Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Beautiful Resort

My family came here on a group trip from April 17-24th, 2017. It is beautiful and I love that nature is all around with the monkeys and iguanas and deer everywhere. However our room was wrong as we are a couple and wanted 1 bed not 2. It was unable to be changed but we made the most of it. There is tons of walking and stairs. My mom has 2 replaced hips and it was a lot for her. It rained a couple of days and it was insanely slippery. It took them a long time to put down mats to keep from falling [... read more]. I ended up falling more than once and actually hurt my foot pretty bad. The beach is beautiful. The pools are great but I wish there was more than one with a swim up bar. The a la cartes are great but the buffet gets a bit boring after a while. Also in many areas of the resort there is a terrible smell. I dont know if it's sewage or manure but it is fairly overpowering. Also while we were there one of the buildings roof collapsed onto the balcony below it. Very scary. Overall though it was great. The employees were super friendly and helpful. Just a few things would have made this a near perfect resort.

Barcelo Maya Beach Resort: Amazing trip

This resort was so big and beautiful. Everything was very organized, clean and well managed. The staff was so friendly and nice. Nothing but great things to say about it. The check in was very slow but other than that there we're so many people and things to do we were never bored! Also gorgeous beach!!

The Fives Beach Hotel and Residences Playa Del Carmen: Another fab stay at The Fives

The hotel was beautiful - clean, well groomed and easy to get around. Loved the layout. Even at capacity, it never felt too busy. Food was spectacular and service was perfect. Would definitely go back to the Fives

Grand Sunset Princess: Great rrsort

Excellent grounds, great food, friendly staff. Also well cleaned rooms, done daily. Pools n restaurants were great. Lot of walking as resort is large, however, good exercise. Definitely would return.

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Very good meal

Yes, Except the playa and the beach, everything was perfect. Too much ´´roches' on the beach and on the water... And no many man alone, lol. But that's not your fault hihi......... ............i don't understand why my comments are not going...

Grand Sunset Princess: 5* Resort -- The most honest review you will read!!

Rooms: clean and modern, beds a little stiff Beach&Pools: Amazing! Food: 24 hours a day you will eat and drink like a king! Service: people are friendly and helpful Location: perfect Overall: 5 Star ⭐️

Catalonia Yucatan: Awesome holiday!

This resort was very clean, food was great. We had fun with the suds party! We walked to the marina almost everyday. Lots to see! A great place to go if you just want to relax.the only thing we didn't like was having to get up by 6 to get a shaded lounges on the beach or around the pool.

Grand Sunset Princess: Phenomenal Resort!

This resort was by far the best resort I have been too. I have travelled all around, even living in Bermuda for 6 years. There was a group of 7 of us and we all feel the same. From the delicious food (Buffett & restaurants), we never had a disappointing meal. The rooms were always cleaned very well, the shower pressure was ideal. For the first time on an all inclusive we never even made it to many of the night time shows because there was always so much to do, with lots of entertainment. I would [... read more] rate this resort 10/10 and will be visiting again 😁

Grand Sunset Princess: Amazing Resort!

Everything about this Resort was amazing, food was top notch, beach, pools, restaurants, service! There was 7 of us who booked together through trip central and could not have been happier! Sad to be home and can't wait to go back, highly recommend

Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya: Bad experience

We had a bad experience with booking an excursion with the staff in the towel huts. It was raining hard with thunder and lightning and heavy rain. The trip should have been cancelled as we booked a catamaran and the conditions were unsafe. We should have been refunded but the staff was laughing at us and told us we're in Mexico and we're taunting us to do something stupid. The Food wasn't very good either only the sushi was good. The entertainment staff and pool bar staff were excellent though. [... read more] Nightlife is very poor as well and if you are going with more than 4 people find a new place to go because you will never be able to eat together since they don't take reservations and don't want to accommodate you. There will be empty tables they could put together but they just won't do it. Our whole group of was very disappointed.

Breathless Riviera Cancun: Very loud all night party!

Clean, fun resort with fabulous food! BUT the all night pool/beach party on Saturdays is no joke. Our room was in the 5000 building on the party pool side and the music blared ALL NIGHT until 7am. Even with earplugs it was like sleeping next to a loud speaker. There were only a handful of people down at the party, so not sure why they needed to have the music that loud all night long!...I can understand if we were the only ones not at the party, but there was barely anyone. Other people who had [... read more] rooms surrounding this pool reported sleeping on the floor in the bathroom, hoping the added door would insulate from the noise...it did not! The hotel staff were actually quite rude and didn't seem to care much about the complaints they were receiving...just laughed and/or ignored you. We were told that the party is also for local people coming in from other areas, who paid a small fee to come party at our resort for the night. We had a tour booked for the next morning with a 7am pickup time, which we went up to the lobby and had the hotel staff change at 4:30am, since we had not yet had a wink of sleep at this point. The beach isn't great. It is hard (almost like concrete with a bit of sand on top). There are hedges that partially block the view from the beach chairs and the water has quite a few rocks. The hotel grounds and pool areas are very clean. The service by the pool is good...always someone walking around asking if you want a drink...but there are also many bars so you can easily grab a drink yourself. The hotel rooms are very clean and comfortable. The food and service in the a la carte restaurants is very good and no reservations are required...first come, first serve. The alcohol is all premium brands. We were there for 10 days (arrived Sunday morning and departed Tuesday evening) and really enjoyed our stay up until the pool party night...the lack of sleep threw off the last few days of our trip and the lack of concern from the staff was off-putting. The entertainment staff were very friendly, but the rest of the staff in the lobby, coffee shop and some bars were very rude. We would not go back to this resort.

Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya: The Valentin Imperial Maya is an amazing resort - we have been there FIVEtimes and we still love every minute!!!!!es and we sto;; to,e

We have stayed at the Valentin FIVE times and it still is the 'best kept secret'!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE LOVE THE PLACE AND THE PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Andy and Anne Behnan Guelph, Ontario N1H 6G5 Canada anne.behnan@gmail.com WE WILL BE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Andy & Anne

Bahia Principe Explore Coba: Beautiful expansive resort

The property has everything you would desire at an all inclusive resort. Very friendly people, delicious sumptuous food and lively entertainment. We also enjoyed the guided bicycle and eco tours. We are already planning another trip in June of this year.

Platinum Yucatan Princess: Fun in the sun

grounds are beautiful. very clean. beaches are not Cancun so get a swim out suite. This is my second stay here and I am a little disappointed in the food. Absolutely flavorless.fresh but no taste. The food was amazing before and a big part of why I returned.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Amazing Resort-Grand Bahia Principe Tulum Mexico

This resort is amazing, the food is so fabulous, from the prawns, crabs lobsters, fish, fall off the bone chicken and wings, to the mouth watering beef. I cannot say enough about this resort. the California King size bed. The cleanliness of the rooms and resort. The grounds and gardeners they got us coconuts. The beach always a beach chair or palapas. The restaurants and the people are so amazing. Great size rooms. The pools are very large and very clean, No mosquitos did not see a single one. N [... read more]o flies either. Bathrooms around the resort very spotless and everything working. They have trollys that take you around the resort from rooms to lobby or beach and they take you from one resort to another or shopping all for free. There's 4 resorts on the very secured grounds and they are all amazing I recommend all 4 of them for their great services, Luxury Grand Bahia Principe Akumal, Grand Bahia Principe Tulum , Grand Bahia Principe Coba and Grand Bahia Principe Sian Ka An.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Nice Grounds but Food is just OK

Nice resort, a little big for my taste. The beach area was nice, great for small kids. The food was not at all what I expected since I heard from many people that Mexico always has good food. I will not be going back to this resort. The rooms were nice and clean.

Selection Riviera Cancun: Great resort!

Resort was great - pools were amazing, rooms were large and clean. Views from the balcony were beautiful. Food was great, lots of variety. Loved that all restaurants were without reservations (except for Le Chique) so you could just show up anywhere and likely wait minimally for a table. Kids' club was nice as well, my kids enjoyed it! Beach however wasn't great. Lots of seaweed, lots of rocks. There was however a great little BBQ area on the beach, which almost made up for it!

Bahia Principe Explore Coba: Great resort

The rooms were very comfortable, very clean, spacious and well serviced. The bed was very comfortable. The pool and other facilities were well maintained, clean and well manicured. Buffet restaurants served good food with a great selection. Service was a little spotty at times, but overall well done. The a la carte restaurants were great with excellent service and excellent food. Trolleybus Service also was very efficient. Our daughter and family were in a different resort last year and k [... read more]ept on commenting on the better quality of this one. It was our first time in Mexico and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Yes, we would recommend this to a friend.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Amazing resort

Amazing place with lots to do. Service was wonderful and always greeted you and helped if needed. Night shows were fantastic and also has a disco opened till 2am. You'll see monkeys hanging out in the trees, deers in the bushes, iguanas and geckos on the paths and also koatis. Tons of good food options and Paco tacos was opened till 2am also. The beach was large enough and water was also deep enough also. The beach had lawn chairs, hammocks and beds. Which you would need to reserve them before 9 [... read more]am or earlier or they may be taken. Our rooms were beyond our expectations, comfy king size bed, TV cable, an and a full mini fridge. The xcaret Park was cool to see if you haven't gone before, the package doesn't include most activities the park offers however, each are an additional cost. Our shuttle bus was an hour and a half late (not the resorts fault) but the resort offered to pay for all our cabs to the airport. Hope to come back to the same resort someday!

Ocean Riviera Paradise: Beautiful resort

The Ocean Riviera Paradise is definitely a beautiful resort. We chose to stay in the Eden Swim Up Suites because the building was closest to the beach. However, the beach is the biggest turn off of this resort. The beach itself is nice, it is when you go to get in the water. The rocks are huge, sharp and chances are you will come out either with cuts, bruises or both. The food and drinks are great as are the majority of the staff. They have put great detail in the decorating of the resort  [... read more]and it shows. Not sure how all that detail is going to keep clean but right now it looks great! If you are a beach person, stay way and avoid the disappointment....
