Iberostar Selection Playa Mita: Fantastic Resort with amazing food and activities!

This is the most modern up-to-date resort I have ever visited...eg. WIFI everywhere - rooms, restaurants, pool areas, all included. Extremely clean and well kept. The pool area is clean with plenty of chairs and shade and the beach also has lots of chairs and umbrellas with help to put them where you wish to sit. Also the beach is clean and we walked and ran it daily (5 k). Many people playing in the waves. The food and service was excellent with various restaurants so never boring. The staff ar [... read more]e more than helpful with any question or request. Various bars with entertainment and shows gave us great nightly entertainment! On a 5-star scale this is a 10-star resort!!! Will be returning!

Meigas Binniguenda: Binni is the very best

We have just returned from Binniguenda hotel and must say that this is the nicest all round resort we have visited in the few years. It is clean, the staff are extremely friendly, the food is very good, rooms are quite nice and the grounds are beautiful. The beach club is very small but the water is calm and they look after you very well down there. We will be returning to this resort again for sure.

Grand Sirenis Riviera Maya: Amazing rooms!

This was our 5th hot spot trip and we were overwhelmed with the quality and size of the rooms. The tub was big enough for 2 and the showers as well with multiple settings. We had a free 2 night room upgrade and there was a little confusion in the move, we were compensated with fruit baskets, champagne, Tequila and reservations at the Japanese restaurant. The gorunds seem expansive but it was easy to find our way around and everything was actually quite close. Plenty of chairs for everyone, enter [... read more]tainment every evening. The bike tour was enlightning with our knowledgable and good hunoured guide.

Riu Santa Fe: Excellent resort

This resort exceeded my expectations. Staff were friendly, excellent food and drinks, hotel room was spotless and great having bar fridge. Great resort for families. Walking distance to great shopping and food.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: very good , not amazing

very clean resort, rooms were standard with friendly staff, there were no rooms with two queen beds so my son slept on a sofa bed, food was good but you must eat at the different restaurants on site not just the buffets, recommend the kyoto japanese food, pool bar and beach were great

Barcelo Maya Colonial: amazing resort BUT

We were for 11 nights. The first 7 were great in every aspect and then we became aware that there was going to be a convention. 2000 people showed up and service tanked. Staff was refocused from service for all and completely focused on the convention. Oon one day we were refused dining indoors and restricted to outside restaurants. Cold food and selection was a whole lot less. If you want to get the service you paid for, this is not the resort for you. They appear to want the commercial busine [... read more]ss only. ALL the people we came in contact with on our return were of the same mind. The tour operator was caught off guard and did not know about the events until the convention started. The resort avoided the tour operators requests for responses and they may be dropping the resort from their list of choices.

Meigas Binniguenda: Still very good but ...

This hotel continues to offer excellent service, clean rooms, better than average buffet-style food, very good pool and amenities, and excellent evening entertainment. The beach location is also very good. Two problems: a sewer smell in our room (and that of our friends) unless the airconditioning was on; and inadequate signage and lack of enforcement regarding smoking. The evening we arrived, we noticed a cluster of perhaps eight Canadian women smoking next to the the lounge - the only place th [... read more]at had signs indicating smoking was permitted. By next afternoon, the smokers had taken over the prime lounge chairs by the pool and the porch by the entrance. These were heavily addicted chain smokers, lighting up every 10 minutes or so - despite the immediate presence of young Mexican couples with kids ranging from one to perhaps eight years. The Binneguenda needs to install specific "No-smoking" signs and enforce the rules. (NOTE: THE RATINGS BELOW ARE PREDICATED ON THIS!]

Dreams Huatulco: Great resort for both young and old!!

I recently travelled to the Dreams Resort, Huatulco. I was traveling with my brother his wife and my aging parents. My dad is 82 and my mother is 77. They are both deaf and have some mobility issues. The everyone was very helpful from the airport to the hotel. The staff were very friendly and made our trip great. The pools were easily accessible and the staff very attentive when you wanted a drink there was always someone there to bring one! Sometime we chose a quiet pool area sometimes we went  [... read more]to the infinity pools out front where the view out to the ocean was gorgeous! We played volleyball in the pool or on the beach and soaked up the sun. My parents fed the fish on the shore while we snorkelled with them further out! We took a kayak out and paddled around the beautiful bay. The restaurants great very little waiting and no reservations required for the ala carts! The food was great and so was the service. We went on a fishing trip where we saw huge schools of Dolphins, a very memorable sight! Then my brother caught a large Mahi Mahi followed by a few bonito fish. Huatulco is a beautiful place and the Dreams resort is the place to stay!

Catalonia Yucatan: mayan retreat

it was a very nice resort, people were fantastic. rooms good. my only complaint was that a la carte restaurant did not prebook so waiting in line was long. but once in the food was very good. prebooking would save the guests a lot of time.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Amazing place, had the best holiday

Excellent holiday get away can't wait to go again. The food was the best and the service was exceptional. I would recommend this resort to anyone looking for a very relaxing holiday, the people that ran it were very helpful with all our daily needs as we do not speech spanish.

Las Palmas by the Sea: Great vacation in Puerto Vallarta

We enjoyed our 2 week stay at Las Palmas. It's ideally located close to the airport, marina and city. The lobby is the first thing you see... small, worn and uninviting. But as you get into the hotel things improve. The grounds are quite nice. There are two pools, one for adults and the other for activities. The beach is average. There is one main buffet restaurant with a good variety of food. My request would be for more seafood... come on guys.... you're right on the ocean... I can get pork an [... read more]d chicken in Toronto. The 'special' restaurant was fine. Both were open air with thatched covering by the beach. The bars were very good... friendly service... but no mojitas. The entertainment was so-so. Service generally was friendly and efficient. Everything was clean. The rooms had a nice pool/ocean view, but were small. The beds are very firm, which is common, but one was lumpy. The only major problem is the noise levels at night... primarily from the bar patrons. Sleeping could be interrupted. I met a number of people who stay at Las Palmas every year. Puerto Vallarta is beautiful... surrounded by mountains, a stunning bay, terrific waterfront, and perfect weather. There are wonderful towns and parks nearby. We would go back, and we enjoyed our vacation.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Wow Awesome Resort!

Grounds were immaculate. Service outstanding! Beach a bit of seaweed but cleaned up daily...... Amazing ....Lots to do! Excellent Value.... Very friendly servers, front desk reception , bar tenders, housekeepers...... Just Loved It!

Las Brisas Huatulco: Great Hotel

Really liked this resort, the rooms were spacious & the grounds were absolutely beautiful. A lot of walking but that's a good thing. We do plan to go back to this resort. It's great for family vacations.

Riu Santa Fe: Fantastic place to stay!

This resort was extremely clean. The rooms were great. Room service made fantastic towel creatures. Dining room staff were quick and professional. Drinks and food were outstanding. The buffet was so good I don't know why anyone would be disappointed if they didn't get into one of the a la cartes. The ocean pools had a great view of lands end. The interior pool was a little quieter, which was perfect for us. It's a 20 minute walk into San Lucas on the beach. We loved it! We would recommend this p [... read more]lace to anyone and come back without hesitation.

Park Royal Acapulco: A Very Limited Resort

While the weather is absolutely fabulous in Acapulco, The Park Royal proved to be somewhat disappointing. A very clean resort but very tight for space. Food was lacking, not even to the standard we got in Cuba ( No Bacon for breakfast and the selection at the buffet was the same for every meal, every day ). The private beach is exactly that. Don't expect to for a walk. There were no shows in the evening and very few activities during the day. We were hoping to use the fitness center but they wan [... read more]ted 50 pesos every time we entered. Our room for the 3 of us was extremely small and had no fridge, coffee maker, or bar. In town the exchange rate for $1 CDN to pesos was 1:13 but the resort only offers 1:10. Three different sites each gave this resort a different star rating ( 3.5, 4 & 4.5 ) but in all honesty I would only rate this resort at a 2.5 ( 3 at best ). We will definitely go back to Acapulco but not to this resort.

Royalton Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa: Fantastic Resort

Everyone who posts a negative to this resort doesn't travel very much. It could be that they are very fussy. It could be they have nothing better to do then complain. People need to relax and enjoy their holidays. Ive been to many places good and bad. We were in Cuba last November and couldn't wait to get home. This place allows you the want to stay and come back. The people are amazing. Starting with our friend Victor who serves around the pool or on the beach. Look for him he will take amazing [... read more] care of you. We couldn't get a drink finished and another one was in our hands. Head into the restaurants. yes sometimes there is a little wait. At home when you go to a good restaurant your waiting. Its night time. Who's in a hurry to eat anyways?? Unless your a complainer and need something to complain about. Stop by the Hunter restaurant and ask for Christian. Very good server. Always smiling. Many restaurants ti choose from and in our 9 days we tried them all. All exceptional. Drinks were all premium which is a good thing for those who crave their brand of cocktail while travelling. After your day of cocktails and eating the room are way above the Mexican standard for this area. Well done Royalton. Ive now installed a rain shower in our house because my wife loved the way it was. Always loved the mornings. We were in a swimsuit room. Kids got up and went for a swim in the swim out pool. Water was a little warmer then the pools. Beach was fantastic. Yes there was some seaweed that washes up on shore when its windy but please its nature. Not Royaltons fault. The beach is so big who cares. They clean it all the time. Didn't stop myself and the kids from throwing the football around in the water. After our throwing of the football Victor was always there with a drink for us. Alcohol or non alcohol he knew what we wanted. Cheers to Victor. The only thing that Royalton needs to do is to add some bathrooms by the pools so there is a place to go after drinking those cocktails. If your wavering on this place please don't. One of the best in the Myan if not the best. Go know while it cheap and take advantage of it. Bravo Colin and Stephen Hunter love what you have done. Please try and get some Canadian feed into the spots lounge. Love to watch a Raptors or Leafs game from the bar. Last thing is the drive from the airport. We stayed at Dream Tulum last year. 2 hour drive. Royalton was 22 minutes from airport to their front door. Forget about the 11 minute drive in from the highway. Sit back and have a corona enjoy your trip.

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Hidden Gem

The food, room quality and staff friendliness at this resort is beyond any other resorts that we have stayed at. The golf course is on site and excellent. This was our second time at the Sian Ka'an and we will be back again.

Riu Santa Fe: One of the better ones

Have never been to a Riu resort before,but would consider trying other ones elsewhere.However at Los cabos the employees are all very nice,,very good food and plenty of drink.Rooms are well kept,and every area is exceptionally clean.We rarely visit same resort twice,but would certainly return to this one..

TRS Yucatan: Really 4 1/2 but almost 5

This is a great hotel with a wonderful staff. The friendliness of the staff was second to none. I really couldn't say anyone staff member stood out, I thought they were all equally wonderful. The a la cartes we attended we very good. The buffets were buffets and I have not been to any resort yet were I find them wonderful....all about the same. The timeshare people (or as they say " travel club") were not in our face pushing their product, so that was good. The rooms were well laid out, comforta [... read more]ble and clean. The reason I give this a 4 1/2 and not a 5 is that the Royal Section Beach was a long way form the Royal Section. Actually at the very opposite end of the beach, and then it's only a roped off section off the beach front and set back more into the trees. Other Royal Sections we have stayed (for example a couple times in Cuba) the Royal section beach was a private beach area right off the Royal Section. Would we go back again? Sure, it was fun and overall a really good time.

Holiday Inn Cancun Arenas: Very nice resort

The staff at this resort is amazing The meals are exceptional. Was very satisfied no one could go hungry here. The Italian a la carte was excellent. Rooms clean. I found one pool cold, this was the only one we hung at. The waiters were very attentive, Service was better then i had ever had. Just NO disco, and i love to dance.
