Riu Flamingos: Wonderful place !

Our 3rd Rui we had the pleasure of staying at.. great bang for your buck ! We stayed 2wks and had absolutely no complaints! Clean rooms, clean public bathrooms, clean restaurants.Would recommend to couples & to a family.

Iberostar Waves Paraiso Beach: Great resort and amazing staff

Great hotel with lots to do and wide selection of restaurants to choose from. Location is within 30 minutes from the cancun airport which is convenient. The beach was crowded but very nice and the pools were amazing definitely the best of the various resorts we’ve visited. The resort staff was incredible especially the entertainment team who always had lots going and and did a great job interacting with people. The shows were top notch especially the New Year’s Eve show and after party.  [... read more] The resort is large but never felt busy (except the beach) even though it apparently full. Only 2 areas for improvement were the rooms are a little dated and not as nice as other places we’ve been and the the Paraiso beach doesn’t give you access to other resorts for drinks and food (we didn’t know this going there but likely this was our fault for not reading up on the resort because everyone else seemed to understand and accept this). This wasn’t a major issue since there was lots to do at our resort but if your thinking to venture over to the lindo or maya resort this may be something to consider. Would definitely return to to this hotel.

Las Palmas by the Sea: Was a great stay

We had a great time from start to finish the flight there and back was great. The stay and hotel no complaints. Weather was not the greatest but no control over that . The staff were friendly courtius and professional. Not bad food the ala cart was great I would recommend this hotel and certainly Air Transat to people

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Lovey, clean resort!

This hotel is beautifully kept, colourful. Service is great. The pools, bars and restaurants near block 5 seem to be the least busy. We travelled over the busy New Years week and never had to wait for a table, a chair, or a drink. We dined at three specialty restaurants and the food was ok. Beds are hard. Hard to get a hot shower.... Hallways and noise from other rooms is kind of loud. The area of Bucerias it is in is fantastic. Able to all around and be right in the community safely.  [... read more]Hopped on the bus to Sayulita. Would probably stay here again because of the location, service, cleanliness and the lack of being overly busy even though the hotel was full!

TRS Coral: Modern, clean and fabulous!

TRS Coral was a truly amazing holiday for my partner and I. Everything was so modern and fresh- every space sparkling clean. I’ve never been to a resort that has literally ticked every box for my partner and I. Well worth the price!

Barcelo Maya Riviera: Exceptional Resort !

We loved the resort ! It was always clean! Everyone at the resort were very friendly and helpful! The food was amazing! Buffet had so much selection each day , you can’t get bored of the food. The restaurants were flavourful as well and the chefs were accommodating which was lovely . The beach was beautiful ! Some parts did need water shoes but overall it was perfect . The beach was clean and you never had to wait for a chair . Pools were amazing as well and again never had to wait for a chair [... read more] . I give this resort a 10/10 we both have nothing negative to say about any of it. The theatre always had something on and on certain days they also provided buffet and it was really good and a lot of variety ! We have already discussed going back ASAP because we were beyond happy with everything this resort had to offer ! It being adult only was a plus !!

Barcelo Maya Palace: Large kid friendly resort

The good: Food is average for the price. Great selection but typical resort quality, not much taste. Plenty of beef, chicken, fish, shrimp etc.. Lot's of space, chairs, activities for kids. Beach is wide, sandy, and shallow and no seaweed problems during my stay. The bad: Service is slightly below average for Mexico. Most staff really just can't be bothered. Room was often not made up, missing towels, etc.. No "towel art". Calling for service was always "we'll send someone" who never sh [... read more]owed up. Reception often does not answer the phone. They have obviously been told that they should deal with problems by agreeing with anything the guest says and then promptly ignoring it. Rooms are typical 3* beach resort. Clean but not impressive. Because it is a good resort for kids there are a lot of them and the rooms have terrible sound proofing. There is a lot of screaming and running. Entertainment at the Palace is poor, high school production quality, but there is better available at one of the other resorts. You have to pay (a lot) for wifi unless you are "Premium Level". Decent quality alcohol but wine is usual cheap resort stuff.

Paradisus Playa del Carmen: Excellent resort

WE travelled in many different all inclusive, 5 stars.Our expérience at Paradisus Esmeralda Satisfied all of our expectations.We were very satisfied with all aspect of the resort.Amazing service, very professional and pleasant staff. Food and service at all restaurants and buffet excellent Nothing negative to say. Rooms very clean .

Grand Sunset Princess: Amazing Christmas Holiday

The resort put on a fantastic New Year’s Eve party for all ages including food and entertainment. The resort was back to normal by morning. Impressive! The entire week was great from food to beach.

Grand Sunset Princess: Perfect Beach

The resort was kept immaculately clean. The food was great especially in the a la cartel restaurants or the paid restaurants. Staff were always courteous and friendly. Shuttle service available on resort.

Barcelo Maya Caribe: Fabulous vacation

We were a group of 11. 2 families. The grounds were stunning. Food was average and the rooms were clean and spacious but you can hear everything in the room next door. The beach was spectacular, calm and warm. Fish swimming in the ocean at our feet. We were able to feed them standing in the ocean. MANY activities for all ages. I would definitely return to this resort

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: Ok resort but beach isn’t nice

This is a very large and accommodating resort. 2 big pools. Depending on which building you are in, it’s a long walk to beach and main pool. The most disappointing aspect of this resort is it’s on a man made lagoon that has very shallow mud beach. It’s not the Playa del Carmen beach you imagine. And you can’t swim far as it’s protected by barriers. Also the food was pretty mediocre as was the main bar that’s not open air, and had low ceiling and fluorescent lighting. The resort grou [... read more]nds are nice and lush and staff very good. Also nice that is big if you like to walk. But there is no quiet shady area to nap or hang by pool - always music on from 9 am. So if you want a more relaxed environment with a nice beach, would look elsewhere. Lots of activists for kids and by the pool.

Armony Marival Resort and Spa Punta de Mita: Beautiful resort and location

This is truly 5 stars resort in terms of accommodation, food and service. Spectacular beach. It was open only few months ago. They do not use any plastic, like cups, straws etc. Spacious, clean rooms, there is few restaurants but we only used buffet as we liked the good selection, also it was opened almost all day. You must try jacuzzi! Our stay was worth each penny, we loved it! I have only one warning for potential visitors : they will try to sell you shares and they are very pushy, so run [... read more] away before they even start talking about it.

The Fives Beach Hotel and Residences Playa Del Carmen: Great family resort

Our stay was great. Great rooms (2 bedroom suites) and the main pool right on the beach was a great feature. Many pools and many restaurants. The buffet is very small and not a great choice, BUT the number of restaurant (and the quality) definitely makes up for it. Especially for the French restaurant (with breakfast option too). Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Great resort for families with a very good Kids club.

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: bad resort

the hotel is beautiful the view is unbelievable The buffet was something to be desired they ran out of food all the time and did not have very many choices or enough staff. One night I had the fish it was so hard I could not cut it with a steak knife. At breakfast they were always running out of bacon and the waffle station had no staff, so I made my own stuff. The coffee and cappuccino machine were always empty I had to pay for my coffee every day but once at the Starbucks. When we arrived w [... read more]e asked about all the shelve of booze what was included in our price the bartender told us all three shelves we could choice from just not the top but every time we ordered a drink and asked for Absolute or Smirnoff Vodka the server would bring us bottom shelve stuff that tasted horrible. The drinks were inconsistent. The restaurants and bars were very hard to find within the hotel and never enough bartenders or servers. The food was not great in any of them. The steak house wasn’t open at all. When I asked for change from one of the waiters, he helped him self to a 50-peso tip even though we were not eating at the place I asked for change from. At the pool I had to get up at 6 am to get a chair at the pool there where people out there at like 5 am with flashlights to get a spot to sit. At the pool restaurant I sat there waiting to be served for over 20 min and then got up and left. When we did finally eat there the burgers where premade in the bun, so the bun was stuck to the meat and they had little packets of catchup that you could never find enough to put on your burger and fries where under cooked.

Akumal Bay Beach and Spa Resort: Great location

The location was great. Yes took awhile to get there from the airport but well worth it. Small resort offers a Big Bang for your buck. Snorkeling amazing!! Beach prestine! Food good with lots of variety. Rooms very clean

Hilton Vallarta Riviera Resort: Misleading - not 4.5 star

We booked our first Christmas trip and paid a a lot for this hotel. I have never written a review and have been to Mexico 7 times (I’ve stayed at both 4 and 5 star). The hotel looks nice but they can’t seem to make things work... the buffet is what you would expect from most resorts but with less selection.The restaurants and bars were very hard to find within the hotel (never enough bartenders or servers) and the food was not great in any of them. The steak house wasn’t open at all but w [... read more]e didn’t find out until we asked about it (even though the hotel was at capacity). The front desk was not helpful with any questions we had and one of the waiters took 50 pesos from me when I asked him to make change. There always seemed to be line ups at the buffet and restaurants even though there were always empty tables. If I didn’t ask for Absolute or Smirnoff vodka I would get some horrid tequila tasting rot gut... and even when I did ask for better vodka I would receive the bad tequila/vodka (and we were tipping Constantly). The pool doesn’t really get any sun until about 1:00 pm and there is always a struggle to find a chair unless you are up at 6:00 am to snag one. To sum it all Up we chose this resort as it was adult only and we expected decent food and drinks and they simply couldn’t deliver.

Riu Palace Costa Mujeres: Excellent Brand new Hotel

Great hotel, this is brand new one year hotel. Not very far from city but very calm and quiet place. amazing food and clean beach and variety of pools. Love the place, would love to go back there again. Very friendly staff and fast service.

Canto Del Sol: Great time!

Bright and family friendly resort with a good food and entertainment. Great location: not too far from the city. Nice and welcoming staff. The condition of the rooms is good but could have some minor renovations and upgrades.
