    One of the best AYCE buffets I've ever had-- tasted even better knowing it was included in the resort :') For COVID safety purposes, some staff wear masks, and tables are sanitized frequently and thoroughly. The waitstaff are incredibly attentive and friendly, though definitely trying to upsell La Veranda's specialty drinks (charged at an extra cost to the card presented at check-in, though usually $5 or less). I think breakfast and lunch serve the same items, though dinner changes by the weekday. Some nights, the patio area has additional stalls that serve other dishes like tacos, paella, etc. Performers sing or dance nightly to accompany meals, usually matching the "theme" of the evening (ex. American, Italian, Asian). The quality and variety is phenomenal-- my photos barely capture the array of dishes available every day. I had to laugh at some of the options clearly pandering towards to average picky American eater (WHO GOES TO CANCUN FOR HOT DOGS AND PIZZA) My only gripe is that multiple beverages or soups are left out without lids... Dust or dirt could easily settle in and sink into the liquid :S And several dishes are left out without a sneeze guard... Who knows what happens then. NOTE: swimsuits aren't permitted in La Veranda-- clothing/coverups required to check in for any meal. You'll need to provide your room number each time.

    Very nice spacious place with indoor and outdoors seating. The staff is really on top of their game. They make sure your happy satisfied and full when you leave. I would recommend the shrimp ceviche good portion fresh and tasty. They also have a buffet style dining. The food is not bad at all. I stuck to the menu as oppose to buffet as I'm more into quality not quantity. If you order a glass of wine red or white it's always chilled. Tried a mojito not bad but I added a shot of rum cause it was slightly weak! For a hotel restaurant you can't go wrong here. They do breakfast lunch and dinner. Full bar clean place clean bathrooms. My suggestion is make sure the food is cooked well.

    Their breakfast is better than lunch.

    I was at this buffet for 2 days so far (breakfast & lunch). Their breakfast is like a normal breakfast any restaurant serves, but in buffet style. However, it's slightly more limited, and when something runs out, they either take a while to replace it, or just switch it out with something from the lunch menu. They have a place on a counter where they also give out freely squeezed watermelon juice. When I went, the food was pretty ok, and tasted sort of store bought. The smoked salmon was the best thing they had to offer, since it wasn't super salty. However, I suggest not eating their donuts. I don't know if it was just that day I was there, but when I was, the donuts weren't good. At lunch the following day, the food was even more limited than breakfast, having multiple places serving the same food. I was somewhat disappointed in the food they made, since I had tried and disliked the majority of it. The salad bar was messy. I'm guessing some rowdy people decided to be picky and mess it up. If this had happened, I'd expect atleast one of the staff members to clean it up or something. Their steak was quite over cooked and very chewy as well. In a nutshell, breakfast was way better and I'd recommend that over their lunch anytime.

    I'm sure the food's great, however cross contamination of allergies is a non negotiable dealbreaker. MY FIANCE ALMOST DIED!

It's pretty hidden so be sure to look for the Marina Sunrise sign ( see in my pictures). You walk upstairs and through a Starbucks pop up store/convenience store and then back down to the patio. Very small area but all tables have a gorgeous view of the water and if you get there at opening time (8am) like I did, you get to see the guys getting the rental boats ready for a fun day out on the water. This place is sooo inexpensive and really tasty! If you're looking for a break from the overpriced hotel breakfasts, this is your place. For 90 pesos ( roughly $4 USD) you get your choice of eggs, meat, OJ, coffee. That's a serious bargain. I mixed it up and got scrambled eggs with chorizo and got Grapefruit instead of OJ and opted out of coffee since it was already so hot outside. They also provide delicious tortillas. Totally worth every penny and more! Back home a basic breakfast like this would have run me close to $17, so it was nice to get a break for breakfast not costing you as much as other meals. Worth coming by and enjoying a peaceful traditional breakfast.

It happened to be closed on the night we planned to eat there, which was frustrating. Honestly, I wish the resort would provide a schedule at check-in showing which restaurants are open and closed each night. We ran into that issue with more than one restaurant during our trip. For breakfast, Siete is very much a traditional buffet. There's a large selection, but some of the breads and pastries sit out in the open and can get stale pretty quickly. The omelet stations were one of the better features. They have two of them, which helps keep the lines moving, and there are a ton of toppings to choose from. The omelets were pretty good, although like most omelet bars, they were slightly overcooked. The standout part of breakfast was the fresh fruit and smoothie station. I believe the gentleman working there was named Marco, and he was awesome. He made our smoothies three different mornings and was always energetic, friendly, and happy to help people figure out what flavors would work well together. They had an impressive selection of ingredients too, including things like prickly pear, aloe vera, and other fruits and vegetables you don't normally see at a breakfast buffet. They also have cereal, meats, a Bloody Mary station, and plenty of other breakfast options, so there's something for just about everyone. Service overall was just okay, but the hostesses were really nice and welcoming. Not the most amazing breakfast buffet I've ever had, but it was a solid option each morning, and Marco alone made the experience a lot more enjoyable. I would definitely eat breakfast here again.

The smoothies were terrible. Don't bother. Orange juice tastes like it's fresh squeezed. That was a nice surprise. I did go for a quick bite at dinner time one night. Taco bar is the only decent thing I had in there. At any rate, the other restaurants are all booked up most days so this is a good option.

The station had lots of topping choices and there were 2 going at the same time, so no waiting in line. I usually only eat turkey bacon at home, so the real bacon here was a real treat to me! And who doesn't love eating FRESH SMOKED SALMON with breakfast - what a treat! I also had a cantaloupe and pineapple plate and the fruit was so perfectly ripe, it was almost hard to pickup with a fork! My fiancé had the french toast after we heard another couple talking about it at check-in last night ... it truly didn't disappoint! You could see the granules of sugar on top mmmmhmmm! He also made his own chilaquiles ... look at that pickled onion on top - amazing! He also had this really delish candied pear that had a plop of whipped cream on top, as well as other fruits. It was the perfect level of sweet and tart mix. Of course don't forget to order your mimosas and bloody mary's to go along with your epic breakfast!
