Pros: Great a la carte restaurants, huge pools, love the Beach BBQ and pizzeria for quick bites.
Cons: The rooms while clean and comfortable, are in need of an update in terms of fixtures and their room service menu presentation. This resort requires use of towel cards, which is a bit of pet peeve for me, because I think it’s a dated practice. The buffet was lacking and unimpressive.
Azul Beach Riviera Cancun formerly known as Azul Sensatori is an affordable all-inclusive option for vacationers looking for a family-friendly option in the Riviera Maya. While the resort has a lot of positives, there are certain aspects of the property that could use some improvement -- specifically its rooms need some serious updating, the antiquated towel card policy and a buffet that just misses the mark.

The lobby area is really the hub of resort as it not only prov

Pros: Amazing staff, Wonderful wedding staff, great food, a lot of options for everyone,
Cons: planning a wedding via email - responses can be a bit slower, Lomas Shuttle service was unavailble, beach is just OK
Overall, we LOVED our time at Azul Senstatori in Riviera Maya – probably the best vacation we’ve had! We spent 9 wonderful days at the resort and we felt like celebrities the entire week – every staff member knew us and went above and beyond to make sure our stay, and our 58 guests, were having the best experience. We arrived to Azul on Monday, got married on Friday, and left the following Wednesday. We managed to convince 49 adults and 9 children among our friends and family to travel to Mexico

Pros: Nice Facility, Beautiful Beach
Cons: Everything else...
My now-husband and I were married here on February 27, 2017. This is a review of the resort and the wedding staff, which I'll write separately since they're basically separate entities. RESORT: The grounds are gorgeous and the rooms are very nice. We booked a swim-up suite. We checked in and were led by a bellhop to our room. We were escorted to a suite with a balcony, but not a "swim-up." When I asked the bellhop if this was a swim-up suite, he told me no; I explained the situation, he called

Pros: wedding department, organized, clean, extremely friendly, amazing place
Cons: outside vendor fees
We had our wedding on the sky deck January 21, 2017 with over 50 guests with a beach reception by building 3. All our guests were onsite except for 1 and everyone absolutely loved it. We had our honeymoon straight after everyone left so we were there a total of 10 days. It was amazing every step of the way, the wedding team was dynomite, Ashly and Hommer, thank you for everything, I was a trainwreck of nerves but as soon as we met, I knew you would have it under control and you did more than tha

Pros: Onsite Wedding Team, Pools, Food
Cons: Miami Wedding Team, Slow Service, Beach
Food
Food was good, not gourmet but good. You must try the taco bar in the Mexican restaurant for lunch, so good! Room service was sometimes slow but we ordered it most nights very late after we had been out. Shrimp quesadillas were my favorite! The BBQ on the beach was pretty good as well for lunch.
Rooms
We were given a room in the adult’s only section for the first two nights, not sure why people would pay more for that section because the rooms are much smaller. The elevator in our b

Pros: Wonderful on site wedding team, fabulous resort staff, excellent food, Brides Dress Rehearsal
Cons: Off site WC, ridiculous outside vendor fees, Karisma excludes Canadians from promos, expensive decor rentals
Overall we are very happy with our experience at the Azul Sensatori. Some photos of our wedding can be found here:

We chose the Azul Sensatori because we had a large group coming from all over the world that included a whole bunch of kids. There are direct flights to Cancun from almost everywhere, and the resort is truly and excellent place to vacation for all ages.
The wedding planning was quite frustrating at times. Our coord

Pros: On-site WC team, resort, food

My wedding at Azul Sensatori exceeded my expectations. It was more than I could have asked for and all of my guests raved about the wedding and their time at the hotel. If I could go back in time, knowing what I know now, I would not have worried as much as I did. This thread was so helpful in planning our wedding. To the women who answered my questions and gave such great advice (@murmel), I can’t thank you enough. While the planning had plenty of frustrations, my wedding day was absolutely

Cons: OUTRAGEOUS VENDOR FEES!!!!
Week we visited Azul Sensatori: June 24 – July 1, 2012
Wedding day: Tuesday, June 26

Number of guests: 15 (including 3 teens, 1 tween, 1 infant)
NOTE: This is my second wedding so we wanted to keep it small (only invited immediate family), had no wedding party, and had my 2 children participate in a sand ceremony with us. I in no

I chose the Azul Sensatori for our beach wedding because I had heard amazing things about the resort. Our first time visiting the resort was our wedding week.
Miami Wedding Coordinator
I had Grace, and she was fine. Nothing amazing, and nothing terrible. I knew that it was going to be slow responces to my emails initially, and that near the end she would answer them quicker, just as the other ladies on BDW described. I didn't use her much to be honest, as I trusted the ladies on BDW m

We just got back from our destination at Azul Sensatori resort and we have almost NO negative things to say. But want to give a full and accurate review for other brides & potential brides. So here it goes....
We booked with Destinationweddings.com and thought they did a great job for the small fee you pay to join the site. We had Brittany Schiffler as our TA and she was so friendly and amazing. She really helped me through a lot of drama and stress planning the wedding, I couldn't h

Pros: They really pull everything together once you meet with the onsite coordinators.
Cons: There are going to be some bumps in the road...it's a destination wedding. Don't sweat the small stuff.
Review on my wedding experience
Welcome Party on 05.27.11 and Wedding on 05.28.11
Planning: We booked our wedding through bestdestinationweddings.com. Our first representative was not so great. We were reassigned to Debbie Ryan. If you get her, rest assured she will take good care of you. She also answers emails and telephone calls in a very timely fashion. Our first LOMAS representative left some room to be desired as well. We were reassigned to Elizabeth Riffin a

My Azul Sensatori Wedding Experience Review
I want to begin by saying that we had an amazing wedding and we, as well as all of our guests, had a PHENOMENAL time! In hindsight, I spent too much time during the weeks prior to our wedding in planning mode and not enough time “living in the moment” of our potential union celebration. Second, I want to thank all of the past AS brides who shared advice, guidance, and their experiences with me and the rest of this amazing forum thread. I re

Pros: Pools, Wedding, Rooms, Service
Cons: Probably none
We had the best wedding ever and the staff are amazing. All of our guest said it was the best wedding they had ever experienced. We have absoulutely no complaints! The rooms are clean, the food is great, the pools are emaculate. I have never been treated like such royalty and want to thank all of the sensatori staff for making me feel like a princess on my wedding day. We had a blast!

Pros: Perfect wedding, beautiful scenery, great service

I figured I would do my part and post about my wedding since I really appreciated reading others' reviews. I found it extremely helpful and I think it was part of the reason that my wedding was PERFECT. I posted my review of the hotel on tripadvisor, so I will stick solely to wedding-related info here.
Erika Torres was my coordinator in Miami who did all the pre-planning with me. She did an amazing job, and everything we talked about was arranged exactly as planned. On site, Claudia and

Pros: Beautiful Resort and Excellent Service
Cons: Inconsistancy in information between coordinators
My review may be slightly different than others. We joined Karisma’s Exotic Travellers Club during our first site visit (March 2010). We paid a pretty penny for our membership, so my expectations were pretty high, which might make some comments snooty. But this review might be helpful if any other future brides decide to join Exotic. Which I definitely recommend!
Booking Rooms: I booked all of my guests’ rooms directly through Exotic. Due to our membership, we have a larger discount

Pros: Resort is very nice and they take care of everything

My review of the Azul Sensatori resort. We were married on May 15, 2011. Overall, the wedding week, and day were AMAZING! I was very nervous going down but as I look back on that day it was so effortless and yes there were a couple things that went wrong but I didn’t really notice! I had the time of my life and it was exactly the way I pictured it!
Our Greeting: We were offered champagne and a cold towel upon arrival at the resort. A staff member checked us in and walked us around. S

Hey everyone, so here is my review of the Azul Sensatori resort where we were married 5/2/11. I am going to write a very full and thorough review, noting the good and the bad. Overall, the wedding week, and day were AMAZING! But, there were some things with the wedding planning that were very disappointing since I have always read that when you get there, it all flows seamlessly. So, let’s get on with it.

Pros: Food and service outstanding. Wedding coordinators really know what they are doing!
Cons: The beach :(
So I am finally sitting down to do my review. We got married January 24, 2011. We were absolutely thrilled that we decided to do the wedding down south, and everything worked out great! I also really tried to remember that we were in Mexico, and that not everything was going to be perfect. And if you can remember that, everything will indeed work out in the end!
Arrival: Arriving in Cancun is simple. Just have to avoid the timeshare sales people and porters. If you have never travelled t

Our wedding took place on the beach at the Azul Sensatori resort on July 31, 2010. I hope this review will help everyone in the planning phase and anyone who is considering the Azul Sensatori (AS) for their wedding.
There were a few things that were necessary when looking for a resort. First it had to be an all inclusive resort. Second it had to allow children because my husband and I have 3 teenagers between us and two other children were coming. The resort had to allow weddings t
