Bahia Principe Explore Akumal: Awesome resort

5 star hotel all the way. Staff is the best. So many and so nice. Could not have asked for a better holiday. I would go again in a heartbeat. Loved it from booking with tripcentral.ca and Cindy to our host Sylvan at air Transat at the resort. Everything was good.

Ocean Riviera Paradise: Superb Resort!

The Ocean Riveria Paradise resort was great! super clean, lots of fun stuff to do and so many different restaurants we were never bored. The beach is beautiful and bars were a plenty. I would recommend this resort to anyone who likes sun, fun and palm trees!

Barcelo Maya Palace: Super séjour au Barcelo Palace

Nous y étions du 11 au 18 janvier dernier, moi, mon conjoint et notre garçon de 3 ans. Notre séjour fut plus qu'agréable: tout est propre, excellente nourriture au Buffet, l'aménagement paysager impeccable, beaucoup d'espace sur la plage, même si il faut faire attention aux roches à l'entrée de l'eau. Je recommanderais sans hésiter cet établissement. Les employés sont tous très aimables. Toutefois, le seul bémol est que nous n'avons pas eu la chambre que nous avions demandée lor [... read more]s de la réservation. Ceci est mon 10 ieme voyage dans les Caraïbes et c'est la première fois qu''un hôtel ne peut respecter notre demande ( nous voulions une chambre avec lit King et avons eu deux lits doubles) Je crois que cela est dû au fait que l’hôtel était en forte demande et très achalandé lors de notre séjour. Pour cette raison, je vais certainement considérer aller sur au autre site de Barcelo, soit le Barcelo Colonial ou Tropical,aussi beaux et merveilleux mais qui semblait plus tranquille.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Great week in Mexico

First off, I usually never would visit the same resort twice. But this place made me want to go back again next year. Rooms were clean, Food was really good, but could be served at a warmer temperature. Would be my only complaint on food. The wait staff were top notch. Resort grounds were beautiful, Beach was always kept super clean. One of the best trips we have had.

Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya: Excellent Resort

Everything about this resort was excellent from the moment we arrived in the breathtaking lobby. The room, grounds and restaurants were all beautiful and the food was very good. It had a pool for people who wanted a lot of activity as well as a pool for those who wanted a more peaceful experience. The beach was also very nice, although it could get a bit busy as the day went on since it is a public beach. What really stood out was the service of those who worked there. Every employee we encount [... read more]ered were so friendly and helpful and went above and beyond to make your experience a pleasant one. While this resort was a bit further from the airport (hour and half), it was absolutely worth it and we wouldn’t hesitate to book again!

Dreams Riviera Cancun: One of the best I have been at.

Loved the size not to big. Everything close. Very clean and great staff. A great variety of food at buffet with great service. Being close to the airport is one of the reasons we chose it. The fact that the children were not allowed in the hot tub was disappointing. It was a cool week and every time they went a staff member would ask them to leave. These kids were raised with a hot tub at home so with adult supervision the hotel should allow children access to it.

Ventus at Marina El Cid Spa and Beach Resort: A notch above the rest!

This place can only be experienced and no words can give it any justification. Simply irresistible. Our second time there, and we will be back many more over the next 30 years! The hotel is spotless, and people are continuously cleaning, meticulously. Fresh paint is being applied over top of what already seemed to be freshly painted. The restaurants offer up some of the best food in the Caribbean, of note, the red tuna sashimi in the Mediterranean restaurant, the clam chowder in the Itali [... read more]an restaurant, and the beef medallions in the French restaurant. The infinity pool is heated and overlooks the Caribbean Sea. The staff work so hard to ensure your stay is second to none. Can't say enough really!!!!

Catalonia Riviera Maya: Pretty grounds

The facade of the resort was ok, however it caters to the "privileged guests" Everywhere you went from the ala carte diners to the beach, the privileged were treated better. On the beach and in the pool area there were signs clearly posted that patrons were not to reserve chairs. That's a joke. Every chair is held by 10am, and many are left without one. Wonder why there are more guests than chairs? Our room was only cleaned 2x. Were there for 5 nights. We left out our tablet to charge..appare [... read more]ntly that was the reason. The toilet seat was only held on by 1 bolt. Never fixed. Overspray from painting evident and black hand prints were just left...no effort to clean it. I guess because we are not "privileged "

Hotel Xcaret Mexico: Fabulous Resort

This resort is absolutely stunning. ALL the staff at Hotel Xcaret are absolutely amazing going above and beyond to ensure you have an enjoyable and memorable stay. My husband is able to walk only short distances so we took a wheelchair to help him get about the resort. There were areas we didn't think we could access but when we asked the concierge employees they were very helpful. My husband wanted to go up to see the chapel but there were alot of hills and it was a distance from the main b [... read more]uilding. We asked the concierge manager about an alternate way there and although there wasn't one, he had one of the bellboys accompany us pushing the wheelchair up the hills and up some of the walkway to the chapel. (elevator took us most of the way up). We had booked Las Cuevos for my birthday dinner before arriving so were unaware that it was located on the beach again with no way to access by wheelchair. One of the security guards pushed him in the chair to a location where there was a flight of stairs he could descend. Throughout our stay staff was always assisting with meeting his need with the wheelchair. One of the waiters told us there was a way down to the lagoon beach area via one of the casas and then a tunnel. He asked one of the concierge near the infinity pool to show us how to get there. This was incredibly important to my husband as it was partly because of the rivers that we booked this resort. Overall it is a great resort and as stated earlier the staff are fantastic.

Sandos Caracol Nature Resort and Water Park: Great Family Resort

The hotel is a bit out dated but all in all it was great for families. The resort was clean and lots of things for the kids too do. Great options at the Buffets but the food could be a lot warmer was cold by the time you got back to the table. The transportation to and from the resort was luxurious Staff was not the friendliness as I have seen before except the pool area the staff there was amazing. Lots of fun activities for the kids. The main pool could be bigger

Catalonia Riviera Maya: Great location in Puerto Aventuras

The resort is located in an area that feels safe. The swimming pools, swim up bar and grounds are very nicely maintained. But the actual hotel could use some upgrades and the buffet restaurants are sub standard to every 'all inclusive' we have enjoyed for the past 15 years. The buffet food was the same almost every day and although there were stations of food they were limited. And the restaurants to book were not available until too late each day when travelling with kids. Making a reser [... read more]vation for the Riviera Maya did not provide rooms in that hotel but next door at the sister hotel and were low end rooms and bathrooms and beds & bedding. We left the hotel several times to eat outside of the hotel.

Ocean Coral and Turquesa: clean hotel, food good not exceptional

Staff - very friendly One day there was construction in morning and it disturbed our sleep. This went on for a few hours Bell servers very accommodating - Carlos provided exceptional service did not go on any excursions but did visit Playa delCarmen for a few hours. the food was better outside of the hotel

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: An excellent resort

The food was outstanding and service was always great. The format of the resort was nicely laid out. Plenty of room by the pools and a nice beach area close to the bars, bathrooms and restaurant. There was great entertainment every night.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Awesome Vacation

The Occidental at Xcaret Destination is an excellent vacation getaway - we spent 7 glorious days here and enjoyed our time immensely - restaurants were great, grounds were great including the wildlife on this property. Most of all, the staff were so amazing - they could not do enough for us.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Amazing employees

My sister and I were in building 22 ( top floor. Back of building). We had monkeys on our balcony every morning. Wonderful experience. At one point our keys didn’t work any longer so I went next door to Royal level. Thankfully they fix the problem with the keys. If you don’t feel like taking the trolley ask for shortcut to lobby. I wouldn’t recommend this resort for people that have problems walking a lot. Everything else was great. Bon voyage

Ocean Riviera Paradise: Fabulous destination

We had a family wedding as part of our vacation. every detail of our special day was looked after perfectly and professionally.this is a world class destination. The food was delicious and the meal for the wedding was exceptional. Thanks to all staff and any one involved.

Royalton Hideaway Riviera Cancun: Royalton Hideaway

Rooms and resort amenities are beautiful i.e., modern upscale decor. Food quality and service at a la carte restaurants was very hit and miss. Portions were small overall. Room service menu choices were very limited, delivery was slow and good quality was just mediocre if that. Guest services staff have poor attitudes - unfriendly and less than helpful. I will not return or recommend the Royalton to my friends or family.

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Never disappointed

Many trips to this resort and hopefully many more to come. Great as usual and value for your $ is second to none. Great staff, good food, drinks and amenities. Having been many times and knowing many of the staff is a bonus. Always amazed how you can go up to one of them a year later and they remember some personal detail from the year or 2 before.

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Better than expected

This resort is much better than i expected. The staff were amazing, friendly and very eager to help. The advertisement pictures dont do it justice. Also much bigger than expected. The food was absolutely delicious. I cant think of anything negative to say about our experience. Such a beautiful and magnificent place to stay. Just dont forget your water shoes, not a place to run some into the water full steam.

Platinum Yucatan Princess: Disappointing

There are no towel bars in the shower area. Only place for towels is on the floor. THe shower floor is EXTREMELY slippery - be sure to wear water shoes or risk falling. The patio area at the swim out pools has deteriorated to the extent you have to wear shoes or risk injury. They had the red flag out every single day - so no swimming. Service was fantastic, food was good but not great. We saw quite a few wildlife - We even managed to feed the coati!! On the whole not a bad place  [... read more]but not the 5 star we were led to believe - probably more a 3.5 to 4. I would recommend but with caveats.
