Secrets Huatulco Resort & Spa - Adults Only - All Inclusive
Not a great stay, the property is not well maintained and the food and beverages are not great. The staff is amazing but it doesn't make up for all of the shortcomings on the property. Not at all like any other Secrets properties and for sure not a 4.5 star experience
