Are you worried about getting sick from the food or Covid? We didn’t have any issues with the food, it was delicious and didn’t bother our stomachs. If your worried about Covid, you can wear your mask to feel more safe and there is hand sanitizer everywhere. You also have to wear your mask and a gloves in the buffet to keep everyone safe.

Thanks for the video, looking to go in July, What were the mask rules and what is your thoughts on the swim up rooms?

@WherewegoingNext

You only have to wear a mask at the buffet. Masks are no longer mandatory in Dominican, but the hotel has kept them at the buffet to make people feel safe. We toured a swim out room and it was gorgeous - we have a video on our channel if you’d like to see. They are not super private, but who doesn’t want a pool outside their room 🤷🏼‍♀️

Hey! Loved the in-depth info you gave and about to check your hotel tour video as I'm seriously considering the Ambar. I watched your Tulum Bahia video - how would you compare the two? Are they similar distance/walking to different places around the resort? Was the beach better in Punta Cana? Also if you know how far the drive was from the airport to Ambar? Would love to know! Thanks :)

@WherewegoingNext

10 ай бұрын

Comparing Akumal and Tulum, I would say that the resort and rooms are newer and nicer at Tulum (although the rooms are slowly being redone at Akumal) but the beach is better at Akumal. Akumal also has an adults only section with a pool, whereas Tulum doesn’t. If you stay at akumal, you can visit and eat at Tulum but not vice versa. There are trolleys that take you between hotels, but they are walkable (15-20 mins). It takes about 1.5 hours to get to these resorts from Cancun airport. The beach in Punta Cana is different and unpredictable. In the best conditions, it will be better than the Tulum beach - but un the worst conditions, it’s un-swimmable with strong waves and lots of seaweed. The beach at Tulum/Akumal is sheltered a bit by man made dunes, but it’s important to note that the ocean is a bit rocky, so bring water shoes!

Hello. I know you can access the restaurants in Ambar if you stay in Aquamarine but are you able to access the coffee shop as well?

very well done video, considering staying at the Ambar resort in January, never been. A question: My daughter and I like less crowded beaches and vegetation: if we keep walking does the beach have more remote areas/ (we can walk miles). Thanks

Hi from Ottawa Canada! Recently stumbled upon your videos. They’ve been very informative while we choose which resort to stay at. Based on your experience, do you prefer the Ambar or Aquamarine? There is a decent price difference between the two. We’re just wondering if paying a little more to stay at the Ambar is worth it. Thanks and keep up the good work!
