The Fives Beach Hotel and Residences Playa Del Carmen: Close to perfection

This is a beautiful resort, beautifully maintained and the staff are incredibly helpful! Service here is top notch. The only issues are that it is sometimes difficult to get a dinner reservation and they have trouble accommodating large groups. The beach isn't as nice as the beaches in cuba but the pools make up for it.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Great resort!

This resort was huge but catered to all age groups. We were 5 people,three adults and two teenage boys. The food was great as we had a chance to visit 5 à la carte restaurants. They were all very good. The beach was very windy (red flag all week) be you could still manage to swim in the beautiful crystal clear water. So many fun things to do (surf rider,bowling, shopping,pool animation, scuba,volley..) Not far from Tulum and Playa del Carmen. SOOO many activities! It was a great week for all 5  [... read more]of us! I strongly recommend this resort!

The food and drinks are top notch something for everyone!!! I really enjoyed my stay here as did my 15 year old son....we will definately be back to Barcelo Maya Colonial!! Thank you Tripcentral for all your help!!!

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Great Trip.

This resort is huge. We booked at Colonial but they put us at Tropical. This was a bit of a disappointment because we were there to meet friends for a wedding at Maya Beach (the furthest end of the resort). The Maya was the nicest because it was newly renovated. All 4 resorts were nice, but they definitely started upgrading at the Maya end and haven't finished yet. Food is great, again better selection at the Maya snd Caribe grills for lunch, but nothing is bad. Staff are good. Beach is beautifu [... read more]l (better at the Maya end) and the ocean was warmer than the pools. Pools are cold but refreshing. If you want music and activities go to the Tropical pool.

Excellence Riviera Cancun: Perfect vacation!

Hotel was amazing. 7 restaurants and none required a reservation. Food in all was fantastic and the staff went out of their way to make you feel special. We will definitely be going back to this hotel.

Royalton Hideaway Riviera Cancun: Awesome Resort

Wonderful resort - rooms are spacious and updated. all the dining was excellent. our favourite was the japanese and the steak house. I would definitely return. Staff goes out of their way for you. Our room was upgraded as it was my birthday.

Grand Sirenis Mayan Beach: Great family resort

We enjoyed our stay on this resort for 11 nights. We found the maid service was excellent but room décor a bit dated, enjoyed relaxing down the lazy river daily prior to hiking over to the beach for a dip in the ocean with all the sea life available to see snorkeling. The resort grounds / pool areas were very well maintained for such a large resort and was amazed by all the wildlife we encountered. The daily pool activities were well organized and lots of interaction with guests. Coffee / ice c [... read more]ream shops were a great treat to start our day or top off our evening. We attended a few evening shows at the theater and found them to be excellent. Found the main dining facility food to be a very large selection and very tastefully presented along with great to eat. A la carte's were excellent (Brazilian, Mexican, Japanese, Mediteranian) which we booked upon our arrival. We were assigned a room on the second floor at the top of a stairwell which we found to be very noisy during the evening as most guests used this stairwell to reach their room. We brought this to the front desk attention (Monica) after the first night and she transferred us to a quieter building that day. Our trip was arranged with Air Transat which I feel made this vacation excellent.

Grand Palladium Select White Sand: Beautiful resort

This was our 4th trip to Grand Palladium. The resort is very well maintained and the staff are excellent. My one peeve would be the guests that feed the animals and encourage them to be in public areas.

Blue Bay Grand Esmeralda: Great place

It super clean .. well layer out .. amazing beach .. lots of help everywheres .. food was fantastic .. great for couples or family get aways .. lots to do for young and old .. I'didn't have no problem going back .... A1.

Excellence Playa Mujeres: fabulous for the 4th time

Outstanding customer service, friendly and helpful staff, fabulous food! What more can you ask for? Well, just ask for it and it is likely you will get it here. The pools are extensive and there was lots of room for everyone. No lounger wars here! The beach is nice for those who love the beach, with great food and service on the beach. Great live night time music made our evenings enjoyable. The room service is good, high end beverages - just ask! This is a relatively quiet resort, not too young [... read more] a crowd... and adults only. Restaurants have excellent food and service for an all-inclusive. Do try the French, the Tapas restaurant and the Basmati for sure. The recent addition of a coffee shop is just icing on the cake... we WILL be back!

Bahia Principe Escape Sian Ka'an: Great resort

Lovely modern rooms and staff fairly accomodating regarding special requests. Amazing food with plenty of availability day and night. We found the staff at the pool restaurant somewhat rude however that was only 2 of many staff! The grounds are well maintained. It's a quaint atmosphere and if you are there for "the party", its only a short shuttle to the ocean front resorts. It was disappointing to see a hotel of this stature having "the towel game" played in order to gain a pool side seat! Many [... read more] chairs sat for hours unoccupied. Bad on the guests but would be nice to see the hotel correct this! This is one of the few resorts we would consider revisiting over our years of travels!

Sunset Plaza Beach Resort & Spa: Fantastic with the potential for fabulous

Modern boutique hotel with modern rooms ocean facing views. The hotel is beautifully landscaped and maintained. The food menu's and varieties will satisfy your taste buds for good food. The staff are very hard working, friendly, helpful and went above and beyond to make our stay something special to remember. On certain days the staff in the main restaurant were overwhelmed due to a lack of servers which added to a few lengthy service delays buy hey, we're in Mexico on vacation sit back enjoy a  [... read more]cocktail and the beautiful views. Ivan, Javier, Victor, Gabriel, Johnny the list goes on and on, I don't know if you will see this review but you guys are awesome. We will be back!

Catalonia Royal Tulum: Nice quiet resort

We had the honeymoon suite, which was very quaint and well kept. There were lots of dining options and we enjoyed not having book meals days in advance. Wait staff were on the ball and very friendly. Night time entertainment was always something different which kept things interesting. We loved all of the wildlife on the resort and the beautiful jungle path up the middle of the resort made for a great walk to the beach each day.

Riu Santa Fe: Friendly staff

Very well maintained grounds. Clean rooms. Staff was very accommodating and friendly. Fantastic food with excellent choices. Only downside was, bathrooms are pretty far from the pool. I would return to this resort.

Blue Diamond Luxury Boutique Hotel: Paradise

This is paradise. If you really want to relax, this is the place. The Ambar restaurant should command Michelin Star ratings. The food is amazing and the service is excellent. I recommend the Palafitos suites; with the private rooftop terrasse. 5 Stars+

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: First time out of Canada! AMAZING place

This place was incredible and mind blowing . The good was perfect . And the employees were the most amazing people I have ever met!!! The things they have for kids to do everyday was so sweet and the booze bars were just amazing! Highly recommend

Grand Oasis Sens: If you are 40 and above with bad knees do. Not go

The beach was beautiful but with bad knees you could not get down without a lot of pain. I did get down once and it was just great, if my knees were good this vacation would have been 30% better. I did tell my travel agent we had bad knees. This resort to me out of the last 12 places we visited in Mexico is number 12.

Riu Santa Fe: Extremely friendly staff!

I found the staff was extreme!y friendly and helpful. The maid was very attentive and also inventive with all her towel critters she left on our beds to greet us every day. The entertainment staff were also above and beyond in their helpfulness especially Juan. The resort was well maintained and things were fairly easy to find. It was a very relaxing vacation for myself and my spouse, mind you, if you wanted night life, it was available too. So basically there was something for everyone.

Selection Riviera Cancun: Beautiful resort, great fun for families!

The rooms were clean, comfortable and just as pictured online. The resort grounds are lovely and there was never any trouble getting chairs at the many pools. Food was the best I've had in my many trips to Mexico.

Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya: Breathtaking Resort

Upon arrival this resort is absolutely breathtaking. We could not comment enough how well maintained and expertly run this resort is from everything from the groundskeepers to the restaurant staff and management to housekeeping. Everyone we came across was always professional, pleasant and went above and beyond to acknowledge us whether it was a good morning or just a simple beautiful smile. We were very impressed with the rooms as well. Beyond our expectations and perfect for our celebration. W [... read more]e all had an impeccable vacation at this resort.
