Rosewood Mayakoba

Playa del Carmen

10/10 Excellent

When the only complaint you can have about a place is that they are almost TOO attentive, then you are really staying at a true 5 star place. Everything here is first class and it is truly a very different experience from the typical Playa all inclusive places. First off, the grounds are beautiful. We stayed in a lagoon suite and to sit out on the deck and hear a myriad of birds singing and watch fish, turtles, (and crocs!) swim by was really a great experience. Almost feels like being...

Palmaïa-The House of AïA: All Inclusive Wellness Resort

Playacar

10/10 Excellent

This property continues to hit way above it's benchmark, at least in terms of the deal I found. Service, accommodations, amenities, food, the entire experience is superb. Out of 5 stars, though, I'd deduct 1/2 star for the unhappy increase in the club or lounge music around the property. The 2-3 hour daily set at the bar is tolerable, especially if your room is removed from that area. The music at the general restaurant on the other hand has gotten louder, and installing the DJ every other...

Secrets Maroma Beach Riviera Cancun - Adults Only - All inclusive

Maroma

10/10 Excellent

We stayed at Secrets Maroma for 7 nights and to say we had a great time is an understatement! We did stay in the Perferred Club Junior Suite Ocean View, building 16, and the view of resort and ocean was great! From the moment we arrived and until we departed, the service is outstanding throughout the resort-from the wait staff, bar tenders, front desk, and especially our conceirge-Emmanuel! Emmanuel was excellent- and took care of all our needs when needed! The food at all restaurants was...

10/10 Excellent

The property has a truly exceptional staff. From the moment you arrive, you receive a warm and welcoming experience, especially from the concierge team assigned to your room. We had the pleasure of having Alan and Ana assist us during our stay, and they were extremely helpful, polite, and attentive. We traveled with our two children, and the entire staff went above and beyond to make them feel comfortable and welcome. They gave our kids the attention and assistance they needed and made sure...

10/10 Excellent

Technically this wasn't a vacation, it was our honeymoon. I found this place on some Google list of top 10 most romantic honeymoon spots and it did not dissapoint. The grounds are beautiful. The staffs mission in life is to make sure you are happy and have everything you need. And it's not just for tips either, it's genuine. Whether you want to do nothing or everything, you will be pleased. We just got back and are already planning a return trip. The rooms are VERY private, no noise from other...

The Riviera Maya EDITION At Kanai

10/10 Excellent

My wife, & I stay at The Edition Riviera Maya this past weekend for her birthday. The property was gorgeous, although the weather wasn’t. Unfortunately, it’s still the end of the hurricane season in Mexico. Thank God, we did get some sunshine though. The place is gorgeous! Every single person was warm, & kind to us. The prices for food, & drinks were expensive, be prepared! I believe they also said that they were holding $450 a night on my credit card, which I thought was unusually high, but I...

Playa del Carmen

10/10 Excellent

We were looking for a small non-resort hotel on the beach where we could relax peacefully, and Petit Lafitte is exactly that. As soon as we arrived at Lafitte we were welcomed home by the desk staff and concierge. Everyone at the hotel was friendly and made us feel comfortable, and were more than willing to help make our stay a very pleasant one. The beach is about 20 steps from the outdoor bar, with a number of chairs and thatch umbrellas for use by guests, and the pool was a comfortable...

Hotel Lunata - Near Playa del Carmen Main Beach

Downtown Playa del Carmen

10/10 Excellent

Hotel Lunata is a gem situated on Playa del Carmen's charming 5th Avenue, and one block from Playa's main beach. Even though our room overlooked 5th Avenue, the triple-insulated balcony doors assured peace and quiet. The hotel is reminiscent of a hacienda, and has a lovely private - and very quiet - garden. The complimentary continental breakfast was tasty, with fresh fruit and Mexican pastries along with cereals, coffee, and fresh-squeezed orange juice. Perhaps the best attribute of the...

Valentin Imperial Rivera Maya All Inclusive - Adults Only

Playa del Carmen

10/10 Excellent

This property is fantastic if your desire is to go to a laid back property and have a relaxing but fun time. It is not packed with party hungry 18 year olds. We noticed the guests were mostly couples and friend trips made up of ladies or couples. While they say tips are not expected, they really are. For the price of flights and the say along with the amazing food options on property, throw your server or housekeeping staff a few USD. Be careful when it comes to converting dollars to pesos - pay...

Mvngata Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

This hotel is beautiful! Beds are comfortable and the rooms, views, and roof top pool are extraordinary. I loved the feel of the property and it provides a very personalized experience. I traveled alone from Seattle and even though I was alone (my bf broke up with me three days before this trip we were supposed to be on together), but I had the whole team at Mvngata (pronounced moon-gata) to help me heal from a devastating breakup. They loved on me and made me feel safe and full of joy. This...

El Dorado Maroma, All & More Inclusive - Adults Only

Maroma

10/10 Excellent

This is a great, little resort. The beach is, in my opinion, is one of the best in the area. It is white and powdery. The staff rakes it each morning so there are no rocks or debris. There could be more beach chairs, but the staff work very hard to assure that you get a chair. My room was perfectly located within walking distance to the beach. I had a room directly above Rick’s bar and the adjoining pool, but never felt it was too loud. The staff are all very hard working and welcoming. The...
