8.6/10 Excellent! (1,803 reviews)
As soon as we checked in the resort lobby, we were assigned a "personal concierge", and her sole job was to convince us into signing up for a timeshare sales meeting even before we had the chance to put up our luggage in the room. She was very tenacious into persuading us to sign the attendance document. We declined the first person with much difficulty, but everytime we went to the lobby, somebody would approach us asking why we declined her. Eventually, we gave in and agreed to attend the sales pitch. They used all kinds of tactics from "now or never" to "emotional appeals". They tried to sell us a package worth $60K as an upfront investment, along with a monthly fees of $1600. We decline the offer to the salesperson, but then her manager showed up with another (but a similar) spiel and we had to decline the offer to him as well. The whole sales pitch went on for 45 minutes straight. We were promised a gift card in the amount of $160 for attending the sales pitch which was reduced to $120 at the time of the checkout without any explanation. The whole sales pitch was excruciating stressful as expected. There was no poolside music and the beach was rendered useless due to the excessive seaweed accumulation. On a positive note, the food was fantastic and the staff was courteous for the most part. Overall, we would not recommend this place in good conscience.

9/10 Wonderful! (1,006 reviews)
We absolutely love ABR! Our family has been visiting this resort for the past 15 years, and it continues to be a special place for us. Each year, we notice thoughtful updates and improvements, all while maintaining the natural beauty of the grounds, which blend seamlessly with the surroundings. Everything is always impeccably clean, and the staff is consistently kind, polite, and attentive.
We especially enjoy the 8 AM yoga sessions, daily beach volleyball, and the wide variety of delicious food and drinks. While the evening entertainment could use some improvement—most nights the bands don't quite energize the crowd—there’s always a great atmosphere in the main palapa after dinner. Sundays are a highlight, with a fantastic Salsa/Cumbia band that gets everyone on the dance floor!
During our recent stay, the sargassum issue affected the beaches, which was unfortunate but beyond anyone’s control. Akumal Bay is typically home to some of the most stunning beaches and snorkeling we’ve ever experienced.
Overall, we love this resort for its welcoming, international vibe and outstanding customer service. We look forward to returning again!

7.8/10 Good! (1,006 reviews)
This resort is… fine. The food is just okay, nothing amazing. They have a bizarre dress code that’s only sporadically enforced, the bars and restaurants close at weird times, and it seems like many of the employees are there mostly to sell you stuff. A bit frustrating and I won’t likely go back.

8/10 Very Good! (1,078 reviews)
The staff is super friendly and will make sure to help you in any way they can. Antonio from the bar was awesome. He was always smiling and ready to provide the best service.
One thing i didn't like was that guests get up super ealry and i am talking about 5 am to grab their spots by the pool, so if you are like me and get up around 8 or 9, you won't find any shade. The hotel does have a rule that says if you leave your spor for 45 min, they will remove your towels and belongings; however, i haven't seen it being enforced.
I do think the experience would've been different if the beach was not "invaded" by the seaweed.
Hotel did meet my expectations. This was 3rd Dreams that my family and I visited and I will definitely stay at Dreams again.
