wonderful place, great service amenities and restaurants,,, food was great
Beautiful hotel with great facilities, super friendly and helpful staff. Breakfast a real highlight, one of the best buffet breakfasts we have experienced. Delightful not to experience any of the usual sunbed challenges around the pool. Super windy weather made shade quite difficult though as staff stopped us putting up umbrellas and the access to the beach/sea was quite difficult. Games room was a great asset but could do with some love & attention as wasn’t a place you wanted to dwell in. Would highly recommend Abaton.
Beautiful hotel! We loved our stay at Abaton Island Resort. The half board food package was amazing too! Would highly recommend!

Nice lobby and nice staff. Good breakfast. That’s where the good ends. The hotel itself is quite old and in need of good renovation. There are some signs of limited updates, but overall the facility is showing its age. Overall, it feels like an old all inclusive hotel in Cancun that have seen its better days. The worst part is how the shower and sink and toilet are played out. Insanity. We wouldn’t pick it again if we were in Crete.
An exceptional hotel. We stayed for 10 days and it was absolutely wonderful. Relaxing, fantastic facilities, rooms, food, service, everything was excellet One of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. Highly recommend.
Staff were very friendly and helpful. Hotel was beautiful and well looked after. Breakfast and dinner buffets were very good. Dinner at the hotel steakhouse restaurant was disappointing….pricey as expected, but the food was very mediocre
