Royalton Hideaway Riviera Cancun: Great Resort!!!!

The hotel was amazing! The service staff was always readily available and went above and beyond! The food was also great(which you would never hear that from me from previous resorts) The only down fall that we saw was the hotel was lacking in entertainment of any kind! There was nothing going on even during the day to make you want to stay and not venture out, even the music at the adult pool was less than desirable! Other than that it was a great hotel.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Second visit

This was our second visit to Barcelo Resort, we will likely go there again next year as it has everything we require. Food choices, service and entertainment . The new mall and new restaurants were exellent. A great addition to what they already had.

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: Overall, a good resort

Hotel and food good. Service at steak restaurant needs improvement. The waiter was not very good, plus steak was not cooked properly. We found the resort too spread out. For example the beach area is a long way from the Gardenview area.

Grand Sirenis Mayan Beach: Great Experience

Great food, Great weather, Great service, Great trip. Prepared to go back anytime. Once you got over the long trip from airport to hotel you were met at the lobby with a drink and the drinks kept coming. Friendly, safe resort. Met lots of amazing people from all over the world.

Selection Riviera Cancun: Amazing resort

We travelled with our 5 month old daughter for the first time and chose this resort for the family friendly atmosphere and amenities. Even if we were traveling only as a couple it would have been just as special! The staff was so amazing and the food was incredible!! The attention to details and special attention and care from the staff have assured that we will be returning to this resort or one of its sister resorts in the future.

Ocean Coral Riviera Cancun: amazing resort

hotel maid service food landscape facilities all excellent ocean view room as requested at arrival long sand beach good for walks but not recommended for swimming. in my opinion water murky and too much seaweeds

Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya: Good but not so good

Long waiting always...Checking in, at all the restaurants, even the buffet. You need to be checked your room number and name. Very friendly staff but evening show and food are not that good, not recommended for the money

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Perfect winter getaway

Starting with the rooms, they were perfect. We splurged and got the roof-top jacuzzi suite and ended up having our private rooftop patio conjoined with another couple that came with us. That led to some pretty fun private parties. This was also the perfect place to escape to after the one rainy day we had - you can't be cold in a jacuzzi. We had one day without hot water in our room, which included the jacuzzis. That was our only half-negative review of the rooms, though I'm sure it is not a co [... read more]mmon issue. Sian Ka'an was a short shuttle ride from the beach. It was the first time we've stayed somewhere that wasn't beachfront, but it really didn't affect us much. There were only lines waiting for the shuttles if it were about to rain. The food across the resorts was great. Sian Ka'an's international restaurant had relatively small portions (compared to the rest of them) but was some of the best steak I've ever had. The Italian restaurant closer to the beach was incredible as well - we almost filled up on the salad bar before our meals came. One of the best parts of staying at Sian Ka'an was the private beach area. It was in the best part of the oceanfront, close to a fun (though small) beach bar where those working it really enjoyed helping the guests relax or party.

El Dorado Seaside Palms: Exceptional!

This was our second trip to EDSS. The resort has only gotten better since we were there seven years ago. The food was exceptional. We really like not having to make meal reservations. We received a complimentary anniversary package which included a candlelit dinner on the beach and breakfast in bed the next morning. The staff was very accomodating to all of our requests. We had a beachfront suite that was kept spotless. We ended up purchasing a 30 week Vacation Package and are looking forward to [... read more] returning to EDSS and also trying the other Karisma resorts and hotels.

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Sian Ka'an is an amazing place to vacation!

The hotel was absolutely beautiful. My husband and I vacationed at the very same resort in May of 2014, and we went back this Jan/Feb 2015 again, and we were not disappointed. The hotel is clean and lovely, the grounds are spectacular, the staff is some of the best we've ever experienced, the food was fresh, tasty and the variety was plentiful. I enjoyed the yoga classes at the Tao Centre while my husband enjoyed the golf. I had the best massage of my life at the Tao Centre, better than anything [... read more] I've ever experienced at home in Toronto. I was able to walk to the yoga class each morning - about a 20 minute walk (you can take the shuttle if you want to) - and the yoga class was followed by either a meditation class or a zumba class. The yoga instructors are top notch, not just kids. This is an 18 and over resort, and we appreciated that fact. We had access to the other three resorts - Tulum, Coba and Akumel when we wanted to party. There is also a centre called Hacienda which houses a disco after 11:30pm, plus various other activities and shops during the day. If you are not inclined to take the tours offered by the travel companies, you can take the "collectiva" or the bus to Tulum or Playa Del Carmen (or wherever) and it only costs $3USD pp. (Ask the shuttle driver to drop you off close to the road in the direction you wish to travel). We visited the beach in Tulum and sat at a patio bar right on the sandy beach, had some tacos with fresh habanero peppers in fresh lime juice, and a couple of beers ... it was heaven. Since arriving home February 6th, we are already trying to figure out when we can get back there. If you book a superior suite, it comes with butler service!!! Ask for Arturo, he was amazing!!! Our only disappointment was to see that other travelers were not tipping the staff. These people worked their butts off to please you, so please reach into your pocket and show your appreciation ... don't be an el-cheapo!!

The Fives Beach Hotel and Residences Playa Del Carmen: Family resort

Resort was beautiful they preserved the tree areas all around the resort which the spider monkeys live in and swing from tree to tree. The staff were all very friendly an kind. Especially the bar staff! There were several options for dinning which was all amazing from presentation to taste the food was exceptional. The beach was quite a walk from our room so pack a bag an plan to be down there for the day.

Dreams Riviera Cancun: Amazing Resort & Awesome Staff!!!!

This was our second time at Dreams Riviera Cancun and it was just as great as the first. The hotel is beautiful and not too big. The grounds are immaculate and the service is impeccable! I will definitely return in the future

Catalonia Playa Maroma: Could be better

My husband and I just got back today and the hotel was ok. We had the privileged rooms but really wish we hadn't wasted our money upgrading. We arrived at the hotel at 11am. With privilege you get early check in, however we didn't get a room until 3pm. We were travelling with a 3 year old who was really tired but we made the best of it. We found a toilet and got changed. The beach was amazing, no disputing that. The pool was cold each day but once you were in it was ok. The food wasn't bad, it's [... read more] not home cooking but ok. The problem was, everything was cold unless you got them to prepare right in front of you. The "a la crates" we're very good. Staff I can't say one way or the other as no one really bothered with us. So many French speaking people had them all around them. It really does seem to cater to the French. Even all our information was in french. I would probably tell people it's a good place to go but won't return myself.

Royalton Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa: Will be an amazing resort!

The food, services, entertainment, gym, rooms are all great! I wouldn't hesitate to recommend this hotel to anyone. Downsides: still spots that are under construction and the beach needs to be cleared more often from seaweed. Other than that, it was fantastic.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Maya Suites: Great Resort

We stayed here for the 3rd time and enjoyed our self as usual. It was nice to see some changes like the Casino and the Star Cafe. The Food at the Bufffet was amazing, the a la cartes can use a bit of a change though. Trip Central made the process effortless, this was the easiest trip I ever booked. Our Agent Doug provided amazing service. Our Transat rep at the resort was a bit pushy, he called us (2) mornings in a row at 8:15 to book excisions. Other then that an amazing trip.

Ocean Coral by H10: Great resort lots of fun! Really good people.

the hotel was beautiful. The food was great and the grounds well kept. The only thing they could do better is to have entertainment in the lounges. Example piano bar, guitars, or jazz. Just something would be nicer than nothing at all.

Bel Air Collection Xpu-Ha Riviera Maya: Great family resort

I wasn't sure what to expect from reading the reviews on trip advisor, but I was pleasantly surprised. It's a small resort so if your going for the food there isn't the variety as at a large resort but what they have was great for my family. The rooms were great, the kids loved the jacuzzi in the room and the deck with the hammock and lounge chairs were great. There are animals all over the resort which is cool(they are fenced in), the cenotes are amazing at the resort which you can kayake with  [... read more]manatees or snorkel as well. They have a new attraction which for a fee you can swim with a sea lion, we purchased the cd which was suppose to have the pictures on but to my disappointment was blank:( but overall we had a great time.

Royalton Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa: The Beautiful Contemporary Royalton

The Royalton Riviera Cancun.Wow. Stunning to look at. The buildings are clustered close together,so not a lot of walking to be done.Pools everywhere! Wedding chapel very unique,a must see even if you aren't getting married there.

Oasis Tulum: Nice Beach, a bit rocky.

Great beach and the little coffee bar was the best. Service staff was great, management was not quite as good. Shows were pretty good. We got an old room and a long way from the beach. It took a long time to get to the airport when you add 3 extra stops.

Ocean Maya Royale: Amazing Resort!!!

Liked the area of our room. The ground & the hotel and also the rooms were very clean.The entertainment was fantastic both at the pool & the evening shows. The a la carte restaurants were exceptional and had a good variety in the buffet.Employees were very helpful and friendly. My only beef is no beach - could not take long walks along the beach. Enjoyed our two weeks stay and would love to do it again.
