We stayed at HRRM from March 31 through April 7 in Building 7, in a Deluxe Gold room with two full beds. The beds and overall room setup were exactly what our family of four needed. We intentionally booked a basic room because we’re not a family that spends much time lounging indoors, and the space met that expectation well. While the room was on the smaller side, it comfortably held the two double beds plus a rollaway that our exceptional butlers, Irmin and Vincente, thoughtfully secured for us upon arrival. Their attentiveness started immediately and set the tone for the entire week.
One challenge we encountered was how damp the room felt. We’re accustomed to humidity and cooler temperatures due to the tropical environment, but the level of wetness was more extreme than expected. Fortunately, the AC worked very well and helped make the space comfortable overall.
The food across the resort was enjoyable for an all inclusive experience. We dined twice at Ciao and once each at Zen, Frida’s, and Toro. Breakfast and lunch offerings were somewhat repetitive, though we especially enjoyed breakfast at Toro and Isla. A major highlight of our stay was the outstanding care provided by Irmin and Vincente, who consistently went above and beyond to ensure we were well taken care of as HOF guests. They made sure we had nightly dinner reservations secured—an incredible amenity that saved us from children’s hangry meltdowns and ensured no one ever went hungry. Their proactive planning and warm communication made dining effortless and stress free.
The resort truly delivered when it came to entertainment for our children. The daytime and poolside activities were nonstop and engaging, and the nightly entertainment we did attend was excellent. We made it to two shows: the member’s circus dinner show held outdoors and the incredible Queen show—both were memorable. We tend to wear ourselves out on vacation by spending all day in the sun and participating in just about every activity available, and this trip was no exception. Our kids loved bracelet making, volleyball, poolside football, beading, trivia, bingo, chatting with our butlers, and interacting with our favorite poolside waiter, Valdo. Irmin and Vincente were also wonderful with the kids, often checking in, socializing, and making them feel special. There was truly never a dull moment.
One of our only minor complaints was the lack of pre and post dinner music or entertainment in the lobby, as well as the absence of a lobby bar—both would have added to the evening atmosphere.
Pool drinks were great, and our friend and pool server Valdo made sure we were always refreshed and taken care of. Overall, our stay was elevated by the incredible service we received, especially from Irmin and Vincente, whose dedication, kindness, and attention to detail genuinely enhanced our vacation and made our family feel valued from start to finish.
The private transportation to and from the resort was excellent and added another layer of ease to our vacation. Everything was well organized, punctual, and stress free, allowing us to start and end our trip on a positive note. Throughout our stay, we felt very safe and comfortable, whether relaxing by the pool, walking the grounds, or attending evening activities. The overall sense of security and care made it easy for us to fully relax and enjoy our time as a family.
