Grand Decameron Complex Bucerias Trademark: Basic, Clean, Nice

Resort is big but not huge. YOU can easily go from one point to another by foot. Grounds are nice, rooms are clean, food is OK. Rooms are basic (very basic)- like no fan in the bathroom, just open a window... Perfect resort if you are over 69 years young. drinks are good, music played at the bars is perfect. Entertainment- not that great. Embarrassing moments at times. You can avoid them, as they only stay at one of the pools. Over-all I give it a 6 out of 10. Location is not great either. Be pr [... read more]epared to pay 25USD every time you want to go somewhere (even in the paid trips- no transportation from this hotel). Do not go with children there. Not a family resort.

Fiesta Americana Riviera Nayarit: Great resort

Resort overall - the resort overall was great. Always clean, staff was always friendly and ready/willing to help out. It is just a smaller resort than what I am used to compared to Dominican. The beach space was much smaller but was big enough, we never had an issue with not finding seating. I liked that there was a server that came directly to your seats to get your drink order. That was fantastic and the server was very attentive. A few cons- it got pretty quiet at night - we were 45 mins away [... read more] from downtown and it seems like the resort kind of shut down after 10. They always had some sort of show or something going on but it never lasted long or late into the night. No disco or anything like that. So definitely a nice, peaceful resort if that's what you're looking for. My boyfriend and I are in our late twenties and we would have liked a little more activity at night. Another con - they always say they include non motorized sports in your package but we only saw a few kayaks and some boogie boards. Aside from that, I don't think they had anything and they were never laid out on the beach like I've seen it done at other resorts. I think they need to make people better aware of the equipment. I only realized on the last day that they had boogie boards that I could use in the ocean. Would have loved to use them more often. Lastly, what really ticked me off big time is that we got charged for a movie we never watched! My boyfriend looked through the movies you could order but never selected any of them. Then when we checked out, their "system" had a record of us watching a movie from 1145 to 115 am one night. First of all, I don't think we stayed up past 1115 or 1130 any night. Second, that was our second day of outdoor trips. We were exhausted and went to sleep by 1030. So I don't know how the TV magically went on and ordered this movie but we were forced to pay because the manager conveniently didn't come in until later and by then we would have missed our transportstion to the airport. I know it's not the end of the world, but it's the principle of the matter and the fact that they wouldn't just take our word for it that really bugged me. I have no problem paying for services used, but I have a huge problem with being charged for something I never used. Rooms - big, spacious, beautiful. We had a jacuzzi on the balcony which was wonderful. We were very comfortable in our room and the maid did a great job of cleaning up every day. However, our clothes felt humid and wet after a few days in the room which was a bit gross. And on the 6th day of our trip I realized the sheets hadn't been changed. Now, I don't know if our maid hadn't changed them at all or just hadn't changed them for a few days. Regardless, the pillows smelled weird at that point and I could feel a bit of sand in our bed. Obviously this is very unpleasant and disappointing for what we paid for our trip. We expected more so that was definitely a disappointment. Service - great, people were friendly and social and made us feel welcome.

Fiesta Americana Puerto Vallarta: beautiful resort

Staff was amazing, so friendly, my only complaint was the buffet at night, should not be a Fahita house every night. The house cleaning staff was awesome, our room was cleaned twice a day. Very close to Puerta Vallarta, five minutes by taxi

Sandos Playacar Beach Resort: amazing staff and resort

Great resort! beautiful grounds, amazing staff, great food! Loved the cupcake cafe, this is a lively resort but at the same time, easy to find quiet spot. Only minus was the amount of seaweed on the beach but the staff did try to clean it up. Apparently this was due to the season. Weren't for the seaweed the beach would have been spectacular. Thanks to Mrs Delgado for getting us an mazing location for our pool, thanks to Idris at reception for his wonderful help nand for going beyond the call of [... read more] duty.

Azul Ixtapa Resort: Great resort!

The food was very good and the service was absolutely amazing. We have been to several other resorts and the service here was better than anywhere. The rooms were spotless. The only thing that could be improved would be to have a "quiet" pool without music or anyone yelling into a microphone.

Paradise Village Puerto Vallarta: Amazing resort!

This was an amazing resort! Incredibly beautiful beaches, super clean rooms, common areas and beach area. Food was amazing! Loved the gym, saunas etc. Lots of great theme nights and entertainment. Would for sure go back.

Barcelo Karmina: Fantastic Resort!! Very Beautiful Grounds

Karmina Palace is a beautiful place! Grounds are very beautiful, pool areas and beach are very nice. Not a problem to get chairs if you get out if bed before 9 or 10am.. Restaurants are very good, with lots of choices for everyone. The rooms are nice, but have a step down to sitting area, or beds if you have double suite.. My girlfriend had to buy a nightlight for safety reasons.. This hotel is very busy, with lots of large groups travelling together

Sandos Cancun: Second time even better!

This was our second time staying at Sandos Playacar. The location is excellent - the safe, gated community of Playacar, walking distance to Playa del Carmen, and a beautiful beach. We were pleasantly surprised that they have eliminated the need for reservations at the a la cartes. We had consistently great meals at the Asian, Brazilian, El Gaucho steakhouse and the Italian, with no wait times at any of these restaurants. Breakfasts at the main buffet were full of quality selection and lunches at [... read more] Riviera Blue snack bar were so convenient beside the pool. The staff are so friendly and helpful. My daughter is 12 and she thought the entertainment staff were fabulous, promoting dancing on the beach and volleyball in the pool, among numerous other activities we observed during our stay. The wildlife experience in the resort and the maintenance of the grounds are also very impressive. The rooms are well equipped (we've stayed in both the adults only and the Riviera family sections) and adequate. My only recommendation would be that an extra blanket be provided for each of the beds as the one blanket currently provided is very thin and inadequate(I understand that beds have comforters in the hacienda suites). Our mini fridge was restocked daily with beer, water and pop and our special requests were always fulfilled. The pools are very well maintained and a perfect temperature. No need to play the 'towel on the chair game' as there were always more than enough lounge chairs at both the pool and the beach. Overall, a very favorable all inclusive experience!

Riu Flamingos: good hotel for the amount paid

Hotel was clean and had many food options. Entertainment was typical to other resorts. Movie on the beach was amazing. The biggest issue for me was that if you don't tip, you get no service at the bars or restaurants. It felt like you had carry your wallet with you from morning till night to get service. I wouldn't pay more than $1200 for this resort

Crown Paradise Club Cancun: Too much fun at Crown paradise

the resort was great - lots of things to do - good food - nice - I have no complaints- we slept to the sound of the ocean, looked at the ocean every morning - could make coffee every day the minin bar was stocked with both water and beer eveyday - I would return tommorrow

Grand Decameron Los Cabos: Cute and Cozy

We liked the resort it was cute and cozy, the staff were nice, the rooms were good, the beer they serve isn't that good, they don't offer corona, food was ok, cant swim in the ocean. We liked the pub across the street as it has the coldest beer in town and very cheap. The disco was always empty and most people at the resort were over 50 years old, so it is quiet in the evenings. We traveled a lot to the city and did activities there, if your looking for a nice quiet vacation this is the place, i [... read more]f you want to party this isn't the resort for you!

Las Brisas Huatulco: Everything that we wanted.

We really enjoyed our stay at Las Brisas and it's a place we go back to. We love the elevations, the beautiful grounds, the walkways along the water, the three beaches one with a coral reef, and the abundance of tennis courts. The restaurants were very good, our room, which was a Junior suite, was very nice and the staff was excellent.

Pueblo Bonito Emerald Bay: Comfortable and Relaxing Resort

Stayed at Pueblo Bonito Emerald Bay in Mazatlan. In summary: * clean and spacious room (junior oceanview) * good selection and quality food * nice and spacious pools * friendly staff * quiet and safe resort * good shuttle system to "sister" facility: Pueblo Bonita Mazatlan * aging facility starting to show its age * NO coffee or beverages in room / refrigerator * windy beach not recommended for swimming due to undertow and jellyfish

Barcelo Maya Colonial: Great Holiday

Overall an excellent place to stay. Service was great, food was good (not great, but good), pools we fantastic, beach was was good, lots of activities to do if you wanted, and the staff were very accommodating.

Bahia Principe Explore Coba: Restful, relaxing vacation... just what I needed!

I can't say enough about this resort! The staff were helpful and courteous at all times. We were always greeted with smile. The grounds were lovely and well kept and the rooms were clean and well maintained.

Las Brisas Huatulco: Las Brisas Huatulco

I thought the weather was impeccable, the 3 beaches (snorking,family & sport beach) were fantastic. The room were OK. The dining in the special restaurants were much better than the buffet restaurant. I thought the activity around the pool was a 4 on a scale of 10, also the entertainment at night was a 2 on a scale of 10. If your not in for walking, this is not the place to be, as there is a abundance of stairs and walking to get from one place to another.

Sandos Caracol Nature Resort and Water Park: Amazing resort for any type of group!

We absolutely loved the resort, exceeded our expectations. The food was amazing other than the Brazlian Restaurant. Grounds were clean and well lit at night. Several pools to choose from including the children's water park. All in all a great family vacation.

Allegro Cozumel: Mixed Feelings for my stay at the Allegro

It has declined somewhat since the time we were there 5 years ago. Certain foods were not available or they constantly ran out of. ie Bacon, nacho chips etc. Cold food as no pasta station or hot entres some days - everything was under heat lamps. Way too crowded with Line-ups for food and drinks constantly. Had people log-in and staff filled out reviews in trip advisor. "all excellent" and then gave patrons free internent for the week Very deceiving.

Occidental at Xcaret Destination: Great resort!

Beautiful resort! Food, service and grounds were all great. Very clean! The beach isn't the greatest as it is man-made but good for families. We spent most the time in the pools which were kept very clean. More of a family and couple resort. Would go back!

Pueblo Bonito Pacifica Golf and Spa: Amazing resort!

The Pueblo Bonito Pacifica resort really exceeded my expectation in almost every way, from cleanliness, services, food quality, and spaciousness etc......the fact that we can use the common area and food facilities of the other three sister resorts also add color to our 5 starred treatment!
