    Best review of Haven I have seen. I stayed here in July and your review is spot on. I loved it and how chill it was. If you're looking at having a quiet, adult only resort with enough entertainment, this is probably the best place I have been to. I am a beach person and the beach did disappoint but the pools def made up for it. I tried all the restaurants and even tho I'm picky I liked everything I had surprisingly. You have to reserve the asian place if you want hibachi style. I hate sitting in transport for another hour after a plane ride and customs in Mexico so I loved the 15 min drive to get there. I would for sure go back to Haven. My parents also stayed there in May and would also go back.

    Haven was such a beautiful resort (minus the beach) and comes with a great price tag but did have a few things lacking in the entertainment area. So I want to know...do you prefer a calm resort that's more on the quiet side or a resort with more upbeat vibe??? Let me know 😜

      I went last year for my birthday and didn’t enjoy my stay. Food is amazing, the resort is beautiful but too quiet for my taste and lacks entertainment. I like resorts that are more on the party side but I didn’t research that prior to going there. I’m a beach person and there was so much seaweed unfortunately. Food and Drinks amazing that I can say

    Thanks for sharing. I just got back on the 8th from Bahia Principe Luxury Akumal. Already miss it so much. I have those reviews on my channel and also from Barcelo we stayed at last year. Currently Akumal is being renovated with brand new rooms set to open in Dec. Def need to to back to check it out once its done. How is the AC issue at Haven outside your room in the common areas? Bahia right now is non existent I think due to renos and supply cost as electricity is very expensive in Mexico. We did not find it as bad as people make it seem on the fb group. We prepped and brought mini fans it was fine. Rooms were cold well at least ours I thought was cold but I don’t like it freezing. The issue should fixed in the near future.

    Very informative, so many empty negative or positive reviews. You really presented the walk through as a normal person vs someone who drives a Rolls..... or dump truck..... Question, if there is no lobby bar where do you get a drink a mid day? Restaurant or pool? do you know if there is any plans for a lobby bar.
    Again, great review, fealt like we were there with you.ps... we have stayed at Ibers* Grand's for last years, Secrets, Memories, Royalton before, but like variety. Our honeymoon was in Playa Mujeres 40 yrs ago, Mayans were still there then....... We like QUIET, and without being reclusive, I could vacation in a morgue and complain of the noise. I liked your description of the different areas. The water on this side of the ocean is negative for the most part. They could build some barriers but a question of money, permits, and does it matter? I suppose. Thanks again GREAT REVIEW

Doing a lot of research and I need to book some thing tonight or tomorrow morning. I haven’t traveled for 10 years so I’m trying to have a great experience. two adults round-trip at Haven is about $4700 total for two on United airlines. Is that a good price?

    Any recommendations for giving tips at this resort?
    How much would you expect to tip in a given day? We’ve been looking at various reviews and someone said the staff at the restaurant demanded more of a tip from them. I’m just trying to plan accordingly and have no additional insight into their situation.
    It’ll be my first time at an all-inclusive. So I’m just not sure what to expect and want to make sure we are being respectful.

    • @jessicajames1599
      @jessicajames1599 3 місяці тому

      That’s very nice to ask…. I haven’t been to this resort. But, I’ve been to many AI’s throughout Mexico, Aruba and DR.
      I’ve never seen any staff demand more of a tip….Tipping varies depending on service.
      At dinner restaurants, if I was happy with service, I left between $10-$25
      At Breakfast, I tipped the omelette station and left a tip at the table (buffet service) $5-$10
      At the bar, I would usually go to the same bartender or cocktail server and at the end of the night , I usually give $20.
      A big one to think about is The Chamber Maids / House Cleaning.. A few times, I left a tip at the and of the week, and I stayed 4 nights/5days and left a $50…. I was told it’s better to leave a tip each day. So, I’d lease $5-$10…
      There was one staff member that really made me and my BF feel welcomed. He was super attentive, friendly, funny, and kind. On our last day , we gave him an additional envelope with $100…
      I’ve seen some people tip very well and, I’ve seen people tip poorly or not at all, or $1.
      It’s a real personal thing. But, hard work and kindness should be rewarded
