Hacienda Buenaventura Hotel and Mexican Charm: must like loud music

Clean, comfortable facility with friendly staff. Food is plentiful and good. Beach is a 2-block walk or shuttle ride but Beach Club is inadequate. All rooms overlook pool and bar area where very loud music is a constant until late at night- no way to escape it except by leaving the hotel! Great for party lovers, not so for the rest of us.

Plaza Pelicanos Club: jan./15 trip

door men just figures ,who possibly pretended not to speak english. Couldnt figure out i needed a cab, or didnt know where a sports club a few blocks away was.Not too friendly.However the local buses are close and come by frequently.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Fantastic!

Our family was truly impressed with this resort. Our children, 10 and 8 could say enough about how great it was. Our room was in a beautiful quiet setting, the food was excellent and the service - superb!!! We were treated like royalty at the al a cart restaurants where the food quality and taste was over the top. The beach was beautiful and the snorkeling was amazing, right off the beach. We would definitely go back to the Bahia Principe Tulum resort again.

Iberostar Selection Playa Mita: RELAXING YET FUN

Everything was great about this resort. Staff were very polite and friendly. The entertainment staff were excellent. Night shows were very well done. You could lie around the pool all day or keep busy following the activity schedule.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Lindo: A bit of heaven on earth

Our trip to iberostar lindo was more than we could ever had hoped for in an ideal resort vacation. The grounds were beyond expansive as well as the amenities. The staff, accommodations, and food fare were beyond what we could hope for a visit to paradise. The staffs friendliest and sincerity was felt. Our room, dining and entertainment areas, gym facilities, and beach area and grounds were, to say the least, spectacular. We haven't stopped telling any one who will listen how fantastic our experi [... read more]ence was at the Lindo resort.

Temptation Resort & Spa: Just what I was looking for!

The rooms were surprisingly nice, very cozy. The staff were friendly and everything in the resort was easy to find, great layout. The atmosphere was exactly what I was looking dor and needed. A great party spot with great ppl! So easy to meet awesome ppl whether they were couple or singles, everyone was great! Music they played made me dance all night and just had a blast. Can't wait to return one day!

The Fives Beach Hotel and Residences Playa Del Carmen: Great Destination with Much To Do

I was part of a wedding party of 57 people. An initial first night in a room I did not care for aside, I found my next room in Villa 14 to be comfortable and well appointed for the remaining stay. Beautiful surroundings, friendly staff, activities and a variety of cuisine to suit most anyone's taste makes Azul Five a good value for your $$$ in my opinion. The numerous pools make it easy to not only catch some rays but also either be part of the action at the ocean front infinity or to chill-out  [... read more]quietly by the many lagoon style pools surrounding the villas. I do recommend venturing in to check out Playa Del Carmen for sure! I enjoyed my overall experience so much that I am in fact considering returning in as soon as the next two months. This time to just relax. :)

The Fives Beach Hotel and Residences Playa Del Carmen: Good...but could do better!

Restaurants menus are limited and repetitive...rooms need repair and updating. Staff is friendly, but there is still a major language barrier for many, Flavours restaurant...flavourless and limited...time for an overhaul! Overall the spider monkeys stole the show...variety of pools to attend which offered a tranquil setting or a loud kids zone as you like!

Hard Rock Hotel Cancun: Wow what a trip!

This is one of the best resorts we've been to. The resort credits you receive gave us a massage a day for 7 days! The food, except for Brazilian, was very good. A pizza oven by the pool, wow! And alcohol was good quality (except for house wine). Spa was UNBELIEVABLE and staff was very friendly.

Moon Palace Cancun: Great place with nice perks

Newly updated, very clean, amazing service all around, many choices for eating and food good. Lobby in Nizuc is amazing. Resort credits allowed us to do many things, golf, spa, swim with dolphins, wine upgrade, other attractions - you just pay the taxes. This made it very worthwhile. Very large resort with a lot of walking and also lots of options for pools, eating, shows, etc. Nice pools - only 2 or 3 are heated. Able to visit other palace resorts was also nice. Beach not so nice - lots of seaw [... read more]eed but amazing beach at the Beach Palace. Nice to be so close to airport - not a long drive.

Barcelo Ixtapa: Fantastic vacation

This is a people friendly, comfortable hotel. Very clean and it has just been renovated. The buffet food was very good as they have a great selection of food from fish to pasta and everything in between. Every person on staff are friendly and eager to help in any way. Two big pools and a beach that goes for miles, dolphins and whales can be seen from your balcony. Yes i said Whales , I could not believe my eyes! The water is very warm and great for boogie boards. This place I would highly recomm [... read more]end with its welcoming layed back atmosphere.

Sandos Caracol Nature Resort and Water Park: Eco all the way AMAZING

The Resort was great. The jungle walks were great, never knowing what you were going to see. All the trees and many different animals.The three part show was amazing and being held in different parts off the resort was top notch. Went with my daughter and two grandchildren but would definitely return again just as a couple. Love the whole resort

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: fantastic

I was nervous about booking the trip after reading the reviews. So happy that I ignored every one of them. It was everything I could want in a resort and fabulous vacation!!! Highly recommended!!!! There was more than enough space, pools, restaurants etc. for everyone.

Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos Ramada: Decameron Los Cocos

A very good area to immerse into authentic Mexico. A slow paced non-american resort with very good food. Not for the party crowd or singles looking for the "what happens in..." crowd. There are many excursions locally and Sayulita is 45 minutes down the road.

Royalton Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa: Going to be great!

New resort, just opened. The design, amenities, atmosphere all satisfy a discerning standard for a 5-star all-inclusive resort. The food was great but not amazing - choice was exceptional. The rooms were impressive - beds comfortable, showers huge! + Gym/spa/tennis (3 artificial grass and sand courts), gelato/cappuccino and retail shops, sophisticated bars and the lobby lounge. - Hideaway pools feel too enclosed, significant settling of all the concrete paving areas throughout the resort means t [... read more]hey will be working on repairs for some time (seems like quality was sacrificed in a race to complete) - will band-aid solutions suffice or will a major reconstruction be required during the low season? This construction activity was noticeable but not a nuisance. The pools and buildings are not suffering from the same settlement issues.

Sunscape Dorado Pacifico: Very friendly clean resort.

The resort is always clean, the staff are very friendly and helpful. The only suggestion I could offer, is that the al a carte restaurants could open earlier, and their should be more options every night. Pleased to note, that the time share people did not pester us, allowing us to enjoy our vacation.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Goin back!!!!

Truley an awsome resort! Everything was excellent , definatly going back with other couples (that we recommend this resort. )next year. Staff was super nice and resort was very clean, food was exceptional, beach was nice and the rooms were fine, although the bathrm could be bigger, not a big deal! Going back love it!!

Park Royal Acapulco: Amazing resort !!!

The ground of the hotel was awsome. Beautiful view from each part of the resort. Room - very clean, good variety of food, coffee not so good, personnel nice, and helpful, beach very clean, nice with excellent view on the Bay of Acapulco but very short not for walking. Great selection of trips. I would go there again :)

Iberostar Waves Tucan: Better than expected

Why waste time and money with any other property? We have travelled a lot and been to many 4 and 5 stars. The food here was fantastic, service kind and experience amazing. It was close to playa central and we would definitely recommend it to anyone and return.

Hotel Emporio Ixtapa: Don't Buy All-Inclusive!

This a very average hotel, more of a 3 star than a 4 star. PROS: Service - The service is excellent - all the staff do a great job of looking after their guests and keeping the hotel and grounds clean. Location - This hotel is located in the heart of Ixtapa directly across the street from many shops and restaurants with a bus stop right out front. The beach is absolutely beautiful, great waves, fine sand with no rocks or seaweed. Bikes - There are bikes available (free of charge but not advertis [... read more]ed) and I highly recommend the fabulous bike path through the jungle up to Playa Linda. CONS: Rooms - The rooms are basic and bit dated but they are clean. There were very few electrical plugs available for charging phones/tablets so we had to take turns. Showers had adequate hot water but no bathtub. Senor Frogs and the hotel next door were noisy at night so we had to keep the sliding door shut. Food - The food is rather basic. We bought the breakfast only and we were very glad that we didn't buy all the meals because the selection was very limited and repetitive. There are many restaurants within a couple blocks offering seafood, Mexican food, pasta and pizza. You will get far more variety and value for your money by purchasing the breakfast only or no-meal plan. SUMMARY - To sum up, I would stay at this hotel again if it is offered at a good price. However, if there is only minimal price difference to other hotels, I would prefer to stay somewhere else.
