a fridge or drawers. No storage in the bathroom except for a rack over the toilet. Good pressure in the shower and lots of hot water. Food was ok. Breakfast was probably the best. Especially the fresh cooked eggs and omelets. The scrambled eggs were chewy and flavourless. The pancakes and French toast was prepared ahead of time and not great. The oriental night was the best. Lots of flavours and the meat was very tender. Mexican night was also very good. The pasta was terrible, like it had been boiled for a few hours and the sauce was tomato soup. You could always find something to eat, lots of fresh fruit and the salads were nice. The alcohol is nonexistent. I don’t know if they water it down or just buy really bad stuff but you cannot get drunk here! Even drinking beer all day long you won’t get the tiniest bit drunk! A friend doesn’t drink more than one drink in the evening and she didn’t get drunk doing tequila shots. Not much going on in the evenings, you need to go off resort to find entertainment at night. Guayabitos has a beautiful long beach with a nice entry. Vendors are plentiful but not abrasive. The town is lovely. Lots of great restaurants and street food. Venture out, it’s worth it. If you can get a good price and love a good beach you’ll enjoy the La Marina.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Great Resort in Bucerias

We enjoyed our stay at Decameron. The location was perfect! Close to town and central for day trips. It’s also not an over crowded touristy area which we like. The resort is nice, rooms are dated but not a big deal. Bed was super comfy. We stayed in building 4. Perfect location. Close to beach, main pools and buffets. This is not an over the top luxury resort. Do not expect that! Alacarte is available every night but you do have to book by 8 AM. We found the app a bit of a pain to use but  [... read more]that’s OK. I would strongly recommend doing as many à la cart as possible. I found the buffet food to be recycled and for the first time in all my years of travel, I had a hard time with the food. That being said, I don’t travel for the food, so I always did find something, the salad bar was awesome every day. There was an egg bar available every morning which was fantastic. I would strongly suggest showing up near the beginning of when the buffet is open if you were looking for more variety of food as the evening lunch service wears on the food becomes depleted and not replenished. My only complaint at this resort honestly was the recycling of variety of food. Again, I am not a picky eater. However, I did find eating more difficult than I ever have in the past. My only other complaint would be that only beer wine or nonalcoholic beverages are available in the buffet. The beach is fantastic, great location! You can walk up and down for hours if you choose. The location of the resort really is prime you can walk into downtown Barias or take indrive, bus taxi or Uber very easily from this location and it’s not very expensive. The location of the resort is a great kick off point for many day trips. Overall, we enjoyed our stay. The staff was fantastic, very attentive and kind.

Decameron La Marina: Very nice resort and friendly service

I stay in hotel between Dec.20 - Dec.27. I love the way how hotel prepare Christmas dinner with all this decoration and amazing food - it was really impressive. Friendly stuff and funny bartenders. Showers were little bit outdated but otherwise OK. Would sure love to be back....

Grand Decameron Montego Beach: Royal decameron montego beach

I thought resort was a little run down staff very rude bar staff not very nice would not recommend resort cleaning staff where not ok giving bathroom supplies pools could be better would go back to Jamaica not resort

Decameron La Marina: Just lovely

Really sweet staff, wonderful Mexican family oriented beach,,, lots of happy children , moms and dads. The food was fresh and tasty! Not noisy after 10:00 pm,,, the rooms were clean and comfy… the view breathtaking:)

Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos Ramada: Great resort

I have been going here for 10 years I absolutely love this place the staff is amazing a lot have become friends…I know it’s an old resort but was always kept spotless these past few years it has really gone downhill …I wish they would address these issues as you have a great staff ….it makes it hard for them when upper management doesn’t seem to care .. the rooms in building 1 could use some upgrades the curtains didn’t even cover the window and had big holes in it ….the shower heads haven’t bee [... read more]n replaced in 30 years I’m sure. All small things to do but nobody’s bothered….even these few small things would make a difference

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Average resort a little old

Grounds kept nice short of help though room kept nice wifi was terrible only get in two places not in your room.trying to book a reservation is almost impossible two couples went down but couldn’t book for more than two dumb

Grand Decameron Cornwall Beach: Nice Resort

Small beachfront resort, 2nd time their first time no issues what so ever. They are lacking towels , had 2 bath and 2 facecloths on arrival, never a bathmat. I was aware of this so brought 2 of my own. Used a beach towel for a bath mat as we never received one & shower leaks on the floor. The couple we were with had no towels, pillows , safe was broken & door was damaged and didn't lock properly, they did get a new room on day 3. New room everything worked. They ran out of beer & some mix day 2  [... read more]but got stocked up again day 4. Our Room had a shower curtain for a door & fridge empty on arrival but received pop and beer day 2 . We only received water twice during stay but always cold water in Lobby. They use to have a local band nightly in the lobby bar which was great. Food was good in the buffet & only did 1 ala cart as they are impossible to get into as only one open at each resort . Over all we had a great time but did notice a difference when we where there last. Company needs to up their supply for staff to give to guests, there is no reason to not have towels, pillows in room & water. If they have no towels to replace what they take they should leave what is there. I did feel for the staff as they did get complaints , but they can only do what they are supplied with. As I said this is the chain issue, or poor management not the staff. Unsure if we will go back or I would recommend to friends. Staff did their best with what they had. First visit 5 stars & this one 3.

Grand Muthu Runaway Bay Club Caribbean: Meh

Resort was pretty much what I was expecting with two exeptions. First, they ran out of beer on the wednesday and thursday. I could see this happening but would expect it to be remedied quickly not repeated the next day. Secondly they "ran out" of certain foods, that seemed to be remedied for us (4 of us) because we tip well but others went without. This method of extortion for tips would be easily eliminated with a good supply of foods and screams "Bad management" to me. Its too bad beacuse mo [... read more]st of the staff were quite nice and helpful.

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Been before; will go again.

We've been to this hotel a few times. Our room was exactly as we hoped; oceanfront 3rd floor. Breakfast good. Love the salsa. Dinners only so so. Used Block 5 adult pool perfect. Staff great. Overall seems a wee bit tired. Would I go back? Yes.

Decameron La Marina: Not for everyone but… Jen for older people

This is a Mexican vacationing resort so their are lots of nice Mexico. Service was amazing, struggled with employees speaking English and the rooms were nice. Looking for a party area please don’t come here, looking for relaxing low budget vacation come here

Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos Ramada: A little disappointing.

I suspect the hotel is still recovering from the Covid downturn. The booking system for the 'a la cart' restaurant is on line but the hotel Wi-Fi is so spotty that even though we tried for 8 days there were no seats available. We were told to start trying at 1.00 a.m. when the app. opened for the day ahead. Lineup for the buffet supper (no alternative) started at 6.00 p.m. on the weekends and took 45 minutes to get to the front of the queue. When we were finally seated, the service and the foo [... read more]d were good. We chose to eat in the town when the resort was busy. Lineup to get a beer at the bar could take 15 mins. at times. The service was good but the bar is not big enough. Ocean was warm and calm but the beach is very crowded and covered in garbage at the weekends. Pools were clean and warm. Rooms were kept clean and tidy. Biggest irritation was the lack of quiet space. The entertainment volume, both on the beach and in the theatre, was painful at times. Many guests left the shows because of the volume.

Decameron Isla Coral: Great stay

All the staff was very friendly and helpful. They were very patient with communication between the language barrier. The concierge was extremely friendly and was willing to help in anyway. Would recommend this hotel to others. Was a very basic hotel food was simple but very tasty. Hotel was close proximity to the town and shops.

Grand Decameron Panama: An amazing experience

The resort was clean even though it rained often but not for long periods they were very good at clearing debris. The food was good for a resort I wish there was more choice at the buffet but what was there was good . The cost for was you receive was very good the beach was nice , plenty of pools , and a nice water slide .

Grand Decameron Montego Beach: Royal Decameron Montego Beach Still Rocks!

We came back from a week in Montego Bay on Nov 22nd. We had been to the RD Montego Beach approximately a decade ago and had loved it. Reading the reviews before booking about RDMB was a little surprising to see the more negative reviews. We love the place because it is smaller, and the food is very good. This is a 3 star resort and I think people sometimes expect 5 star amenities wherever they go. RDMB is very clean, and the staff ensures the food is safe by randomly checking the temperatu [... read more]re of the food. The buffet Passa Passa has a variety of fresh fruits, vegetables, meat, fish, breads, cheese, cereal, etc. The buffet offers variations of preparations of these foods daily. The a la carte restaurant Souk is excellent, preparing Jamaican cuisine in new ways, including Asian fusion. As a bonus, RDMB’s sister resort, RD Cornwall Beach is right next door, and you can use all the amenities there, including their a la carte restaurant, Olivia, featuring seafood. The grounds were immaculate, which was very important to me since my mother is elderly and has problems seeing the ground when she’s walking. The staff was amazing; friendly, helpful and they really take care of people with mobility issues. So many times they would tell us to take our time, and made some amenities more easily accessible for her, without asking. Jamaicans vacation here as well, and we had so much fun. You know a place is good when the locals stay there! If you are looking for a 5 star sprawling resort, this is not the place for you. This place is for people looking for a gorgeous beach, great staff and a family feel. We shall be back!

Grand Decameron Panama: Great vacation !!!

This was my first time in Panama, not only at the Royal Decameron Resort, so I didn't know what to expect... Of course I checked the reviews from other people, but everybody has their own impressions... The member of the staff were very friendly and helpful, always smiling, not just expecting tips...like it happened to me in other places... The room, the lobby, the restaurants, all common areas very clean, always somebody to pick up a paper or even a leaf... The only suggestions I will have f [... read more]or improvement, not as a critique, will be: - advertised in the lobby, where everybody could see and read the daily activities scheduled and location, regarding the entertainment also restaurants due for buffet and snack duty... the resort is pretty large and are a lot of stairs... is hard after you are exhausted by heat to go back and forth... - the stand up comedy act and all other jokes as part of the entertainment program should be also translated in English... if you don't know Spanish you are missing a lot... - for some reason my room had no artwork on the walls at all, was looking kind of cold and empty... also no plastic furniture on the balcony, so I couldn't enjoy that space... That is about all I had to say!

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Excellent affordable holiday

Comfortable rooms, great pools. We stayed in the adult only pool section that was close to the breakfast restaurant and the bar. There was an area designated for smokers. The food could have had a more upscale menu and variety however I never went hungry. Many repeat customers were there. It is our third time and would definitely return!

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Exceeded expecations!

The service was incredible as the staff were so friendly and helpful (especially Lorenzo). The food was amazing, the drinks delicious, the views were beautiful, and we loved every minute of the time at the beach! The weather was very hot so it was great to come back from a day on the beach or wandering around Bucerias to hang out in an A/C cooled room for an hour or two before heading down for dinner. We will definitely be back again next year and highly recommend this resort to those who would  [... read more]like to escape the cold of Winter and get to know the very cool little town of Bucerias.

Grand Decameron Los Cabos: Nice place

The hotel and grounds are well taken care of for its age. The food was good nothing fancy seemed like a favorite spot for northerners of Mexico as well. I will admit the beds could have been a bit softer but overall it's a good location and some very nice people work there.
