The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Delicious Dining Experience

I had a fantastic week at Jolly Beach Resort! The dining options were genuinely impressive. We primarily dined at the alacarte restaurants, with both the Mexican and Italian places serving excellent meals. I particularly loved the rotating Italian menu that featured my favorite dish, lasagna, along with perfectly cooked steak and fish. The buffet, while limited, offered great variety and everything was always delicious. Thanks to the very nice chefs, I never found a meal to be anything but excellent.

Enjoyable Room with a View

We stayed in a Queen Superior room and it was spacious, offering plenty of wardrobe space and even a fridge! The view from our second-floor balcony overlooked the beach and pool, which made every morning magical. Everything was clean and well maintained. The air conditioning worked great, and the room had all the necessary amenities to make our stay comfortable. I appreciated that even though it wasn’t ultra-modern, it suited all our needs perfectly.

Relaxing Beach Time

One of the highlights of my stay was certainly the very nice beach. The powdery white sand and turquoise waters were amazing. There were plenty of sunbeds available, and I had no trouble securing a palapa for shade. The beach offers both lively and quiet spots, which meant I could enjoy relaxation or join in on some beach games. Plus, the sunsets here were absolutely stunning! This part of the experience made my trip truly lovely.

Fun-filled Activities

Jolly Beach Resort keeps you entertained! Throughout my stay, there were a ton of activities offered, from beach volleyball to aqua aerobics. The entertainment staff organized daily games and fun competitions that were engaging for everyone. I even tried my hand at coconut bowling, which was a new and exciting experience for me. It was a great way to socialize and stay active while on vacation!

I had a decent time at the hotel with a mixed experience overall. The location was stunning with beautiful beach views, and the entertainment was top-notch, but the room was quite basic and the food quality left much to be desired. The friendly staff made the experience a bit better, but improvements are needed in dining and room comfort to truly make this place shine.

This hotel is an absolute gem, located right on an exquisite beach with some of the bluest waters I've ever seen. The rooms are clean and come with stunning views, although a bit outdated.
