Decameron Los Cocos Guayabitos Ramada: Such a welcoming place.

I enjoyed staying at this resort. It's an older place but keep up very well. Constant cleaning , repairing , painting being done. I noticed some staff are still working that we met from about 8-9 years ago. Must be good for the employees as well.

Barcelo Karmina: Great resort. We would visit again.

Rooms were way better than most resorts. Food was varied and well prepared. Staff are very helpful. Grounds are very well kept. Beach is quite small and neighbouring beaches to stroll on are not readily accessable. Activity staff have a challenge with all the pool areas to cover.

Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas: Great trip

Overall the resort was beautiful and well maintained. Pools were clean and the staff worked hard to keep up the resort. The food and staff were good. Only real downfall for us was we thought the night time entertainment was lacking. The 24hr snack bar could use an update as well. Close to downtown Cabo and sight seeing. So overall a great resort and vacation.

Ocean Coral Riviera Cancun: Always A Pleasure

Initial stay was so impressive, we went back a second time. Resort is well kept with a staff that aims to ensure you enjoy your stay. One of the top beaches in the area. Recommend to anyone, you won't be disappointed!! Twenty min from airport, 25 min to playa

Riu Palace Cabo San Lucas: great hotel for a family or with friends....

Everything (except **) was great, esp. the dining and wining....extremely clean, polite servers, beautiful pool... ** - could do with some more mexican music and entertainment...that disco stuff is so routine these days.....!!!!

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Huge resort!

Rooms were great, staff was very friendly. The only thing I would change is the buffet. There was a lot of variety but it wasn't the best tasting. Other than that it was an amazing vacation and a very beautiful and clean resort

Las Palmas by the Sea: Changed a lot, but okay.

This is an okay resort. Rooms need some updating, staff are great. Good location. Food was not so great. Same stuff a lot of time. We had a good time, but we make the best of everything, and its Mexico so you can eat out! No music at the bar. Air Transat holidays, now that is something I would stay away from. 3 years in a row, late leaving and late coming home. Run out of snacks, so worried about selling you things you wait forever just to get a glass of water. Air Transat - Suck.

Catalonia Royal Tulum: Great Trip

This is a fantastic place to go and relax. We were there as a couple from Jan 2/16 to Jan 9/16 and we had a wonderful time. Food was very good and the drinks as well. We are beach people and it was the best beach we have been to so far in Mexico. The staff were very friendly and service was very good. We would go back again in a heartbeat.

Friendly Fun Vallarta: Lovely Resort!

Lovely place. Friendly. Nice set up. Nice bonus that there was kayaks and room safe included! Everything faces the ocean. Our room was a tad musty smelling... I unloaded my clothes onto shelves, which I wouldn't do next time. We received prompt help with any concerns. Found all lost items. Room was safe. Left my computer and phone several times. Lovely staff folks and lots of activity directors. Surprised there was no late disco dancing, but there was dancing on the beach dancefloor a couple of  [... read more]late evenings. I went to work and got a lot done and was well fed while the 2-16 year old girls I brought played happily and safely throughout this small resort.

Barcelo Ixtapa: Excellent Resort

We had an excellent time at the Barcelo, January 7th to the 14th, though the first couple of day there was a lot of locals and they had preferred service, I suspect it was the language barrier that we face every holiday to a Spanish speaking country, the workers were more comfortable speaking to them in their native tongue. That being said the Barcelo is well located in town, we walk lots in town to check out their wares and go to bars and check out the local culture. The place is clean, the mai [... read more]d service was excelent. The bees were a bit of a nussance as a number of us got bitten. The only complaint was the pool grill, the guys could not eat there unless they had selves on their shirts, we didn't get that. It a casual restaurant and they were dressed, never saw that anywhere else.

Bahia Principe Explore Tulum: Pros and Cons

We had an enjoyable stay at Bahia Principe Tulum. There was a great selection of food in the Buffet, the animals roaming the grounds were delightful, the hotel staff were accommodating - we lost our umbrella and they got us another one; there was a leak in the ceiling above the toilet and they quickly came to repair it - and they were quick to call taxis. The service to and from the Resort from the Airport was also very quick and well done. If however, you are expecting someone to come up to you [... read more]r chair on the beach and ask "May I get something for you from the bar?" that never happened as had been my experience on a previous trip to Cancun. Also we found the hours of the breakfast buffet limited. We arrived for breakfast at 10:25 am only to be told breakfast was over and lunch would start only at 12:30 pm. We then went to the Snack Bar, at which time they were putting out trays of food, but we were told we couldn't have any of it until noon. Overall the experience was good but we will try another resort if we go again.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Great Vacation

Very well kept. Lovely large resort and lots to do. Nice, friendly staff helpful with all requests. Would recommend swimming shoes for the ocean and to use on any swimming excursions. 15-22 $ US at any market or gift shop.

Dreams Huatulco: Amazing view and amazing place to stay

Beautiful view of pools and ocean. Very clean beach , pool , resort. Good selection of beer and alcoholic drinks, bartenders were very good , staff for throughout the resort were awesome. We will be returning

Bahia Principe Explore Akumal: Fantastic Resort

This resort is incredible with very friendly and professional staff and top service. The grounds are beautiful and very well kept. All the restaurants including the Buffet deserve top rating for the food, service and ambiance. Beautiful, clean pools and beach with plenty of chairs. Overall this resort exceeded our expectations.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: good resort

lot of walking food is good a la cart medium beach is rocky rooms are so so great eco resort with wildlife not a good place for kids or older people lots of stairs and walking to rooms or restaurants need more beach

Secrets Huatulco: Good Resort - Great Ocean Views

This was our second trip to Secrets Huatulco (January 2016). The first was April 2013. The view is amazing and the weather is almost guaranteed hot and dry. Our room requests were met and we were very happy with the view. However, the buildings are starting to show their age and the people did not seem as friendly as our first trip. The service seemed slower and less attentive, as well. Perhaps the "newness" is wearing off for the staff - they seemed less motivated. The food was good, not excell [... read more]ent. I had a deep tissue massage which was excellent. Thank you Delores. Unfortunately, we decided to attend the Unlimited Vacation Club presentation which was to last 90 minutes and ended up being three hours. It was very high pressure and stressful. The representative did a good job presenting his case, but we finally decided not to purchase. All in all it was a good vacation, but I think it is time to try a different location. Maybe, you just can't go back and have the same experience as your first visit.

Grand Marival Emotions Resort and Suites: Been at Marival 15 times

Marival is always spotless, staff always welcoming and weather beautiful. Was not too happy with the room we were allocated as it overlooked the staff parking lot and also was meant for people in wheelchairs so only had a personal shower. When Daphne found out she sent us a bottle of champagne and chocolate covered strawberries and a very nice letter. Daphne is the general manager and she came by one night in the restaurant and asked if everything was what we wanted. Overall it is a great resort [... read more] and for the price it is exceptional. Loved to fly with Air Transat due to lots of room in the seats!

Riu Tequila: Best overall resort

We stayed at the Riu Tequila January 11-18, 2016. Of all of the resorts that we have stayed at, 5+ and 3, this one has the best of all the properties that we look for in a vacation. First off I will say that if you go looking for problems, you will find them. Some reviewers complain about age and wear and distance of beach. The positives outweigh these very very insignificant and minor aesthetics. The staff is friendly, helpful and exceptionally interested in comfort. We were a party of 11, so s [... read more]ocial convenience was an asset. The entrance/foyer/ check in was a dream. The restaurants to the left, the outdoor bar, entertainment, sports bar and disco to te right it wasn't loud, it was buzzing with excitement, activity and everyone was smiling. I loved the Mexican feel of the resort, the quaint, greenery covered pathways and a 5 min walk or 2 minute shuttle to the beach was a great way to burn off the excellent food at the buffet. The resort was so close to downtown playa del Carmen and 5th avenue which were great walking and cheap taxi. The beach was fantastic. Well groomed and the sea weed problem was very well taken care of. Not a big deal because we are so lucky to swim in the ocean on a warm day in January! The nexxus tour guide was fantastic. We worked with Alejandra and she suited us to all of our excursions. The only thing we did not enjoy was the coffee. Lucky that there was a Starbucks right around the corner from the entrance. And the resort cat was there to greet us every day!! This resort is reasonably priced, jairus our trip central agent paired us well to this location and we couldn't be happier (even with two solid days of rain-go to rio secreto and xel ha). Go!!

Sandos Playacar Beach Resort: Great Resort!

Wonderful hotel, friendly staff. Adult section is far from the beach and activities. A lot of the evening entertainment is geared to Children, I would have liked to see more entertainment for adults. These are the only drawbacks of this resort. If you are travelling with children there is a lot to do. All restaurants do not require reservations and are casual dresss, eliminating long lines. We were able to try all the restaurants, without any long waits. Amazing French Restaurant serving Filet M [... read more]ignon Steaks.

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Large resort , plenty of beach chairs

The resort was huge with lots of options for dining, swimming and relaxing. Overall good food and service. Beach was nice with lots of fish and even turtles. The negative I would have to say would be our room. We were ground level & it smelt moldy & musty . We asked to be moved and were told nothing was available.
