Grand Sunset Princess: Above Average Mid Tier Resort

Stayed from March 28 - April 4 in the Platinum Section of the resort. Large spacious rooms and clean. Resort overall is extremely cleaned and maintained. The staff is great and accommodating. Food is average, drink service is great. Spa service is great and priced reasonable. Chill out beach is worth the extra cost for the private beach and drink service have dinner on the first night and it is complimentary for the entire week. Don't miss the Mexican market night and if you book Platinum sectio [... read more]n go to the Gala dinner. Walk from Beach to main lobby is 15mins. The shuttle runs from the lobby to Platinum lobby every 15 mins. Great resort for family and groups. For couples stay in the Laguna villas or Platinum suites. Adults only in Laguna Villa's. Family area is great for kids from 2-10. Main pool is party area depending on time of year and if you are not looking for loud music and into overindulging on the beverages then try a different part of the resort for the week. I would return if with a large group or staying in the Platinum Section. As couples then the Laguna Villa.

Grand Oasis Cancun: Party resort/ lots of drug being sold/staff trying to extort you

Great grounds, awesome beach, the rooms are not the best but this hotel is purely for partying and entertainment. Was down at spring break and had a few complaints, heard entertainer announce "the molly is ready for you on the beach " (Drugs) and I did not like how you were asked if you wanted drugs any time you went down to the beach even during the day!!! Also found that hotel staff tried to extort you trying to make you over pay for drinks in the clubs and threaten to call the police w [... read more]hen you ask for the menu with the drink prices.

Barcelo Maya Caribe: Over the top!!

Just returned 2 days ago and are already discussing that we MUST return! Everything you want from a vacation all in one resort: free dolphin shows, theatre shows, poolside entertainment and games, kids splash pads, kids pools beside the adult pools, water slides, white sandy beach (with some rocks), delicious food and a la cart restaurants. The grounds are constantly being cleaned and gardens are beautiful. The Caribe is in the perfect location on the resort as it is central to all the amenities [... read more] that everyone wants to see. No need to use the the on site bus service that travels the grounds when staying at the Caribe.

Crown Paradise Club Cancun: Great Value...

We travelled as a group of 4 Adults & 6 kids. Overall the experience was good. I would rank it a 4 star Positive - Great weather, Great Value as the kids we free, friendly staff, A-la-carte restaurants food was very good Negative - Pool water too cold, lunch buffet needs more variety...especially being in Mexico (more Mexican cuisine) Kids club is OK. Staff is great however the grounds need more space for parents to hang out while kids are there. Not every parent is content with leavi [... read more]ng them.

The Reef Coco Beach: Wonderful Resort!

Super nice resort! Clean, friendly and good food...(no sign of tourista) shows every night at 8pm, different activities throughout the week, if you're interested and located close to 5th avenue (shopping) as well as 12th street (dancing bars). Safe!!! The beach is small and lots of boats park in front of resorts. We didn't mind it, was actually picturesque and for a bigger beach, just walk to the left...

Friendly Fun Vallarta: Excellent Family Resort

Smaller Resort that included friendly staff and great food. Wouldn't recommend the spa but otherwise it was an overall great stay. We'd hoped for a slightly more progressive entry beach but it was still very clean and well kept. Very family friendly with lots of things to do.

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Best resort we have ever been to, bar none.

The rooms were spacious and they were always clean and well stocked with all the necessary amenities. We have returned for the third time and it definitely will not be the last. We enjoyed the pools and we are impressed with the way your staff are constantly cleaning and catering to our needs.

Iberostar Selection Paraiso Lindo: Fantastic!

Beautiful resort, beach to die for, multiple salt water pools, amazing food and service, fun show's every night. Only 30 minutes from the Cancun airport. This is one to book for your next family vacation.

Barcelo Maya Beach Resort: Very nice resort

Beautiful resort. Impressed with beauty and cleanliness of the grounds. Loved the palm trees on the beach and throughout the resort. Solid food and generally friendly staff. Two big thumbs up from the entire family including kids.

Grand Sunset Princess: Grand Sunset Princess

The resort is lovely grounds, very big, use of shuttle a must. Pools were great, lots of them. Sports Bar was very disappointing, staff did not care about patrons, service was terrible!!! Everywhere else was fine. Service was fine, food was ok. Room was adequate but far from everything. Overall nice vacation but not sure we would return.

Sandos Caracol Nature Resort and Water Park: Don't do it!

We have been travelling for many years to Mexico, DR, Cuba, as well as Asia and have to say, we were quite disappointed with this one. Normally, we can put bad things aside as we are travelling to underprivileged Countries but this one is not to the same standard as others. The pool was filthy, even my 10 and 8 year old kids did. To want to swim in it because it looked so cloudy. In the morning, sometimes, a man would come and brush the sides, we seen a vacuum twice only. The afternoon was  [... read more]filthy. My daughter had a rash and we suspected it was a heat rash, but then she was itchy where she did not even have a rash, so we paid to get a drug store to deliver calamine lotion for her as she was too uncomfortable. We stayed in an older part of the resort, which really showed its age. That is fine, but the a/c did not function well, and the fridge did not work at all. The buffet foods were mildly warm (even at the start of the opening hours) and very typical. These were our primary concerns. I have been travelling South for over 20 years and this is the first trip where I was deeply disappointed. I was going to write Jean and let him know so that he can inform others so hoping this will help him. Thank you Wendy O'Quinn

El Dorado Seaside Palms: Amazing Resort

Resort was great! Do not let the smaller entrance fool you, the resort is large beautiful and fantastic staff. The entire staff friendly, kind and enthusiastic. Food was fantastic and never had difficulty finding food, even with dietary restrictions. Great time, only down side is slightly rocky beach. I would go back in a second

Bahia Principe Explore Coba: Its amzing resort

Everthing is great we enjoy the time service really gud food is good to and drink and resturnt food is good to soo we enjoy all the stay and we have fun and my son like the pool and beach and we went to snorkly and chonte

Akumal Bay Beach and Spa Resort: Beautiful resort

We couldn't have ask for a nicer room. We were so close to the beach . It was not crowded, we were always able to find a chair on the beach . There were hammocks in front of our deck. The staff were always very friendly and wanted to do anything they could for you . Really enjoyed the week.

Grand Palladium Kantenah: Great Resort

I really enjoyed my stay! I was very impressed at the cleanliness at all parts of the resort. My only complaints would be that the a la carte restaurants aren't open for lunch so you can't go to all 9 in a week.

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: Blue Bay not so blue

Swimming at the beach is a priority to me but at this hotel was a HUGE disappointment. The beach water was brown and full of seaweed. The bottom was sandless rocky and muddy. I would have appreciated knowing this before booking this vacation. Other than the water this is a great place with plenty of swimming pool swimming.

Barcelo Gran Faro Los Cabos: Went for a wedding

Resort is small but well maintained. Drink service around pool was good. Wait staff at Breakfast and Lunch always great especially Elvis and Karen. Food at Buffets and a la cartes were really good with a lot of choice. Supper wait staff were good until you were in a group of 8 or more. They couldn't handle the drink orders or any other requests for extra utensils, glasses, etc. One person in the group got their beer 45 minutes after ordering it. In small groups, the service was great. Ro [... read more]oms were basic. The view from our room was of 2 buildings made of concrete with a view of the ocean between. We hadn't ordered an oceanview room so weren't too concerned. One tip is to make sure you request a king bed before going if you need one. Those that didn't got 2 doubles. Beach was nice for walking but no swimming allowed. The under tow was horrible. That didn't stop some guests from risking their lives even though a black flag (Do Not Swim for risk of death) by swimming well out from shore. Saw whales breaching from shore and sting rays jumping out of the water. Check in and out was quick and efficient. The outdoor wedding went off without a hitch except for the pesky seagull that pooped on one of the guests. That wasn't the hotel's fault though. Food and dancing after was great on another outdoor patio. Had to be done around 10:30pm so we didn't disturb any of the guests with rooms right above it. The rest of the group headed for the Sky Lounge. We didn't as we knew if was extremely loud and we had to leave the next morning. Biggest complaint I have has nothing to do with the resort. We were in line for 2 1/2 hours at the airport waiting to get through immigration when we got there. We heard every Saturday is like that. The airport has to do something about that. I guess it made the drink when we got to the resort that much better. Also on the way back, had to sit on the tarmac for an extra hour while they found a fuel truck. Overall, airport was disorganized. I don't think they know how to handle all those people. It was obviously never built to handle that many people and airplanes coming in or leaving. To those people that decided to go around to get right in front of the person handling a wheelchair down the ramps...get out of the way. You have no idea how hard it is to maneuver one of those down a ramp going backwards so the wheelchair doesn't get away from them. Just be patient. You got no further by going around and in fact risked your own life or limb (mainly a foot). Please people, use your brains or what's left of them after a week of heavy drinking and eating.

Akumal Bay Beach and Spa Resort: Great Resort

We stayed at Akumal Bay Beach Resort March 26-April 2 2017 Great resort if you are looking for a small resort. Every room has an ocean view. We were in building 4. We had our own bar right outside our room. Resort was right on the beach no long walk to get to the water. Beach was rocky in front our building had to walk down the beach a little to swim. Snorkeling but you cannot use flippers. This is new this year. They are trying to preserve the reef and not stress the turtles. Food was [... read more] good. Never a problem getting a chair on the beach. We had our own pool at our building. No line-ups. When we arrived we were met by Abel who gave us a great tour of the resort. He was very helpful and pleasant.

Flamingo Cancun Resort: Great beach

This is a small resort with half mexican tourists and the other half international tourists. Small pools and very small selection at the buffet. The Albatros a-la-carte restaurant is just as small, but some of the items on the menu are fantastic : filler mignon, salmon fillets, the crepes with chocolate ... The room we've had was of a 2 stars hotel ... it looked old and poorly maintained, no fridge, ni bottled water daily, beat up beds and pillows, extremely noisy (facing to the busy street  [... read more]and also close to the elevator), with small cockroaches in the bathroom and closet. There were also extensive renovations being done to the beach side of the hotel ... with all the dust, debris and sweaty workers walking around carrying bags of cement and metal bars ... The only thing that actually was great was that the small beach they have was clean, had enough sun-umbrellas and lounge chairs for everyone - the beach and the ocean and the sun .. that is what made our vacation a time to remember.

Barcelo Huatulco: Good Resort

We had a nice, clean room with an ocean view. Loved that we could make reservations for all of the restaurants at the same time as check in. The staff were friendly and very helpful. We really enjoyed the adult pool.
