Dreams Sapphire Resort & Spa

Puerto Morelos, Mexico

Star rating

The hotel

Located in the laid-back fishing town of Puerto Morelos, perfectly positioned between Cancun and Playa del Carmen, Dreams Sapphire Resort & Spa sits along a gorgeous stretch of Caribbean beachfront. This stylish low-rise escape blends contemporary comfort with touches of Mayan design, creating a chilled yet luxurious base for both couples and families. Spacious rooms come with balconies or terraces overlooking lush tropical gardens or the sparkling ocean, and with Unlimited-Luxury® you can enjoy 24-hour room service, premium drinks and gourmet dining across five à la carte restaurants, ideal for everything from long, lazy lunches to late-night cravings. Days here can be as relaxing or as action-packed as you like. Unwind at the dreamy spa with its hydrotherapy circuit, or dive into endless fun at the splash park and towering water slides. Little ones are looked after brilliantly at the Explorer’s Club with games, crafts and beachside adventures, while grown-ups slip away for some well-earned downtime. And if it’s a special getaway for two, upgrading to an Indigo Preferred Club room unlocks those extra-luxurious touches and exclusive spaces that make your stay feel even more indulgent.

We had our wedding at Dreams Sapphire Resort and Spa and had an amazing experience. Our coordinator was incredible from start to finish. She kept us informed throughout the entire process and made sure every detail was handled, including special requests. We planned for over a year and worked closely with the wedding team to make sure everything came together perfectly. The events were beautiful and well organized, and our guests had a great time. The DJ did a great job keeping the energy up and the dance floor was full all night. The food, service, and amenities were all excellent. Guests especially enjoyed the restaurants, room service, and activities around the resort. The staff was friendly and helpful across the board, and everything felt very well coordinated. We also really enjoyed the spa experience and the variety of things to do throughout the stay. Overall, it was a wonderful experience and we would absolutely return. We highly recommend this resort for a wedding or vacation! Read less

Horrible hotel, very dirty and outdated even tho being presented as "remodel" boring and food is low quality. Very rude staff. Beach was empty because no one was able to use it due to seaweed. The entire hotel smells like rotten seaweed. Room was missing a lot of stuff, coffee cups. robes. slippers and the hot tub in the balcony was dirty.

Paid for a swim up room. Told after I couldn’t have it the full time and that they will refund me the monies owed within 20 days. I chased it yesterday and today they tell me it will take another 12 days to pay my money back. Ridiculous.

Paid for a swim up room. Told after I couldn’t have it the full time and that they will refund me the monies owed within 20 days. I chased it yesterday and today they tell me it will take another 12 days to pay my money back. Ridiculous. I won’t comment too much on the poor service however one evening they took drinks off my table and put them on another table after my daughter drank from a glass. What an odd thing to do. Why not get more. They try and speed you up with sending starters at the same time as a main in the restaurants. Sun loungers are aggressive. Wake up at 3am to put a towel out or they are all gone.
