Our room looked over the pool area. Our first night in room 419 the smoke defector started chirping at about 3am. I called reception and she sent maintenance up to replace the battery. There was no hot water at all to take a shower. My husband found this out. We told them at the reception desk and sh said she would get it fixed. Didn't happen. I will never stay here again.

I would have liked to have given our stay here more stars because the hotel was beautiful and clean, the location was so good for what we wanted. Lots of restaurant choices just across or down the street within 1-5 minutes walk, and the beach was phenomenal! But this hotel has one major problem. The noise. I’d read the odd review mentioning the noise but you always wonder if the person writing the review just likes to exaggerate. However I’m surprised how understated the noise issue is. Our first room was located on one side of the building overlooking a bar that has a brass “Banda” that plays until midnight and then dance music til 4am nightly. Not just weekends. Every night. The concrete on the hotel acts like an amphitheatre and the band sounds like it’s right outside your door. There is no way to sleep through it. It’s LOUD. So after 3 nights when we realized it was not just a Friday and Saturday thing we asked to be moved to a quieter room which they did with no questions (turns out everyone asks to be moved from these rooms!) Unfortunately we were moved and downgraded from a balcony/ocean view to no balcony and a tree blocking the only window. And right above another bar that plays dance music til 4am with bass that literally rattles the windows. Again, no sleep. We lasted 3 nights there before talking to another couple who told us the quiet area is the centre and that they moved 3 times before discovering it. Finally we found a room that we could sleep in.

I was upgraded to the Mykonos suite shortly after arrival. A beautiful ocean front/ocean view room on the 7th floor. The views were breathtaking. The lush vegetation all around the perfectly manicured landscape was very calming and beautiful. The lobby is open and airy. The staff were very polite, accommodating and helpful. The pool area was beautiful. There was plenty of seating on the beach with impressive beach access! The bar was on point. Walkable to many shops and restaurants. I highly recommend this property. This was my first trip to Mexico and Gaviana was perfect!! I can't wait to come back!
