Barcelo Maya Palace: Great Resort

What a great place, beautifully maintained.very quick to fix any issues. Food was excellent, from the buffet to the alacarte restaurants, not a complaint. And as someone with a severely food allergy that is saying a lot. Lots to do, and no pressure if you wanted to just relax.

Secrets Bahia Mita Surf and Spa: Great resort

Secrets Bahia Mita, PV, is a beautiful place to stay. The staff, pools and restaurants met all of our expectations-friendly, helpful, clean and the food was very good if you went to the adults only sit down restaurants. We particularly enjoyed the food and staff at The Blue Water restaurant-beef dishes were outstanding and beautifully presented. It’s close to the beach too and if you’re lucky, you can see it before the sun sets. Not the best place if you have walking issues-beach, large pools an [... read more]d most restaurants are about a 10 minute walk door to door. We would NOT recommend the preferred club upgrade unless you feel you need top of the line alcohol and a more private bar area. Coors light is available and house wines were pretty good! Watch out for the very charming, friendly greeters at the checkin desk and around resort-they try to talk you into a 90 minute presentation re: vacation club advantages. Overall, we’re glad we stayed at this hotel!

Platinum Yucatan Princess: Very good bang for buck

I think overall it's quite good but falls short of real "5 star luxury". I've only been to one other resort which was actually this sister property next door. This definitely felt like a solid step up from that - especially the buffet. Rooms were quite good, we got the private hot tub room but it was more like a regular tub with a few jets. You could add hot or cold water. We were in building one which was pretty quiet but a bit far from restaurants. Went into the town for a day via shuttle whic [... read more]h was $5 USD/person/way. I would return for another week if the price was right.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Best trip ever

I absolutely loved the time i had at the Tulum resort. From the front counter staff that were very attentive and prompt in any of our requests, the wait staff that continously kept us hydrated and entertained, to the entertainment team that kept us smiling. Even the cleaners were pleasant. Everyone made us feel like we were home away from home. I will never forget our new friends and I can't wait to come back.

Riu Flamingos: Perfect week

The service was great. Resort clean and well staffed. Ocean swimming was a blast. The weather report was saying rain the whole time but it was fabulous and a good mix of sun and cloud. It rained briefly overnight but days were amazing! Lots of shade and umbrellas for rent in the beach!

Barcelo Maya Beach Resort: DO NOT WASTE YOUR MONEY – COMPLETE DISAPPOINTMENT AT A “5-STAR” RESORT

I recently stayed at Barceló Maya Beach Resort for a 3-day trip, and it was an absolute disaster from the moment we checked in. I booked this resort based on the glowing 4.7-star reviews and the fact that it’s listed as a 5-star hotel on Google. That rating is completely misleading – I now believe many of those reviews must be fake. This trip was meant to be a special celebration for my friend’s birthday. Instead, it turned into a frustrating, poorly managed experience. Here’s why: • Terrib [... read more]le Transportation: No buggies available anywhere. The only shuttle bus between lobbies runs every 25 minutes, making it extremely inconvenient just to move around the resort. • Faulty Air Conditioning: Our room was hot and uncomfortable. Even after multiple complaints, nothing was done. • Staff Don’t Act on Issues: While the staff were polite, they consistently failed to take action. It felt like we were just being pacified and ignored. • The Food is a Joke: For a resort in Mexico, there was no authentic Mexican food. No tacos. No spice. No flavor. Just bland, low-quality buffet food. The “all-inclusive” option is misleading — it covers only buffet and snack bars. Most à la carte restaurants are paid, and even the paid ones were awful. • Birthday Ruined: I had arranged a birthday cake and wine through guest services, and they assured us the cake would be delivered to our room at 7 PM. We waited. No one came. At 8 PM we called to check, and they casually said the request wasn’t valid because it wasn’t made 24 hours in advance — even though they confirmed it themselves earlier! Totally unacceptable. • Beach Was Dirty: The beach was a huge letdown. It looked beautiful in the photos, but in reality, it was not clean. There were strange red deposits all along the shore – not sure what it was, but it made the water look uninviting and the experience unpleasant. • Pool Bar Chaos: The pool bar had only two staff members serving a huge crowd. We had to wait over 15 minutes just to get a drink. On a hot vacation day, that’s the last thing anyone wants. • The Only Good Thing – Spa: The spa was the only part of this resort that met expectations. Clean, professional, relaxing. Everything else was below 2-star quality. This place does not deserve a 4.7-star rating. If you’re considering it for a special occasion, please look elsewhere. I wouldn’t go back here even for free.

Bahia Principe Explore Coba: Great resort!

The resort was really nice. Very clean and well maintained. The food was good and the staff were very friendly. We went at the end of June though and the beach wasn’t very nice. It might just have been the season.

Breathless Cancun Soul: so good!

I loved it here - the service was amazing and the resort was extremely clean. I truly think it was well done. The food options were great, the rooms were clean, the pools were well kept. Drinks were slightly watered down.

Akumal Bay Beach and Spa Resort: The perfect Resort that healed me❤️

This resort was the absolute perfect haven for the rest, reset and healing that we were looking for. The staff (Omero, Luis, Juan Carlos, Amparo, Alex the Turtle King, Marrisa, Isreal, Gabriel, Adrianna) went above and beyond taking care of our every need, at any given moment of the day. The feeling of being welcomed home from the moment Juan the front desk greeter handed me a cold margarita after our very long travel day to being bid farewell and come back soon as we left in the early morning f [... read more]ully guarantees we will return again. The whole resort was immaculate, beautiful gardens and lovely spaces for meals that were so so amazing. The hard work to remove the seaweed was admirable and I simply cannot express my gratitude for this oasis for my heart and soul. Thank you Akumal Bay Resort for a magical first visit to Mexico xo

Akumal Bay Beach and Spa Resort: Good resort to relax

We had a comfortable week at this quiet, clean resort. Everything worked out well: good management, friendly and enthusiastic staff, relaxing meditation sessions . However, we avoid coming here this season because of sargassum: dirty beaches, plus environment fee, plus visitax.

Seadust Cancun Beach Resort: Amazing experience

We had a great experience, all the staff were so attentive, caring and helpful. It is a family place the kids had a lot of fun, only thing the kid’s pool was closed the last 2 days before our trip finished and the place needs some renovations.

Sandos Playacar Beach Resort: Amazing Family Resort

The hotel exceeded our expectation. I was very scared and not knowing what to expect when booking but I am glad I followed my guts. when we got to the Resort it's was screaming cleanliness, good vibe, the front desk guy was amazing. The atmosphere was very comforting especially when the temperature was over bearing (oven). By the time we were done checking in, we were shown our room and getting in, the bedroom and bathroom was immaculately clean (if there is a better word to describe our room it [... read more] would be it). The food was exceptional, there was food for everyone even the picky eater like myself and the kids lol. The beach and swimming pool was neva crowded and there was games and drinks available. Public washrooms were in very good condition and was always smelling nice. Basically myself and my family did have a blast. The boys still talk about the fun they had. The only negative thing I would say about the Resort was the wait time on getting a mini cart to drive you to the main buffet or the beach and and it does not run 24hrs. With little ones, we had to take the mini cart ( my kids call it Gertrude the train) because its takes about 20mins to walk to the main buffet and another 10mins to the beach, and it was a rush in when it comes due to other families waiting on the mini cart. Overall our stay was fantastic and I would visit again.

Riu Santa Fe: Great time at RIU Santa Fe

Had a great time at Riu Santa Fe. The resort is well kept. Rooms are modern and well equipped. Beds were comfortable. The only complain is that most of the A Lacarte restaurants are buffet style. The steak house is not but you have to line up at 5:00 pm to get a place. I don’t understand why they just don’t take reservations and spare us from standing in the blazing sun for min 45 min. Otherwise the food was good and in abundance. Ancaster

Akumal Bay Beach and Spa Resort: An Upscale Laid-Back Spot

From rooms to food and service, this resort does everything right. My room was very clean and had a recently renovated feel to it. Resort workers and waiters are friendly and fast. There is a small coral reef next to the resort so be sure to pack a snorkel! Live music almost every night made for great nights at the lobby bar after spending the day on the beach. Great food and drinks, you'll never go hungry. An excellent place, especially if you're looking for something lively but laid-back witho [... read more]ut the parties.

Platinum Yucatan Princess: Beautiful Resort

My girlfriend and I spent a week here at the Platinum Yucatan Princess and had the most incredible time. The resort was amazing: beautiful, fun, and friendly. Our junior deluxe room was awesome. It was spacious, clean, and with a gorgeous view. We enjoyed the buffet (especially during breakfast) and made it to the Bruschetta and Rodeo Grill twice each. Loved both restaurants. We definitely enjoyed the 24 hour room service and made use of the food menu most nights. One of our favourite parts was  [... read more]the live music and theatre each night! We had access to the family resort and all their pools, restaurants, bars, etc, which was a quick 2 minute walk from our resort, and found their beaches much more swimmable (due to seaweed at ours). We had no issues walking down to the other beaches for swimming and still enjoyed sitting by the water at ours, especially in the later evenings. One of the highlights would certainly be the amazing and friendly service we experienced. Christopher checked us in and checked us out, he was so kind, very friendly, and made sure we were taken care of. David did a phenomenal job taking our photos and was a pleasure to talk to. Our massage was also great, would definitely recommend visiting the spa! The pools were another highlight, the poolside service was great and the pools themselves were gorgeous. There were so many private pools to relax in and the party pool was a blast. Overall an incredible trip, an amazing resort, no negative surprises from what we had expected and researched, but far exceeded our expectations.

Riu Latino: Short trip great hotel

The food was amazing. The place was clean. There was a club on site. The waterpark was ok. The beaches had some seaweed but if you get pass the shore it's not so bad. The gift shop was pricey. A little far from Cancun.

Secrets Playa Blanca Costa Mujeres: Secrets Playa Blanca, Costa Mujeres

This hotel is top notch, a true 5 star plus. Management is on top of everything. You are frequently asked how is your stay going so far. Could we do something special for you. The food in the a la carte restaurants is above average including Market Cafe. Two Fiesta evenings was a welcome change. Entertainment was provided while we ate. Rendez-Vous outdoor lounge provides early entertainment for those who wish to retreat to their rooms by 9 pm. This was our evening highlight. I woul [... read more]d personally rate Secrets Blanca slightly higher than Secrets Moche Impression in Playa Del Carmen over all. Cheers

Platinum Yucatan Princess: Great resort!

Absolutely, that’s the Place to be at and fully enjoy the surroundings within resort facilities. Food was delicious, pools are clean and spacious, and staff was helpful and courteous! Beach was good only a lot if rocks in the water not sandy at all. Overall, Great vacation at great place for reasonable price.

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: Great stay

This hotel needs to be refurbished but despite that we had a fabulous time Our room was spotless with 3 large bottles if water per day We were in building 7 garden view with its own pool for this area As usual not enough chairs and it was off season Staff were fantastic restaurants were good and festival buffet had a great variety all good The only night was the Asian night which was horrible for me anyways Shopping limited and they need more trolleys as it's quite the hike to beach We p [... read more]aid a reasonable cost for this hotel but wouldn't pay much more for the week Can't say enough good things about all the staff Tip them they work hard for us

Bahia Principe Explore Coba: Nice resort but slightly disappointed

The resort itself was very nice, however due to the unfortunate event with the fire prior to our arrival, it was quite disorganized. We understand the difficulties they were dealing with, but prior to our arrival we were promised full access to Akumal and Tulum resorts as compensation for the facilities that weren't available to us at Coba. However, upon arrival we were informed that they were no longer giving Coba guests full access bracelets due to the main buffet being functional.The buffet f [... read more]ood was very good, but that left us with the option of only having 1-2 A La carte restaurants, which were all completely booked up. We were also not informed of the App that we were supposed to use to book reservations and see the daily events. The room at the resort was very nice, very spacious and the king size bed was nice to have. Housekeeping was good (after we were able to discover that we needed to request through the app). The evening shows at Coba were very well done. We wish we would have known about the hacienda having events (live music, shows) earlier in our stay, but overall very enjoyable entertainment. At the resorts current state, unfortunately I would not recommend it to a friend. There is no appropriate compensation for the Coba guests to really feel you are getting what you paid for. Along with the fire renovations, they are doing extensive renos to villas in the resort, thus making it a loud and busy atmosphere (we understand it has to be done but we feel we should not have to pay full price). We still enjoyed our trip, there was just a few frustrations.
