Ocean Riviera Paradise All Inclusive

8/10 Good

"This resort was budget-friendly and decent for any family or group size! We had a destination wedding here for over 50 guests. There was plenty to do and enjoyable activities/pool for kids. Service at the pool by the beach was slow, maybe ordered drinks twice for 7 day stay. Also, service at the restaurants was slow. The property could use some renovations on hotel room decor, but that’s just my opinion. Our butler Adrian was awesome. Overall, fun resort with a lot to do."

Hyatt Vivid Playa Del Carmen - Adults Only - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Services, staff, and food were amazing! I’ll admit I was nervous after reading some of the other reviews before booking, but this hotel completely exceeded my expectations. The room was clean, modern, and comfortable. Every staff member we met was friendly and genuinely helpful. The food was delicious with great variety. Their gift shop was a pleasant surprise — much better quality and prices on souvenirs than outside vendors or the airport. Highly recommend buying there. Only downside: One staff member approached us about a “complimentary breakfast” offsite because we booked through Expedia. He promised a free cabana, beach dinner, or $200 credit afterward. My husband looked it up and it was a timeshare presentation. We declined. He later insisted we’d be charged for not showing up since we “reserved.” We didn’t go, and weren’t charged. Just be aware and say no firmly if you’re not interested. Overall, we loved our stay and would absolutely come back. Don’t let the timeshare pitch scare you off — the hotel itself is fantastic."

Paradisus La Perla - Adults Only - Riviera Maya - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"What makes this resort special is the amazing staff! Each of them are very special and make you feel pampered. The hotel surrounding are very beautiful and is very spacious. Location is also great! As is easy to take a taxi to go to Quinta Avenida"
