Paradise

This is a paradise hotel. The food was good. The staff was helpful and friendly. The beach was heaven and the pool is sexy. The locals don't bug you on the beach like some resorts. It is mandatory that you drink tequila while you ate in Cancun.

First time adults only resort experience

All the staff were very good. Food was excellent with a good selection available. Rooms were ok but need one with a king size bed. Very clean resort. The rooms can be noisy if you are on the lower floors. We went to get to sun and relax on the beach which was great. The guests that were there to party seemed to have a good time at the pool and pool bar. There were lots of activities going on to keep them busy.

Spring break 2015

We had a nice time there BUT it was not what we were sold. They sais that it was an adult over 25 only and that was not our case. There was a group of 50 spring breakers and it was not peaceful . They were LOUD and you could never get a drink because they were always at the bar talking too loud and the barman couldn't see you. They were there to drink as much as they could and had no respect for no one. I would never go there again because of that. The hotel is dated but very clean and the food  [... read more]was good. The beach is nice and you can walk for miles.

Worth every penny

This hotel is one of the smaller hotels in Cancun ,about 220 rooms , but having said that it makes for a less hustle and bustle at check in/ check out times, meal times are also a breeze with no bookings required at any of the 4 specialty restaurant's .The property is well maintained and clean .The entertainment staff go out of their way to try and make sure everyone is enjoying themselves and the staff in the restaurants do a great job by greeting and seating the guests at a table and the servi [... read more]ce during in the meal. I talked with quite a few of the guests while I was there and found that many of them are repeat guests that had returned year after year "a home away from home " as one of them told me, which pretty much sums up my own thoughts about the place. It was my first visit there and I, like others, will be returning

Like going home

Just an amazing resort. Golden is by no means a Five star but the service sure is. The Golden is for an older crowd, if you are a twenty something and enjoy posing by the pool listening to techno music you will not like it. If you enjoy a great beach, great service, above average food for an all-inclusive, and activities that will keep you moving, then this resort is for you. This was our 3rd stay at the Golden and we are already planning our fourth! I really can't say enough about the staff, th [... read more]ey are amazing!!! An all around great stay once again! The only changes I would make would be to offer free wifi and a mini fridge in all rooms not just club and golden rooms.

This was our 7th time there it is just amazing

the resort is great well staffed and a lot of the original staff from from 2006 our first time still there the cleaning staff bar tenders waiters are all awesome we highly recommend to all our friends & family

Second time

While the resort had changed somewhat in 10 years I luv this place for the relaxed fun atmosphere created by the energetic staff and of course no little kids. The food is great too. Sure there is entertainment offered in the evening which is worth the look if you're feeling like you're looking for something to do but I wouldn't say it was a highlight of our trip. The resort overbooked so our reservation at the resort for the first night was spent elsewhere and while they did upgrade us it was an [... read more] inconvenience.
