The Reef Playacar on the Mayan Riviera looks like a wonderful place to stay with plenty of suna dn fun. Like many resorts they cator to the all inclusive crowd as well as pay as you go. Their property has two cerulean swimming pools a jacuzzi, a kid’s pool and club house, with all kinds of activities including dance lessons, water basketball, water polo, tennis cours, sailboats, kayaking, scuba, windsurfing, snorkeling and bicycles. You name the activity and chances are The Reef can accomodate you.

Now if only their web site was that accomodating. Before we start looking at ways to improve the site, they get kudos right off for having an image gallery available right from the top of the page. From there though you get lost as the page navigation is only at the bottom of the page. The site has some wonderful images, but it needs a visual and code overhaul to make it easier for people to find out about their lucious property.

After quickly reviewing their site they weighed in with a number of issues on the main page.
- 45 HTML errors
-CSS passed.
-Failed accessibility test

Overall I would give the site a C.

There is so much potential that I hope someday is realized with this site.
