What our guests says about facilities

The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Really good Gourmet Experience

I was blown away by the dining options at Unico! The highlight was definitely Mi Carisa, the Italian restaurant. The ambiance was intimate, and the food was excellent. I especially loved the fresh pasta and good appetizers. Another great spot was Cueva Siete, where we indulged in authentic Mexican cuisine. The guacamole cart was a fun touch, and the family-style dining made for a nice evening with friends. The food truly exceeded my expectations, and I appreciated not having a buffet option for dinner.

Heavenly Spa Retreat

My spa experience at Unico was absolutely very nice! I treated myself to a couples massage, and it was one of the best I've ever had. Before the massage, we enjoyed the hydrotherapy circuit that included a sauna, a hot tub, and a cold plunge pool. The staff were attentive, ensuring that we had everything we needed. The ambiance was serene, and I felt completely relaxed afterward, ready to enjoy the rest of my vacation.

Luxurious & Comfortable Suite

We stayed in a stunning swim-up suite that provided all the luxury we expected. The outdoor soaking tub on our private patio was a perfect spot to unwind with a drink in hand. Inside, the room was spacious and beautifully decorated. I loved the personal touches, like being able to choose our room scent and the stocked minibar that catered to our preferences. It truly made us feel special throughout our stay!

Great Fitness Facilities

The gym at Unico was well-equipped and had everything I needed for my workouts. It was a bit crowded in the mornings, but they offered a range of free weights and cardio machines. I particularly enjoyed the morning yoga classes, which helped me start the day feeling energized. The fitness activities were well-organized, and the instructors were motivating, making my active time at the resort truly enjoyable.
