Everything was excellent. Hospitality was top notch! Overall really clean , the spa was amazing as well. The beach was kept clean all the time as well.
The food is in another LEVEL. And not just at the restaurants. The poolside food is excellent, and everything is so fresh and beautifully prepared. The service is some of the best I’ve ever experienced. The grounds are immaculate. It’s the best hotel experience I’ve had in Mexico, by FAR.
Room was small for the price.
Restaurant food was good.
Pool/beach food was the best
Buffet food not so good.
Gym was tiny
Show were fantastic
Beach was awesome
Concierge grand class amenities,Worth the money! They will do anything in there power you ask.
Karaoke bar was dope.
Resort grounds are beautifully done.
Coffee shop sucked.
Kids club awesome. The littles always wanted to go back.
The service was outstanding. They kept the rooms and property very clean. Our concierge Izamar was amazing and took care of us and our needs in a very timely fashion. The food was delicious. We had great meals the whole time at the resort.
Beautiful property and excellent service. Food and drinks are amazing! This is the second time I stayed in this hotel and definitely I will come back. Highly recommend the spa if you want to pamper your self it was an Amazon experience.
Amazing service, great food. No tennis courts. Beach is ugly, they added a barrier to protect beach from hurricanes. If you are looking for turquoise ocean- not here.
Our favorite resort in the Cancun/Playa del Carmen area. It is indeed a five star hotel. The service is excellent, the rooms are great, the dining options are fantastic. The beach and pools are wonderful.
We had a wonderful family vacation at Grand Velas Riviera Maya. Excellent food (especially Cocina de Autor, Frida, and Piaf) and beautiful property. We highly recommend spending time at the Zen pool - a really magical, relaxing spot. The staff were all really wonderful, friendly, and helpful. All 3 of our kids - ranging from age 4 to age 14 - had a great time. We would certainly come back again!!
The property is spectacular; the pools are clean, the gardens are beautiful, and the rooms exceed your expectations. The beach had a lot of seaweed, but they made an effort to keep it clean and enjoyable.
I went to this resort for my son’s first birthday and it was exceptional. I chose the hotel because it was rated highly for its service geared towards babies and they exceeded my expectations.
The dinner & restaurant food is very good. Daytime & bar food is mediocre at best. Certainly NOT what you’d expect for the price point of the resort. The beach area is not good… pretty much stayed poolside all week not. Would not recommend this resort for the amount it costs.
World class at every level. The facility was incredible. Spotlessly clean everywhere. Grounds were perfectly manicured. Pools were immaculate. The restaurants were excellent. The food was very, very, very, high quality as were the cocktails (a lot of which were originals). We stayed in grand class and it was 100% worth it. The staff was the literal best and most attentive I’ve ever experienced at any resort in the world.
Nice and large resort with different views and themes for each section of the resort. The “jungle” building is actually nice too even it’s not beach front. It’s quite and very zen.
