Top Cancun Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Palace Las Americas - Adults Only- All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"The best"

Temptation Cancun Resort All Inclusive - Adults Only

10/10 Excellent

"This resort is fantastic! Not only is it clean, it’s so much fun. The entire staff - from start to finish - were top notch. It doesn’t matter if you pass a housekeeper in the hallway, talk with the folks at the front desk, chat with your bartender, or just pass someone along the way, the entire staff is so friendly. A huge shoutout to SERGIO and ANDREA at the front desk! They were and are INCREDIBLE people and have excellent customer service care. Another shoutout to all of the daytime pool bartenders and nighttime bartenders when the shows are going on. Playmakers: y’all are a lot of fun; thanks for keeping the party going (as well as the nighttime performers). Hands down, a great experience. If you want something fun, stay here!"

Haven Riviera Cancun - All Inclusive - Adults Only

8/10 Good

"My stay at the resort had both pros and cons. One major advantage is that all pools are open 24 hours. Even without a swim-up suite, you can enjoy the pools late at night. The lobby bar is open until 6:00 a.m., making it a great place to have drinks and meet new people. Guests can use all amenities immediately after check-in, and the concierge staff was friendly and helpful with dinner reservations. The Friday Mexican Fiesta, beginning at 6:00 p.m., was one of the best Mexican shows I have seen. Room service is also available 24 hours, which is convenient if you prefer to stay in your room. Unfortunately, there was no entertainment after 11:00 p.m. At that point, your only choices were to return to your room or leave the resort. The seaweed was also a major disappointment. The smell was overwhelming as soon as I stepped outside my room, and the beach was not cleaned enough for guests to enjoy it. I was unable to visit the beach during my entire week-long stay. I would rate the food 7/10. After 6:00 p.m., you must reserve a restaurant because there is no dinner buffet. Without a reservation, room service is your only option. Overall, the staff was friendly, but the seaweed, limited dinner options, and lack of late-night entertainment affected my experience. If you are looking to relax by the pools for a few days, this is the place"
