We just returned from the most wonderful vacation at Banyan Tree. We were greeted by Juan, who was our concierge for the 5 nights we spent there. He took such amazing care of us, walking us through our property, helping with dinner reservations, making sure we has water and everything we needed in our villa. I’m sure all of the concierge staff is wonderful, but we felt so lucky to have Juan. This place is the perfect blend of relaxation and activity. You could spend the entire vacation on a beach chair or you could be up and out all day. We had a blast on a kayak tour of the cenotes with Miguel and we rode a catamaran with Edwin. Please go to the spa and do the rainforest experience. If you can reserve a private experience there, it’s an incredible to start the vacation. A beautiful guided experience. Sendy, Olga and Andrea gave us the best morning, and we felt so relaxed and pampered. The food at all of the restaurants was really great. We loved having breakfast at Sands every morning. We rode our bikes and they have gorgeous food. Food is pricey at all of the restaurants, but that’s to be expected. If you want a really delicious lunch, do to La Fondita and have a tostada. Go to La Copa and have Oscar make you a red berry gin and tonic. Please! My husband and I don’t have kids, but it seemed like all the kids there were having an amazing time. I can’t recommend this property enough.
