We just got home from beloved! The resort is absolutely amazing. We stayed in the casita with a private pool which was absolutely amazing. We were right next to the cafetto and taco truck. Our only complaint was that our room was too hot. The AC was not great. They came to fix it which helped but the room has censors and it shuts off at night. This place is worth every penny. The staff go above and beyond. Loved your video!

Great vid! My gf and I are going in two days, I’m watching this the weekend before we go to get me amped! What is the nightlife options around there? I know playa mujeres is a bit more isolated so I’m wondering if we want to have a night out what to do
@JamieFarmer2 ай бұрын
Thanks! We honestly didn't leave the resort once we were there, so I can't comment much about nightlife outside of Beloved. There is live music every night in Lupita Lounge, some more chill than others. They have a Season's Tours rep in the lobby at check in. You can always check with them. Enjoy your trip!

Hello ..We are thinking about booking at Beloved … it says All Inclusive but also Free Breakfast. What exactly is the dining situation?
@JamieFarmer3 ай бұрын
Hi! Technically, I would say it is about 99% inclusive. We never paid for any food or drinks (other than tips), but there are some higher end wines and champagne they come with a charge. Also, there is a sushi bar, and I think some of the high end Saki is not included. Other than that, all food and drink is included. I'm not sure why they worded it that way ("Free Breakfast"). I can tell you that you should have 4 options for breakfast. 1. La Bisou - substantial breakfast bar and a la carte menu. 2. El Mar - a la carte menu. 3. Cafetto - If all you want is coffee and donuts/pastries 4. Room service. Their website has full menus for all the dining options. Also, I would download The Excellence Collection mobile app. It also has all the menus, schedule of activities, room descriptions, etc. Thanks for watching, and enjoy your trip, wherever you go!

@JamieFarmer3 ай бұрын
Hi! I don't know about everything that comes with the Penthouse, since we weren't expecting the upgrade. I do believe the dinner on the beach is part of the package, it just needs to be scheduled with concierge. Also, we met another couple who was in another Penthouse suite. They had unlimited hydrotherapy visits during their stay, and they did one every day and loved it. I think there are some discounts on spa treatments, and other things. I wished I could tell you more, but as I said, the upgrade was a surprise to us. Enjoy your stay, and thanks for watching!

Asking b/c you mentioned they upgraded you at Beloved. 3; Do you know of any promo codes for Beloved? We just returned from El Dorado Maroma 4/23 & might try Beloved next time. Thank you so much 😊

1. Yes, we booked directly through Beloved all three times we've stayed. We did book our flights separately, but the room was through Beloved. 2. We had the opportunity to visit Excellence the first two times we went to Beloved, but we were having such a relaxing time that we didn't go and visit. I think if you stay 7 nights (maybe less) you can go to Excellence for dinner one night and they will arrange everything. We did get upgraded at Beloved, but I still don't know exactly why. 😀 It was our third trip, and we booked the lowest rate room of Jr Suite, so maybe they just wanted us to get used to the Penthouse. 3. They do have promo codes from time to time. I get them through email, but I think they post them sometimes on their social media pages. You might need to sign up for their email list. We will be back a 4th time for sure.

We are debating going in November. Is the water and beach here dirty or full of seaweed? Did you have any difficulty making reservations on property or get bored of the food or get the stomach flu from eating or drinking on property? How well did the AC work? I like a cold room to sleep in, 67F, ideally. Is the water pressure low, any limited hot water issues, and how well does the wifi work? Are the pools heated? Is the resort loud? Also, did you do the resort airport transfer if, so is it a direct drive, or do they stop at other resorts and take longer? We actually have a swim out suite reserved for November. 😊 Any tips or tricks would be appreciated.
@JamieFarmer3 ай бұрын
I think I answered most of your questions on the July 2023 video, except for the seaweed question. In July of 2023, there was some seaweed, but it wasn't bad. There had been storms out which I think stirred it up a bit. Any seaweed that is washed up on shore during the night, they come through and clean it off. That being said, the beach section right in front of the resort does have sea foliage (grass?) on the ocean floor where you walk. It feels weird on your feet, especially if you're expecting sand only. Even though we got upgraded to the Penthouse Suite this time, we're definitely going with a swim up suite next trip. We enjoy hanging by the pool more than the beach, and the swim up suites still get waiter service just like the pools do. This was our third time, but we met several couples who were on their 9th or 10th trip. One couple said it was their 10th time since 2018.

Hi, I'll try and answer all your questions. We've stayed for 7 days two times now. Our next trip will be 4 days. In the 7 days, neither of us got bored of the food, but I suppose that could depend on your taste preference. The room service menu has the largest amount of options, and that's included as well. I know if you book a 7 night stay, you get a dinner pass at Excellence next door, which has more options. We had no stomach issues either that I can remember. The resort is very walkable. We always felt close to everything. AC was very cold! It will turn off if you open the balcony door, FYI. No issues with water pressure, showers are great! I had no issues with Wifi, watching KZread and I think I watched some Netflix one day while it was raining. I think 2 of the pools are heated, but we went in July so I'm sure it was turned off. Resort is very quiet. It's couples only, so no single crowds, etc. We used their Airport Transfer that is included (with 3+ day stay I think). It's private, straight to the resort with no stops, nice full sized SUV with snacks, water, AC, etc. Awesome experience. We'll be there in less than 2 weeks, and I'll try and post another video.

Thanks! This one is 13x29, with a 3.5 shallow to 5.5 deep end. I researched for weeks on fiberglass and liner, and had different companies come out with quotes. We could have gotten a slightly larger vinyl liner pool for comparable price, but even the vinyl installer said figure in replacing the liner in 7 years. At the end of the day, the lower maintenance costs of fiberglass sold me.
How many days is this tracking? This isn't all one day?!
I think the video itself was 8 or 9 different days.
That looks amazing. Doesn't look all that deep though... Maybe what 5 feet from the camera view? It's so pretty! Enjoy your swim!
Thanks. Yes, 3.5 to 5.5 shallow to deep end.
I wonder why they put steps all along one end of the pool. Is this a lap pool for people that don't swim laps? Nice idea but......
It's fiberglass, and we specifically picked this one out from a catalog of hundreds of choices. The steps have wider seated areas on the left and right side. It's perfect for what we wanted.
Nice job. When we installed fiberglass pools 40 years ago, we laid them in a bed of sand then washed sand in around the pool. I've never seen it done with gravel before. Interesting....
I believe gravel is the preferred material nowadays. Sand is just too "fluid" when it gets wet.
Y’all didn’t bond and ground it?
It is. The camera angle is set, and only captures part of the installation process. All of the equipment, etc. is out of view of this camera shot.
Wow to that block size! Makes the pool look small!
What do you mean with block size?
Surprised the installer didn't bring in a large water truck to fill the pool vice using the Home owner's water and hose. Yikes...
Our water bill was about $50 more the month of the install. Cheaper than a water truck. 👍
All you have to do is call the water company and tell them you're filling a pool and you'll only be charged for the water itself....no sewer. Most people aren't aware sewer is what makes your bill so high.
We're on septic, but city sewer you are correct.
👍🇬🇧💂 You missed the people swimming on the swimming 🥽 pool😊
How much would a pool like that come out with installation and finished. That’s a nice looking pool.
I love it, such a a great job. It looks beautiful 🥰 Enjoy your swim 🏊
Good video
Nice👍🏼 What size is this pool?
Thanks. It's 13x29. Shallow end is 3.5 feet, deep end is 5.5 feet.
@Michelle Morris We are in the south Atlanta area, and we used A Better Pool. Their link is in the video description.
No, I could dunk from the age of 14.... 🤷♂️
