We were looking for a top-tier experience; however, we didn't want the high energy of the beach club/hotels. Hotel Shibari was our oasis. The hotel life is centered around the cenote. Mornings are quiet, with ambient music. In the afternoons, a DJ plays dance music, but a lighter version of the beach club scene. Swimming in the cenote is amazing - clear water, abundant fish, perfect temperature to cool off after relaxing in the sun. The staff are always available to address your needs, food and drink, sunblock, snacks, etc. When we wanted more privacy, the pool and hot tub area was often empty, and the swim-up bar was great!
