"We stayed for 8 nights at Solaris Lighthouse with 2 kids ages 11 and 12.
Things that were great:
-Rooms were clean and housekeeping was super great. They refresed water bottles, towls, and cleaned everyday. AC was good in the rooms.
-The breakfast buffet was great! We loved the omlette and crepe bar. Pool snack bar was good and fresh. Everybody always found something to eat.
-Pools were never too crowded and kept clean. Lots of chairs and towels to go around.
-staff was always super friendly and happy to help.
-The banquet/party nights were awesome. Mexican night, father’s day etc.
-The spa is great! I had a great massage.
Things that could stand to improve
-To be clear, the beach is not swimmable at all.
-The swim up bar was was understaffed in my opinion. You often had to stand around a while to get served. They played music very loud.
-the reservation restaurants (don gus, francescos, but we couldn’t get into tavo) are mid at best. I would put it in the wedding food category.
-There is not a ton for kids to do. Aside from swim in the 2 of 3 pools. Could use an arcade, pool slides, games, anything to occupy tweens.
-this is a timeshare resort, and when you first get there, they will heavily try to sell you on it. We really just wanted to get to our room when we first got there not listen to a pitch.
Overall, we had a great time at the resort. We were comfortable and well fed. We got off resort a lot for dinner and fun. But it worked well as a home base."
