Mexico Hotels

Bahia Principe Hotel, Tulum

Advantages: Just an awesome place to stay!
Disadvantages: Although the complex has everything, the nearest town is 20mins away.

I stayed in this hotel last year! We actually stayed in the Tulum Hotel which is one of the 3 hotels connected to the complex. It was fantastic. From the moment we arrived and were given a champange cocktail things looked good. The food was all inclusive and of the highest standard, various other restaurants and snack bars were also available until midnight 7 days a week. The Tulum sits on the beach, which has windsurfing and scuba diving available ...

Review of Bahia Principe Hotel, Akumal

Moon Palace - all inclusive luxury

Advantages: An away from it all oasis - that will cater for your every need
Disadvantages: Isolated from main resort

The scale of the Moon Palace is hard to comprehend - we arrived at night and after check in we meandered our way through to our room - it seemed a long way. The walkways to the rooms are covered and uncovered - however the covered ones are laid out in such a way that it is possible to get all the way back to your room without getting wet should it rain. We went in the June and it was prone to the odd shower but then immediately warmed agained. The ...
...are gound, 1st and 2nd floor, so lots of ground floor rooms. The rooms are fabulous - a large queen sized bed, a large jacquzi bath at the end of the bed seating area, TV, large bathroom with a very large shower with a seat in it. And all the usual facilities you expect in a hotel of this stature. The doors are not air tight so if you don't have the air conditioning on at night you might find a few friends in the room with you by morning - we were ...

Review of Moon Palace Golf & Spa Resort, Cancun

An Oasis in the middle of Mexico

Advantages: The price, location, staff, food
Disadvantages: damp rooms

...for our first night in oasis viva beach. Okay so the room on the second floor was not good, not only did it have a crappy view of a palm tree it stank of damp, the room itself wasn’t bad, it had 2 double beds, a nice wee balcony with table and chairs, plenty of clothes storage, air conditioning and a TV, there were no tea and coffee making facilities but when it comes to all inclusive this is really not required….the bathroom however was a bit manky ...
...to stay in the grand oasis viva beach you get a different coloured wrist band which is black and this means you get a few more extra perks which include a mini fridge in your room in which all contents are free and updated daily, room service from a limited menu, access to a VIP bar (which always looked empty mind) and also free dining in the steak restaurant…..but as we were only here for one night we didn’t make use of any of these things. One ...

Review of Oasis Viva Beach, Cancun

Mexico's Party Paradise Hotel!

Advantages: Great hotel, service and location
Disadvantages: Some people can be quite loud

Paradise in Mexico! The Riu Cancun is an amazing hotel, the location is great, the service is great & the people/staff are great. ------------ Location ------------ The Riu Cancun is in Cancun, Mexico. It is situated about 20 minutes from Cancun Airport. This is great as transfers are easy and not too long, especially after a 10 and a half hour flight. The airport is a reasonable size and very modern. The Riu Cancun is located in the heart of ...
...too close that all you can hear is constant music/noise/drunks from the hotel. The main club/bar strip is only a 5 minute walk from the front door of the Riu. ---------------- The Resort ---------------- Cancun is known for its party atmosphere, spring break and that general 18-30's atmosphere. If this is what you think, you are completely wrong. Although Cancun has great nightlife it also has a quieter side to it. The clubs mostly cost an all ...

Review of Riu Cancun, Cancun

Amazingly Average

Advantages: Central location
Disadvantages: Very basic

...stay in a cheap, central hotel the first night, and a less-central, resort style hotel the second. This was my first hotel and it met the criteria immediately since it was located overlooking the central square, and cost £26 including taxes, which seemed reasonable for a private, ensuite room. I found the hotel easily enough, having asked the taxi driver to drop me at the central plaza. The square is large and has the cathedral at one side, government ...
...The hotel was indeed on this square, but tucked away slightly in one corner, making it quieter for those lucky people whose windows faced this way. As I was soon to discover, I was not one of those people. I had arrived early so asked if I could drop off my small rucksack as I went to find lunch. The woman seemed confused by this and had to go and check. I think perhaps because she didn't understand that I was to be a guest at the hotel that night. ...
