Tukan Hotel Playa Del Carmen: Stay away

Where to start... Hotel staff only provided one key for our 2 bedroom because it's "policy", not any policy I've seen before. They also tried to charge us again for breakfast we paid for in our package once we got to the hotel. There also is no gym as advertised, and pool is smaller than you'd think. Pool shower is not clean and has no water pressure. Their cleaning standards are VERY low! The floor in our (spoiler alert) first room were sandy, the room smelled sandy and wet as well. The glass i [... read more]n the shower was not clean, and all the bathroom hardware, including the toilet paper holder was riddled with limestone. More terrible water pressure with a rusted shower head. Some of the lights were busted and the TVs only had 2 channels. Very spotty wi-fi as well. Safes in the hotel are also all broken. Water in the toilet bowl was not clear, it was a light yellow still don't know what that's about. When we asked staff if all the rooms were like that, they said nothing was wrong with the rooms. They moved us a room over, and it was basically more of the same but at least all the lights worked. There was still hair in the shower from a previous use and the shower head was pointed towards the entrance of the shower so every time we used it, it made a mess. Since they also have no carpet, they just put towels on the floor. Hope you have slippers cause your feet will turn black walking around your own tiny room. The place is right off fifth ave, so it is very loud and there was also a horn going off like every hour, we never figured out what it was. Also the doors are not flush to the ground and we found salamanders in our rooms more than once. Would only recommend this place to people I hate. Best thing that happened was nobody stealing our stuff. Avoid at all costs!

Grand Sirenis Riviera Maya: Fantastic Resort

Loved everything about this resort. Travelled with another couple and we could not come up with one complaint. The best part of our stay was that there is no need to get up early to save seats at the beach or pool. Lots of lounges available even at 9:00am.

Camino Real Zaashila: The best beach in Huatulco

Over all a nice place. Buffet was good and the service was excellent. Lunch menu was repetitive. Improvements needed - access to premium brands of alcohol should be included. Towel service most definitely needs improvement - both in access- only one service person!- and sometimes lack of availability. Please buy some new towels and sunbeds!

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Maya Suites: Our favourite resort!

This resort offers everything and more! The food, entertainment, pools, waterslides, wave pool, activities, landscaping, wildlife and staff are all amazing! The drinks are delicious and the buffets have so many choices! We are going back for the 3rd time!

Riu Latino: Riu Latino

The resort is beautiful with plenty of open air spaces, well manicured grounds, three pools and a water slide in a separate pool. The staff are courteous, friendly and helpful. The hotel is very clean and the rooms spacious and modern. The food and drinks were delicious. And the beach runs for more than 10k, easily.

Ocean Riviera Paradise: Great time

My wife And I along with my son and his girlfriend just stayed here last week. Overall we have a great time, the food was good, the staff were all excellent. We would go down for breakfast and comeback and our room was already cleaned. Never had any issues with our rooms. Pretty cool to see the wild monkeys along the path to the beach. They never ran out of anything during our stay. For the negative, they really don’t have much of a beach area for lounging, and the chairs down by the pool that  [... read more]over looks the beach are taken up really early. Booking the a la carte are a big of a pain to book in you have to go down super early and stand inline to book each day or login and try and get one. I do highly suggest going to both of the Xcaret parks, can say what a great time they both are. Xplor has the zip lines and many other things to do from caves to seeing a variety of animals. Food labels for the buffet would have been better then having the chief come out and show my wife what she could eat. As she has celiac. But they did accommodate every meal for her.

Planet Hollywood Adult Scene Cancun by Royalton: We had a great time!

Amazing hotel! The grounds and beach were beautiful. Many things to do for adults only, but also for families. Was great to have access to both sides when staying on adult only side. Food options were unlimited, and adult side food options were great. Highly recommended.

Hotel Dos Playas Faranda: Nightmare

Staff were the best thing about the hotel. Our safe broke 5 times. I got sick. Puking my guts out. Luckily I had anti biotics in my bag. I had a fever so it was food poisoning. No gloves for food handling every where. It was a 2 star at best. I could go on but do not go here. Really do not go here.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Absolutely amazing Resort

We loved everything about this resort. We were fortunate enough to be put in The Colonial section (Jalisco Bldg). I can’t even think of anything negative to write. After 10 days I guess the buffets felt a bit repetitive.. but that being said you never went hungry and could always find something you liked. No one likes a hot soup on a hot day but their home made daily soups were amazing. The ala carts were fabulous.. the drink service ladies were awesome.. the pools clean and the swim up bar sta [... read more]ff awesome. Just everything about it was exceptional. It is a huge resort tho and we did venture out .. but we stayed in our section for the most part. I would highly recommend to anyone

Grand Oasis Cancun: Not what was expected.

Staff were good with guests, May spoke English and only a few did not. Cleanliness NEEDS work. Better description of the resort is required. You must upgrade an additional $400/nt cad to have bacon at the buffet. It’s really 3 resorts on one property. Food variety (there is none). Same food every day but it is cooked well. Only 1 tender at each bar and no blenders for drinks. Had to chase housekeeping to replenish room coffee and floor was not swept once. No option when booking to upgrade to w [... read more]hite or black bracelet. Blue bracelet: access to about 50% bars and restaurants. White: about 75% ($200/nt extra) black: 100% resort access for about $400/nt extra.

The Fives Oceanfront Puerto Morelos: Really great!

This spot was really great... some things to keep in mind: - Like almost everywhere else, we needed to go out at 7am to reserve beach loungers, otherwise, they would be all taken up for the dat - Since there is no buffet and everything is a la carte, you need to assume you'll be sitting in a restaurant for about 1hr-2hrs every meal, service isn't particularly fast - Breakfast and Lunch are great !!! (like on par with western restaurants) dinner lacks slightly. Keep that in mind... - Room s [... read more]ervice is $5 USD (delivery fee) but if you are on the all-inclusive package, that's all you pay, the food is included! - Only about 30 min drive from cancun airport (if you make no stops) - there are definitely kids at the resort, but isn't overly young kids friendly in the sense that there isn't much for kids to do (in my opinion) since there are only two small pools, and the rooftop one is adults only Overall, you are paying more for a boutique experience, but do keep all these points in mind...aside from those points, it was fantastic! 4.5 overall from me!

Barcelo Maya Colonial: What an Amazing Resort

This trip was booked by my daughter for them and there two girls and both sets of grandparents. I read reviews about it before leaving and was not sure what to expect. But upon arrival it was a beautiful sight to see from check in to check out, we were met with the most kindness and polite people I have ever met including the grounds keepers. the resort is beautiful and very big I have never been to a resort with such big pools and beautiful surroundings. The meals were good and never went  [... read more]below our expectations. all in all I loved it and hope to come back, the kids loved the kids swim and play area. nothing but excellent service and appreciation.

GR Solaris Lighthouse: Great resort

Second time staying at GR Solaris lighthouse always have great service and great food and drink drinks!! people are wonderful there not a huge resort so easy to get around. It’s located in a great area where you can walk to grocery store or local shopping and every Thursday night is the art walk in San Jose del Cabo, which is a short Uber ride!

Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Resort fine, but not the Tripcentral staff person.

i would like to comment on the staff member Eliana. She did not seem to understand basic concepts of travel. For example, i told her we wanted Premium seats, but definitely not the bulkhead. So she went ahead and assigned us to bulkhead seats. I tried to explain to her we absolutely did not want bulkhead. But she did not seem to understand. She wrote back in an email that she had checked with Westjet, and these seats (in bulkhead row) were definitely Premium (??). She just did not understa [... read more]nd. We went ahead and did out own booking in Premium row 3. I would never use her as an agent again. If this is not the right place to make this comment, please forward this on to the appropriate dept. I have used Tripcentral many times in the past, but would never use her (Eliana) again. So i am not sure how i can screen for suitable trip advisors in future. Perhaps you can advise.

Riu Playacar: Amazing resort

I loved every thing about this resort. No negative feedback at all. The beach is wonderful and there is always chairs available anytime of the day. The room was very inviting and clean. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Iberostar Selection Riviera Cancun: We all had an amazing vacation

Tammy from trip central went over and above to help our group of 11 book our vacation The staff at every level on the resort went out of their way to ensure we had a wonderful time Jorge with the entertainment crew had everyone on their feet and in the pool…Silva our pool server was outstanding always bringing drinks with a smile Soni was a huge help with any question we may of had The only draw back is there is no walking beach however there is 5 pools and chairs for everyone

Allegro Cozumel: Beautiful resort

Loved this resort. The beach is great with a beautiful candy bottom and the waves were very calm especially for our grandchildren. The kids pool was amazing .The food was good and the japanese restaurant was so much fun. The staff are so friendly and helpful. Our room was good and stocked daily with water, beer and soft drinks. We'll be back for sure!

Dreams Jade Resort and Spa: Beautiful Stay

We had a great 10 days at this resort - very clean - hardworking staff - very large and spacicous room - beautiful views everywhere ! If you love a beach, this is not the place for you - very rocky - one small section near the perferred pool to go in on sand - we did see some kayaks later in the week going out by the family pool, but I think it's based on the tide. Food was good everywhere - never had to wait for a table, we generally went for dinner around 5:30 - 6 Property is  [... read more]a great size, not long walks to anything - grounds beautiful Preferred pool was great - Melvin and his team did a great job of making sure everyone had a seat - there was quite a bit of saving chairs the first week, but I guess a lot of people left after Family day and you could get a chair anywhere anytime. Lovely resort and would recommend

Grand Oasis Riviera: Beyond expectations

This hotel seems as though it was plopped down in the center of the jungle. There is plenty of trees, flowers and wildlife to keep you entertained. Our oom was exceptional. First ones in it as it had been newly built. It had all amenities a person would want. His and hers sinks. Toilet separate from the shower which was huge. Out on our patio was our own personal cabana and a pool we shared with 4 other rooms. Outsode of that was the pool for the building and the bar with bartender from the ho [... read more]urs of 10 - 6. It was about a 7 minute walk to get to the restaurants. However for us that was just walking off all the food we over ate. Paths were well lit with lots of fountains. There is a cart that can be called to pick you up if you prefer that. The restaurants had delicious and well prepared foods in both Mexican tradition and European tastes. If you can't find something you like there is always salads, fruit, parfaits, and fresh bread and rolls. The store at the hotel is well stocked with the things we tend to forget about when you are packing. The staff was happy to help, they know customer service. If you need a pick me up stop by the coffee shop. They serve an amazing variety. Try to taste them all. You will also find football and pool tables to keep you entertained The main pool has the kids zone and the taco bar. Dont leave your food unattended the Coati like to steal food if you are not careful. The beach you should be prepared for. There is a lot of reef and rocks to walk around. Take your swim shoes. The staff warned us about urchins as well. Once you get out into that warm and beautiful water you will see all types of aquatic life. Take a snorkel. It is an amazing sight. One we are happy we experienced. Our main downfall other then coming home was not being able to find the sunwing/nexus representative. The hotel has blended the sens and the oasis into one and there are 2 lobbies. We found out the day before we left that the representative is not allowed past the gate and is using a part of the building where u get dropped off at. That is a lobby as well. Our concern was if the representative was needed we couldn't find them. Even the employees at the hotel would not inform you where he/she was. The airport was chaos when we landed but the departure was much better organized. The drive from Cancun is long, be prepared. Overall we loved our stay. To us it was 5 star.
