I had a lovely stay at the resort, enjoying a fantastic beach with clear, turquoise water. The service was outstanding, with attentive staff making our visit special. However, there could be more variety in late-night snacks and the evening entertainment was just mediocre. Overall, it's a great place for relaxation and fun in the sun.

The resort has a stunning beach with beautiful turquoise waters and white sand, making it a perfect spot for relaxation. While the staff is incredibly friendly and accommodating, the accommodations could use some updating, especially if you're not in an upgraded room. The dining options are decent but not very varied, and if you're seeking more activities, you might have to venture off the resort. Overall, it's a great choice for a laid-back vacation, but don't expect a bustling atmosphere.

I had an incredible week at Dreams Sands Cancun! The beach is stunning and calm, perfect for swimming. While the staff was genuinely fantastic and went above and beyond, the dining experience left a lot to be desired, especially the general buffet food. I felt the rooms could use a bit of an upgrade as well, but overall, it was a good experience with some memorable moments thanks to the staff.

I just returned from an incredible vacation at Dreams Sands Cancun, where the staff truly made the experience exceptional. The beach was absolutely stunning, and I loved the activities available both poolside and on the beach. However, while most of the staff was attentive and friendly, I found the dining options a bit repetitive and the cleanliness of my room could have been better. Overall, I had a wonderful time and would certainly consider returning.
