Definitely deserves a 5 star rating, as I have nothing but good to say about this resort. Very well maintained and designed so walking is minimal. I liked the fact that all facilities could be used, including the older El Cid facilities. With children, I would choose the El Cid Marina area, as the pool is much more family friendly and lively.

Fantastic family vacation at Ventus

My wife and I and two kids (7 and 3) had a wonderful time at Ventus resort. We booked the Platinum 1-bdrm suite package and upgraded onsite to a swimout suite with a pool off our patio. Best decision we could have made! The kids were up early swimming while my wife and I enjoyed room service on our loungers. Platinum access with top shelf drinks and internet access was a must and well used.
Our butler, Xavier, was amazing!! He really went out of his way to make sure we had everything we needed and our stay was the best it could be.
The pools, bars and restaurants were all excellent and all of the service from everyone from concierge and Platinum Club staff to maids, room service, bartenders, waiters and golf cart drivers was top notch excellent. The buffets had limited selection but they did change it up enough daily to offer variety - there was always something for everyone. The Mercado de Dolores and Cafe Amore was such a cool venue and while the kids grew tired of it (despite always finding something to satisfy them), my wife and I were big fans.
The kids especially enjoyed the main pool with the diving pool and the waterslides with all the activities put on by the entertainment event staff. The evening entertainment was excellent as well with Lady Gaga, Beyonce and Elvis being our favourites, as well as the Fire Show.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would come back again and again, without question! [Details]

The strong points
Platinum Club was worth the extra money, as was the one bedroom swimout suite. Pre-ordered early morning room service was extremely handy and a nice touch.
The weak points
Beach was pretty small, but really well maintained. We didn't spend much time on the beach as the water wasn't as appealing as we remember due to the Sargassum issue (not the hotels fault - not casting any blame or negative reflection on the hotel).
