Melia Casa Maya: First Time in Cancun - Amazing Experience
Melia Casa Maya is an excellent hotel. It's medium sized and appears to cater to families with kids and older adults. There are lots of activities and amenities but it's quiet at night. Our room was spectacular. We upgraded to their premium lodging called "The Level". This includes lots of extra perks. The resort staff were super friendly and accommodating.

Riu Latino: Great Resort
First time staying at a Riu resort and it was excellent! Food at the buffet and the restaurants was above par. Cleanliness of the resort was incredible. Special thank you to Alexis, one of the servers at the morning and afternoon buffet. He was always so smiley and helpful. Great mixture of quiet places and party places for everyone. Only change would possibly be a large “no smoking” area on the beach.

Riu Latino: A definite "will go there again" resort
I'll keep it point form:
SERVICE & STAFF: Friendly, helpful, and happy to serve.
FACILITIES: Exceptionally clean, spacious room with comfortable bed, Ocean View really means Ocean View. Mini bar and coffee in room well stocked regularly.
WASHROOMS: Uncannily clean - it was almost weird. Have never experienced such detail to cleanliness. There aren't enough of them though and sometimes there are waits (especially, the women)
FOOD: One of the best resorts. Great a 'la cartes,[... read more] tasty and variety in the buffet
BARS: Well stocked. No high-end drinks but plenty of the regular vacation type drinks.
BEACH: A bit of a walk. No bar or washrooms at the beach. Definitely the best beach in the strip. Sargassum cleared and kept under control. Issue with smokers on the beach... no matter where we sat, we were always polluted by nearby smokers. Eventually we just stopped going the the beach as a result as we couldn't enjoy it.
POOLS: A pool environment for every taste; from Party to Quiet and everything in between.
WATER SLIDE: Great fun! A nice feature.
ENTERTAINMENT: Pretty normal. Nothing spectacular but nothing terrible.

Occidental Tucancun: Not bad hotel
It’s a small hotel with limited restaurants. If u are going on a low budget. It’s a good option.The check in was hectic and limited options on restaurants for dinner. No balconies on ocean view rooms.

Ocean Allure Costa Mujeres: 7 days all inclusive vacations
The resort lacks entertainment at night after dinner this place is dead only 3 shows during our stay,
When you pay for a 7 days all inclusive vacations this term of 7 days, is not correct,
On the last day we were told my AirTransat staff to be at the Lobby by 6:00 am to check out to be picked up at 6:30 am, so how much do you enjoy your last day when you have to leave that early.
The original departure time was at 7:35 pm so what changed?

Haven Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa: Awesome October Vacation
The staff at the Haven were amazing. The facilities were top notch and the food was excellent. There was no shortage of offers for help or beverages and we were overwhelmed with the friendliness of the wait staff and bar workers. We would not hesitate to go back again. The swim up room was wicked and catered just like pool side. Five star review from us. Thanks to all at the resort.

Occidental Tucancun: Awesome Firsr time at Occidental Tucancun Resort
Right from day one while waiting in a long line to check in the Staff showed their expertise is customer service! Javier saw we were tired and brought us cold beer, He then got Jose who ushered us into a premium lounge to cool down and check in! From there it just kept getting better! Our rooms were perfect with huge bathrooms,beds and even a balcony! Food was excellent and non stop. Hotel was always being cleaned and in order. What made all the difference was the following staff! Laura Pat, Rog[... read more]elio Jimenez, Enrique these three were the best bar team ever kept everyone so happy. Laura often worked with dienna i think her name was but often woth another named Yoselin who was amazing wherever she worked.loved her at the top side and adult pool. The other bartenders and staff were also outstanding but the ones I mentioned make me want to return just to have fun with them! They went the extra mile always. Now we did have some minor issues but Jose was quick to get those addressed and the supporting management was on the ball to make sure mistakes did not continue.
I have worked in hospitality my whole life and now im a retired chef who owns a small country restaurant so watching these people work so well together while I sat around and relaxed made my vacation exceptional...lol I wanted to work with them ....almost .I look forward to the prestine beach, service and camaraderie next year!

Seadust Cancun Beach Resort: Wish i did the research and reviews before we booked.
Checkin and checkout was fast. the bell hop was very nice and helpful. The pools are nice and the beach is really nice if seaweed doesn't bother you. The pictures of the rooms on the internet looks amazing. Reality, the room is clean but, dated and had to have the chairs replaced because, what was there was very dirty. cracks in the floor and bathroom tiles. The second night we had to change room, we were under the speakers of the lounge were the DJ played, very loud. 302, was moved to 502 a l[... read more]ot better. Food at the main buffet,Mexican, Japanese and the Italian resturants was good. All the others,the food and service was awful. They cater more to the Mexicans and White people. Which, I found very disappointing. My family was feeling invisible at times except,the white ones in my family. If you can't treat all people the same, then that's a big problem.

Riu Palace Costa Mujeres: Amazing Experience minus the "double beds"
The resort was amazing, food, entertainment, pools and amenities were phenomenal. The staff was great and very helpful. I have no complaints other than the double bed sizes for the family rooms. They are European doubles and you can hardly fit two people in a bed. They need to be using queens so people can fit comfortably without risk of falling off the bed while turning over. Rooms should not be classified as for families with this bed size. Regardless of the pull out bed.

Royalton CHIC Cancun: Ok Resort
Hotel rooms are great, nice views - beach (minus the little sargasm). Staff were very helpful and supportive all through the resort. Entertainment is alittle lacking compared to other resorts- Even the rooftop was underwhelming opened once with no one in attendance. The food was not that great compared to other resorts I have been to - they can do better.

Secrets Mirabel Cancun Resort and Spa: Beautiful Resort!
The grounds were beautiful! The Staff amazing and the food was delicious. My spa session was the best! The pool was clean and the attendants so kind and helpful. The front desk was helpful. And entertainment was great. As part of the spa you come an hour before your session. You have an attendant with you all the time. There are so many therapeutic pools a sauna and a steam room.

Planet Hollywood Cancun by Royalton: Not what I expected
I first want to start off with the staff who was absolutely fabulous. It didn’t matter who we were in contact with, they were absolutely amazing. The food was not as expected for a 5 star resort. I enjoyed Gustos, Braza and the Sushi Restaurants. The menu was on repeat too often as well. I don’t like the design of the buildings and they were run down in many areas. Great selection of pools and the beach was nice.

TRS Coral: Ok Resort, not 5 star experience
The hotel has a lot of issues with details that do not make it feel like a luxury 5 star experience. Butler services is hit or miss, hotel app for booking meals, seeing programming for the day etc, is not accurate, does not work properly and basically becomes useless and the information is not accurate. I would not go this hotel again and would not recommend to anyone expecting 5 star service.

Royal Solaris Cancun: Great stay!
This was my second time at the Royal Solaris and I really enjoyed my stay both times. The hotel is not far from the airport and Cancun downtown. Very clean with the great room service. The staff is friendly and were entertaining guests daily at the pool. Food is good, maybe less variety than in RIU resorts, but you have chicken, beef, fish. Pastries are amazing. I would recommend to the couples with or without kids. I’m definitely going back

NYX Hotel Cancun: Hotel Nyx is a charming little gem
It took us weeks of careful research before deciding to book our first family all-inclusive vacation in Mexico at Hotel Nyx Cancun, but it turned out to be the best vacation we had in a very long time !
Not too far from the airport and within walking distance to La Isla shopping center, Nyx is a winning ticket for tourists (like us) who enjoy a quaint smaller hotel with an amazing staff, delicious food and a generous sized beach.
The Mediterranean-like architecture and hotel grounds are ve[... read more]ry clean, well kept and its walking alleys are complemented by beautiful tropical plants. After sundown, the discrete lighting brings them all together in a magical way.
Honorio ( Jojo) was more than just the first friendly and polite staff to welcome us to Nyx and guide us to our rooms, but always ready to offer an advice or an unbiased recommendation.
A little mix-up with our deluxe rooms on our arrival was promptly corrected the next morning at Reception by David and Meike who went above and beyond to ensure our satisfaction was guaranteed.
The deluxe rooms assigned to us initially were in tower 1 and tower 6. While both were modernized, the room in tower 1 was so small that the king size bed almost filled the whole room and facing the lagoon made it almost impossible to sleep due to the constant traffic noise on the Kukulkan Ave.
The next morning we have moved to other rooms in the main tower which were still very clean, with comfortable beds, significantly more spacious and quieter, but lacking much needed updates. The complimentary champagne bottle was a nice touch and it was well received !
The house keeping did an amazing job, refreshing our rooms every day and refilling the fridges with water, soft drinks and beer.
One of the fridges had a malfunction at some point, but the dispatched maintenance tech showed up promptly and resolved it on the spot despite being almost 10PM.
The quite elegant Balam restaurant from the lobby serves amazing breakfast and dinner, while the beach restaurant will fulfill your lunch needs. Both serve a good variety of delicious choices and even the pickiest eater will have its taste buds tickled.
Our compliments to the Chef and the kitchen staff for the delicious and rich selection of dishes, deserts and pastries which totally dismantled the all-inclusive buffet stigma as being cheap, boring and repetitive.
Hugo and Gerardo made our meals even more enjoyable with their great service, while Jose JJ and Jhohn kept us well “hydrated” with masterfully crafted drinks at both the lobby bar and the pool bar.
Daniel put quite a show while preparing our tasty Teppanyaki dinner at the Japanese Umami restaurant one evening, but Chianti Italian restaurant on our last night did not impress at all and made us regret missing out on what culinary wonders the buffet dinner had to offer.
For those interested in expanding their taste experience with some gourmet out-of-this-world tacos, the Tacos Villanos is conveniently located just outside the Nyx entrance ramp. It only took the 4 of us about $100 to get hooked on their tacos and to set our bar so high now that we cannot even enjoy other tacos anymore ;)
The beach is beautiful and there was no shortage of sun beds with or without shade. Being the top of the season for sargassum, the beach was cleaned every morning and only a small amount of the sea weed was present.
We were impressed to learn one morning that the life guard was not there just to protect us humans, but he also promptly came to rescue about a dozen baby leatherback turtles that got tangled in the seaweed accumulated overnight on the edge of the beach. A couple of Nyx employees were radioed in and quickly showed up with a proper crate to take the hatchlings to a safe place until their proper release the following night.
The swimming pool was nice and clean and it seemed to be quite enjoyable with lots of engaging activities during the day, but cannot comment more as we always prefer the beach and swim in the ocean.
The lobby was comfortable and as spotless clean as the rest of the hotel and it offered a cool refuge from the unforgiving August heat during the noon-ish hours. Two big screen TV’s will let you watch your preferred sport or you can show your skills at the pool table for 10 pesos per game. The designated smoking area is just outside the double sliding doors as you pass the pool table.
The day wouldn’t have been complete without the nice evening entertainment mix of music genres, various talented local artists, DJ and even a karaoke night, all the way to 11pm.
Should you have an early morning departure on a tour or back to the airport (like we had), please inform in advance the friendly reception staff and you’ll be pleasantly surprised to find a nice lunch box prepared for you.
On the second morning of our stay, we had the pleasure to meet Jacobo, the Air Canada Vacations rep which was very friendly, yet professional, and he provided us with all the essential information we needed. He quickly gained our confidence and without any pressure or sales pitches, we decided to book a day-long tour to the one of the 7 wonders of the world: Chichen Itza.
It turned out to be a wonderful unique experience and the best tour we ever had. Do yourselves a favour and if you do decide to book this tour, ask for PATTY13, the tour operator that has Jose and Patricia as your guides.
Jose was our super talented guide (for the English speaking group) and besides the awe inspiring objectives visited, he was the star of the trip, keeping all of us entertained with his hilarious style but also fascinated by a blend of stories and historical facts.
A quick note: should you decide to bring your passport on this tour, you’ll have the opportunity of having it stamped with a special mark depicting the temple of Chichen Itza that proves you have visited one of the Seven Wonders of the World.
I do realize it is a very long review, but writing just a simple phrase wouldn’t do justice and would also be unfair to ALL the friendly, polite and hard working staff that have contributed to an enjoyable and quite memorable week-long stay at Nyx Cancun.
A big Thank You to all and we can’t wait to return here on our next vacation !
