Grand Palladium Kantenah: Amazing Resort

This is one of my favourite places. It’s a beautiful place. Has amazing food and staff. Yet the best thing of all is pop. That means people of palladium. It’s the best nightly entertainment I have ever seen. This place is a must.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Beautiful Resort

Recently spent the week of April 20 - 27th, 2019 at Occidental at Xcaret. What a gorgeous resort! Not only was our room great but the entire resort is breath taking. It felt like we were in the jungle as the hotel is thoughtfully built amongst the natural vegetation. The grounds have monkeys, many species of birds and animals that are indigenous to the area. The resort staff were friendly and helpful and everywhere was clean. This resort was very family friendly and the children in the "kids [... read more] club" seemed to be having a blast, just my observation. The were a good varied of restaraunts and there was no lining up to reserve dinners, you just walked in to any one whenever you wanted to. No limits. Great pool as well as a nice beach with a private adult only area which we enjoyed the most. Only aspect that was disappointing was the night shows and adult entertainment... The evening shows were no where near the quality we experienced in Cuba. The resort seemed to shut down by 10:00pm. All in all I would go back to the Occidental and as well Xcaret Eco Park in itself was a wonderful experience! Next time though definately 10 days NO LESS

Bahia Principe Explore Akumal: Trip of a lifetime

For the first time in 30 years my husband and I took this trip and had the most amazing experience of our lives. Everything about this resort was top notch, from the service, food, entertainment, accommodations, pool and the beach. The staff of this resort were so friendly and helpful. I give this resort a 10 out of 10 and would definitely recommend to friends and family. Thank you for everything Jodie and Gord From New Brunswick, Canada

Bahia Principe Explore Akumal: Wonderful vacation!

The resort and vacation were overall amazing! We would definitely return! Great value for the dollar. This was my first time to Mexico and I was a bit anxious about getting sick from the food and water and about feeling safe. We stayed on the resort for the entire vacation (as we were only into R & R) and we always felt safe. I took advice from a friend and took 'travellers probiotics' and a shot of tequila everyday. Those two things, and the provided bottled water and amazing food, and I [... read more] wasn't sick once! Food: Absolutely no complaints and definitely 5 star. The breakfast, lunch and dinner buffets were beyond plentiful, delicious and had a wide variety of choice. The servers waited on you 'hand and foot' for beverages and clearing. This resort allowed vacationers to go to as many 'a la cart' restaurants as they wanted for dinners. We went to 5 in all and the food was impeccably prepared, well presented and served in a friendly and high class way. We even were able to eat outside 2x with a table set up with all of the finest on the sand overlooking the water! We were able to choose from 2 'a la cart' menus. Wonderful experience! Beach: Problem with algae. Shore was a bit rocky. Would bring rubber beach shoes if I went again. Still, the beach was good. Water was wonderful and refreshing. Neat schools of fish to observe in the ocean if you have goggles. Pools: Amazing! 5 star! Plenty of lawn chairs in the sun and shade. Lots of pools. Never really felt crowded at all. There was an amazing 'infinity' pool designated for adults. It looked amazing but we never went in it because we had a young teenager. Drink service at the pool was excellent. Everyday towards dinner, a server came around with fresh fruit on a skewer. The pool we stayed at each day was quieter, and more suited for reading and relaxing. We were only disturbed one day by a group of 'drunks' including one who threw up in the pool towards the end of the day. A recommendation to the resort to make sure bartenders/security don't allow 'drunkenness' and to always keep one pool area quiet. Grounds: 5 star!! Immaculately maintained. It was like a park. Common areas: Super clean, spacious, lots of neat architectural and artistic features to look at. Rooms: Super clean, mini-bar and waters, soaps, towels always restocked. The comfortable beds were made up neat & tight like in the army (not easy to do). Air conditioner was controllable so room temperature was nice. Lots of TV stations in different languages. A good working safe in the closet to keep valuables. Large rooms. One recommendation to the hotel would be to try and limit the amount of times the staff went into the rooms. At the beginning of the vacation, I thought our room was being snooped in. I was worried about theft but nothing was taken. I let front desk know but no-one got back to me to explain. I soon figured there were different staff going into the room at different times to do different jobs. (Never saw that before.) Transfers/flights: Everything was well coordinated and pretty well stress free. Service: 5 star!! The vast majority of the staff were super friendly, helpful, efficient and always greeted us with an 'hola'. The food & drink servers, hostesses, table clearers were especially so kind and pampering. Special thanks to Melanie for making all of the arrangements and to everyone at the resort for a great vacation!

Grand Sirenis Riviera Maya: Amazing resort

Amazing resort with nature and wildlife. Lots of activities, good food and friendly staff. May visit there again in the future. Shows catered for old and young. Free drinks served to you wherever you were---beach, pools, theatre or lobby.

Hotel Marina El Cid Spa and Beach Resort: Beautiful stay in Riviera Maya!

Marina El Cid Spa & Beach Resort exceeded all our expectations and set the bar high for our first time in Mexico. The resort's facilities and amenities were indeed world-class. Service was top notch and the staff were phenomenal. We are already planning to come back and stay longer! If there is something that was a negative was the seaweed situation on the beach. It was just too much. But we have very much enjoyed our stay. Muchas gracias por todo!

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Lindo: Amazing resort

Great vacation April 22-29/19 Resort was beautiful, clean and wonderful staff. Rooms were great spacious and comfy beds. Food was amazing! Beach fantastic. Pools were fantastic! Highly recommend this resort to others.

Barcelo Maya Caribe: Great resort

Been to this resort a number of times. Grounds and beach are beautiful. Plenty of things to do around and never get bored. Kids friendly, lots of kids slides. Good Snorkelling right of the beach. Always recommend this place to my friends.

Ocean Riviera Paradise: Great but not amazing

Room was very clean and nice. We stayed in the rooftop room in El Beso. I wouldn't recommend the swim up rooms, didn't see anyone really use them and they are literally beside the pool. Beach is narrow and small and a little rocky. Seaweed was present but that's basically everywhere and nothing resort can do about it. Food was good. Sakura restaurant and the italian place were the best ones in our opinion. Resort is big but if you are in any decent shape you won't have a problem walkin [... read more]g it and they have buses if you really can't.

Barcelo Maya Caribe: Fabulous vacation!

The hotel was fantastic! Such a large area between 5 hotels, with variety in food, pools, but well layed out that it was easy to orient. The staff were all so welcoming, always with a smile on their face. Everything was very well maintained. The food was really good!! buffets, al le carte, and you could find something at any time of day. I never had to think about anything or worry about anything, it was absolutely fantastic!!

Grand Sirenis Riviera Maya: Amazing Resort

Resort had a lot to offer activities, swim with dolphins, spa etc. very clean, food and service was awesome and friendly staff. Couldn’t have asked for anything better. We will definitely be back. Had a great time and highly recommend

Paradisus Playa del Carmen: Nice pools but horrible beach

The hotel is beautiful but the beach is so horrible we would never go to this area again. Service was great but i got food poisioning. Thr quality of the wine needs to be better. More options for different wines. Waterpark is amazing.

Akumal Bay Beach and Spa Resort: We were speechless!

We were a little skeptical from the glowing reviews but WOW were we impressed! Buffet and restaurants were amazing! Bars everywhere with Premium drinks that are not watered down and cheerily filling our bubba thermoses. Am a chocoholic and had the best chocolate desert at Limas! Dark chocolate and white chocolate with green macha powder artistically presented on the dish! Yikes was so good! Buffet was a foodies dream! Room was spacious and clean. Were without hot water for one day...not a big de [... read more]al. Sargassum is a problem throught most of the carribean however our Akumal resort had full time crews cleaning it up so beach was not as bad as it could have been. We have been to most of the islands in the Caribbean but at Akumal from april 22 to april 29th we honestly had the best week at a resort ever. Marco the buffet and restaurant manager was very accomodating and made us feel so welcome. Staff was always cheery and never made us feel unwelcomed. We are planning on going back this November with 2 other couples!

Bahia Principe Explore Coba: Nice Resort

The resort was very large, well maintained with lots of staff. Grounds where gorgeous and pools where great. At times felt the buffet for dinner felt it was the same. The ocean front was not good because of all the weeds but not the fault of the resort. They had lots of people manually taking away the weeds but could never keep up to it.

Iberostar Waves Paraiso Beach: Get your steps in!

This property was massive. Lots of walking. They had shuttle carts for guests but we had a hard time getting one when needed. Beach was large with lots of seating. Lots of seaweed so we stayed by the pool. Buffet food could have been better options for vegetarians or more selection in general.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Lindo: Very satisfied

Our family had a wonderful week at the Lindo resort, everything met or exceeded expectations. Rooms, Service, pools, beaches, food, bars, entertainment...all great. Sailing the Hobie Cats was an exceptionally fun experience, however there was an abundance of seaweed at the beach, despite the extensive efforts by staff to control it

Catalonia Riviera Maya: Awesome resort !!!

Catalonia had it all ! We were there for 10 days and never got bored from snorkelling off the beach, kayaking the lagoon, golfing the 9 holes in Puerto Aventuras, biking around the marina, going to the beach next door, going to the nightly shows and did I mention the great food , A memorable vacation thanks to tripcentral

Ocean Riviera Paradise: Great Resort

This resort is clean and the people are extremely friendly. There is always something to do if you want it just relax. The beach has some rocks close to shore and seaweed would blow in but still so much fun to play in the waves. The food is very good and a lot of variety at all the restaurants and I especially enjoyed the ice cream shop. The only problem was they screwed up my return information causing me to miss the bus and almost the plane, that was extremely stressful and I had checked two  [... read more]times about return information.

Excellence Riviera Cancun: Best resort ever

One of a kind resorts. We loved everything about it. The staff was fabulous and catered to all of our needs. The food was delicious in all of its restaurants. We are definitely planning to come back next year and would recommend this resort to anyone. Time of our lives.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Older resort with great service and amazing food,

We’ve stayed at 2 of the other properties onsite and this seems to be the older of the 3 with smaller rooms. But the food and service were very good. Francesco in the dining room at breakfast every day was excellent. I was travelling with a broken leg, which wasn’t easy as the pathways are very rough, cobblestone and my knee scooter wasn’t designed for 4wheel drive. I advised the resort in advance that I had a broken leg and wheelchair and was given a ground level room close to the lob [... read more]by, however it wasn’t “accessible”. The bathroom was so small that the door hit the toilet when opened, the tub was difficult to get into especially with a half glass door. I’m lucky my injury is temporary. I don’t think someone in a wheelchair could have managed. The knee scooter is half the size and I barely fit into the bathroom. Everything else is similar to other resorts: people saving chairs with the towels even though signs says not to, weak drinks, and lots of seaweed on the beach. Also, the timeshare people lied to our faces, saying they weren’t selling timeshares. Be careful. But the food in the buffet and a la carte restaurants is excellent, the staff are very friendly and provide great service. We would go back but not with a broken leg.
