• "Hi Lin! You have done a great job once again helping us choose a great place to stay! Everyone had a great time especially the kids. No one wanted to go home. Dreams was a great place- the staff goes above and beyond what you expect. They remember your name and your favorite drink. I seriously never finished a glass before I had a fresh one in hand. The rooms were clean and looked just like the site. The food was great and my kids loved the around the clock room service too. And the kids liked the Virgin drinks that were offered to them so they felt fancy! LOL! Again, thanks so much for helping us have a great family getaway." 

• "Good morning Linda, thank you very much for arranging such a wonderful trip. The resort was gorgeous, and the staff was exceptional; they were so friendly and accommodating. The restaurants were delicious and always willing to work with us to seat our party together (we had a party of 23). The Apple representatives (Dani and Israel) were great! They recommended a couple of excursions which were fantastic!! We did the ATV/zip-lines/underground cave with water and it was so much fun. I especially enjoyed the zip lines. The staff were all very friendly and welcoming for the excursions. The second excursion we did was the catamaran sunset cruise. I would highly recommend this; we went snorkeling, paddle boarding, toured la Islas mujures, enjoyed watching the sun set, and they provided lunch with unlimited beverages (liquor included). The resort was gated and we always had someone responsible for us at all times when we left the resort, so we felt safe during our stay. The only thing negative that I have to say is that there was a lot of seaweed in the ocean which made it impossible to go in, and there was a fishy smell coming from the excess seaweed. The resort did its best to keep it clean, but as I heard a lot of beaches in the riviera maya have this problem. The pools were a wonderful alternative though, and I loved the swim up bar and infinity pool. I wish that there was more music played by the pool area, but I do understand that this is a family resort. The entertainment was terrific, and they had various activities throughout the day/night; they even had a casino night. There was a club/sports bar on site which was fun, but closed at 1am. All in all, this was an amazing experience which I would gladly recommend to anyone interested in vacationing here. Thanks again, looking forward to the next vacation!" - Christina M Diaz

Smallest of the 3 Sandals properties. It's  boutique style of 169 rooms. Enchanting Garden grounds with Bouganvillea cottage rooms with gardens or beach view. Everywhere you walk, the grounds are filled with gardens of flowers, all around you. It's a Laid back atmosphere compared to the other two properties:  Grande and La Toc. Lively enough, with 2 pools + 2 swim up bars (1 beach, 1 garden)

The gazebos near the beach offer intimate breakfasts and dinners for those special occasions, with lovely views either early am or late pm.

The Couples Massage in the gardens offer a relaxing time to feel gentle hand lossening muscles and softening the body as only massages are capable of doing.

Dining options were numerous and the food was Great, everywhere we ate.

• Kelly's Dockside - Over water restaurant with great views and even greater food, accompanied by a pianist, while dining.
• Mario's Italian - White glove restaurant where attention to detail is the standard from the Maitre D' who greets you to the wine service selection. Where depending upon what you're wearing, you'll get a white or a black napkin. It's that kind of thought to detail that makes Mario's a dining experience, not to be missed.
• Kimonos and Soy - Japanese style restaurant where the chef demostrates his culinary skills around the cooking surface where diners are entertained, while waiting for their dinner, keeping the diners both smiling and satisfied. At Soy's they will prepare your sushi to order, and you can even enjoy some evening appetizers in the gardens.

The desserts are everywhere and for all of the honeymooners, or celebrations of every kind, Indulge and Enjoy! Their Pastry Chef and his staff are to be praised, for decadent delights!

• Bayside Restaurant is the buffet for all times of day or night - up until 3 am! For all of the casual times of your stay, along with the Beach Bar and Grill, where you can get a nice bite to eat, while gazing at the ocean.

The Staff is the Best Part of Halcyon. Always Smiling and making every effort to make your stay a wonderful memory. The size of the property allows for privacy and yet, it's easy to get around to everything on the grounds.

All of the other guests, who we spoke to and have visited the other Sandals properties on the island, that Halcyon is the most centered of the three, and they were happy that they had made the choice to stay where they were, as we were also!

"Lin helped my husband Tim and I plan an amazing trip to Italy. Lin set up all hotel reservations and ground transportation. It was so nice to have all of our train tickets ahead of time. She also set up day tours for us. It was great to have a car pick us up at our hotel and meet our guide and then bypass all the long lines! Our accomodations were more than we could have hoped for! Perfect location for walking and exploring! It was a trip we will always remember. Thank you Lin for making it so memorable!" - Mary Jo Foley
