Riu Yucatan: 7 glorious days!

The beach and the weather were excellent so our stay was amazing! Food is good, coffee and cocktails top notch, entertainment poor quality except for the nights the tourists are on stage, our suite room was very large with comfortable beds although the linens could be better. Everyone is very friendly except for a very disappointing welcome at the front desk. Everything is well kept and close together so it's easy to get around. Walking distance to Playa del carmen (30 minutes nice walk) whic [... read more]h is bonus!

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Great Resort

Pros Great service overall Great selection of food and drinks Grounds well kept up Plenty of wildlife on site Cons More ashtrays required by adult salt water pool as butts on the ground Our phone did not ring even after mentioning to staff Sea weed arrived last day on site and covered beach and channel

Barcelo Maya Grand Resort: Todd & Alanna Visit Maya Beach Resort

Property is very large which is good for walks. Beach area is large and in a bay. Top notch lane swimming and excellent gym area. Ala Carts are good especially the Tokyo one. Service from staff excellent. The transfers to and from airport was very easy. The resort is about an hour drive from airport

Breathless Riviera Cancun: Well laid-out resort

The hotel was very well laid out. We stayed at the exhale and the service was fantastic. The grounds were kept clean and tidy. The food was fantastic and the main buffet was exceptionally good. Housekeeping a mini bar staff kept everything up-to-date everyday. The rooms we're modern up-to-date and spacious. I'd highly recommend this resort. Gary

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Incredible everything

The resort far surpassed our expectations. The buffets have a very wide variety of foods. The 5 a la Carte restaurants were a nice change from eating at the buffets. The entire resort staff did everything possible to ensure our every need was met, and were very friendly. The resort, pools and grounds were kept very clean.

Breathless Riviera Cancun: Beautiful resort

Rooms and food was excellent! The pools were also wonderful but the beach had a lot of seaweed. The staff was very friendly and courteous. All of the restaurants had a good selection of food and the service was great. Highly recommend the Teppanyaki at the Silks restaurant.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Was OK...

Just a mediocre hotel. Not kept up very well. Moldy pools with garbage and slime floating around. Rooms were ok but again moldy throughout. Food was not too bad but same every day. (was just moved around to look like it's different food options). Beach is not usable due to large rocks and a ton of seaweed... We won't be returning unfortunately.

Ocean Riviera Paradise: Beautiful, huge resort — just a few wrinkles to iron out

First of all, I'd like to thank Debbie Maguire of tripcentral.ca for her assistance coordinating this trip. She was instrumental in helping us narrow down our options and make some smart choices. She was also patient with all our questions, quick to respond whenever we emailed or called, and really insightful about our destination choices. As for our experience at Ocean Riviera Paradise: There is a lot to love about this resort. The pools — and there are many of them — are beautiful. The [... read more] grounds are immaculate. The rooms are stylish and pretty well decked out. The food was generally quite good. There’s a nice mix of quiet little nooks and active party zones scattered across the property. The evening shows were actually quite well done. The beds were comfy, the room service was quick and the staff were all quite friendly. Our nine-year-old was a bit too old for the mini club activities and a bit too young to hang out in the teen club (without us), but plenty of kids seemed to enjoy these spaces and the staff looking after them seemed attentive and fun. The children’s water slide park was another small letdown - the water flow down the slides is so light that only very small children could actually “slide” down them. The very size of the place makes most of those positives possible, but it also means (at least it meant in our experience) that when you encounter a hiccup, it’s easy for your concern to fall through the cracks. For example, it took three days and several phone calls to get the robe and slippers as promised in the room’s amenities. A little thing, sure. But also an easy thing to fix. There was also a big open, empty space on our rooftop deck where the website suggested a sectional lounger should have been (Eden Junior Suite with Rooftop Deck). We could see that our neighbors had one, for what it’s worth. We planned on spending a lot of our time up on that deck, and had chosen the upgrade based on how it looked in the website photos. Despite multiple requests, the furniture never showed up - no one even came to check. The deck also had two lounge chairs - both of which had broken legs. (We’ll never know for sure but we wonder if the furniture situation might have been resolved if we had signed up for a pricey membership in the hotel's parent company — the omnipresent high-pressure sales tactics were off putting.) In the end, furniture isn’t everything, of course. We still had a wonderful vacation and I would happily recommend this resort to anyone, with the caveat that they will need to be prepared to speak up quickly, loudly and persistently if anything is amiss.

Iberostar Waves Paraiso del Mar: Iberostar paraisso Del mar

This resort was exactly what I was looking for . Jorge Garcia gave me lots of good information and we hope to come back again next year ! I was very happy with the gym and golf course . My wife enjoyed the pool as well as the beach . We spent several hours laying in the sun enjoying the property .

El Dorado Maroma: Outstanding food

Great resort! The service, the spa, the beach, the rooms, all top notch. The clientele was a little older then most resorts. The hotel is situated between to government reserve lands, so the beach isn’t busy but there is a public dock with water sports close by, so you do get a few kids wandering onto the hotels beach.

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Amazing staff

Thanks to Mishel Romero and his staff for a wonderful stay. They were more than happy to see to all of our needs. There is a shuttle that brings you to all the other restaurants and the beach every 15 minutes.

Iberostar Waves Paraiso Beach: Amazing Resort

The entertainment team was fabulous and all the staff were kind and genuine people. Amazing stay and service. The location was beautiful, even though it was windy. My family and i had a great stay. Would like to go again!:)

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: Great resort

Blue Bay is a big reset with about 1,000 rooms. Despite its size the rooms are well kept, the grounds were impeccable and service was excellent. We were able to book dinners at the specialty restaurants every night, no restrictions. Would probably go back in the next couple of years.

Iberostar Waves Paraiso Beach: Wonderful Multi-Generation Resort

Located between Puerto Morales and Playa del Carmen, Paraiso Beach is an enjoyable resort with a family orientated emphasis. It has all of the amenities that are contained within beautiful grounds and is staffed by attentive and hard-working folks. There are a variety of restaurants, bars and a plethora of daily activities featured in addition to, evening shows that range from high end amateur musical theatre to off the strip professional performers. We travelled with three teenagers (with [... read more]out cell phones) for 12 days who were on the go from 8 – 11 p.m.; lovin’ every minute of it. (The kids club received rave reviews from both parents and kids.) If you have mobility issues, you should alert the front desk, as it is a large complex. Additionally, it is difficult to acquire a family meal times (5-7 p.m.) from the a la carte restaurants. However, there are many alternative options of extensive buffets, tacos, burgers and the little-known Star Rock Café which serves excellent food without a reservation. For our family of five this was a good value for money, all inclusive resort and it is fittingly well- recommended.

Hotel Xcaret Mexico: Outstanding resort

Hotel Xcaret is an amazing resort, the staff, the grounds, the food, drinks and the parks are all outstanding. Everyone goes above and beyond to make sure you are enjoying your stay. I can’t think of visiting anywhere else. We upgraded to feugo adult only and it was absolutely amazing !!

Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya: Valentin

It certainly wasn’t what we experienced two years ago. The service wasn’t as good and you can tell there have been cutbacks at the restaurants. It disappoints me that the wind blows constantly and that the beach and watersports are not really available and the red flags seem to be constantly up.

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Great resort

Best all inclusive place I have been, and I have been to many over the years. Food was excellent, place was super clean, grounds are kept very neat and the staff as very friendly and helpful, especially since I was traveling with a walker.

Selection Riviera Cancun: One of our Favourites!

This is a smaller, walk-able resort. Easy to get around the beautiful grounds and to the wonderful restaurants. All the staff are friendly, helpful and seem proud of their jobs, which we find very refreshing. It is a family resort and it was nice to hear the children playing and having a good time. When you walk into the front entrance, the aroma coming from the spa is immediately relaxing. The wind was blowing in lots of kelp to the beach but the resort works tirelessly to keep it managea [... read more]ble. We spent all our time in the pools anyway and the staff keep them very clean. We would recommend that the young party people remember there are children about during the day and might perhaps chose an adult only resort if they have a day/night party focus. Again, thanks to the staff for keeping it enjoyable for everyone.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Lindo: Lindo never fails

This is our 5th stay at Lindo and it will not be our last. We have been to many other resorts in the Mayan Riviera and while most of the others were nice we have never returned to them. Lindo is part of the Iberostar Paraiso Resort Complex, there are five resorts in the complex, and Lindo is the middle of the five. We feel that Lindo gives you the most bang for our buck. The staff is amazing and they go out of their way to go that extra mile for you. The food is great, after you have done severa [... read more]l Caribbean and Mexican resorts you come to realize that the quality of food is very different from one resort to the other. The resort is a very safe place so there is no worry about walking around at night or early in the morning. Also there are not people on the beach driving you crazy trying to sell you their local wares. Unlike most resort chains Iberostar does not have people harassing you to buy time shares or join clubs, these are offered but only if you show an interest. The only thing that I can say at all negative is about the evening shows. These shows have not changed in the past five years. While the rock show is great this is mainly because of the guitarist who is the real star of the show. I would like to see all of the other shows given an update. I would love to be given the job to select new music for all the shows. If you have never been here before you will enjoy the shows but if you are a returning guest it becomes a little boring. The entertainment team has completely changed this year, and they are very energetic. Also the resort has been doing some renovations which are great, the beach bar and snack bar are both redone, and there is now a 24/7 coffee bar in the lobby area. I can't say enough good things about Lindo and I am looking forward to going back
