Luxury Bahia Principe Akumal - All Inclusive

5.0 Excellent beaches, modern and clean facilities.

There is about a mile of beach on this property, so there is plenty of room. Plenty of the palapias too. I'm a beach, not pool person, but the pools (there are several) are nice (although there are not enough chairs). The food is buffet style but there is always a good selection. You'll get something you don't like one in a while, but just go back and get something else. The grounds and common spaces are great, as is the room. My only "complaint" is that they either don't believe in using fabric softener for the towels or these things are made from sand paper.

Grand Bahia Principe Tulum - All Inclusive

5.0 Well maintained grounds, rooms, and beaches.

Great experience for a week. If you are a beach person (versus pool) then this is your best choice for a resort in the area. Too many resorts do not have enough beach area and/or palapas (beach huts). I think the total property (there are 4 resorts on the property) beach is probably a mile long and there are plenty of the palapas. Don't get me wrong they have pools, all of which are fine but I'm a beach person and that is why I return here over and over. And they work hard to keep the beach clean (lots of seaweed washes in every day). The resort staff keeps everything clean and neat. The grounds, rooms, and common areas are always great. The food is good for buffet style. If you get something you don't like, go back. The only comment on food is I would like more veggies. One example of great staff: The toilet in my room did not flush well. It was obvious that it was an old and very poor toilet. I went to the front desk after two days of calling for the plunger guy and asked to move to another room. The promised me they would take care of the problem the next day and they did. They actually replaced the toilet with one that flushed well. That's great service! And do NOT feed the animals. They are cute but should not be feed people food. If you must feed them, bring some clean (unsalted) nuts (I bring fresh pecans).

Grand Bahia Principe Coba - All Inclusive

5.0 Fun and Clean, Pictures are a little deceiving

We truly enjoyed our stay at Coba! Staff was personable and easy to communicate with. Room, food courts, lobby and bars were all clean and easy to navigate. We were most disappointed with the deceiving pictures on Travelocity of how close Coba is to the beach... I have stayed at Grand Bahia Principe Punta Cana and the pictures were on point. The pictures online for Coba were very inaccurate according to how far away the beach was. We were under the impression we would be able to walk to the beach from our hotel room through the hotel complex. Instead, we could not access the beach from Coba and we had to take a trolly every time to the beach on the Tulum complex, at least a 5-10 minute trolly that did not come for pick up as fast as the hotel said it would (every 10-15 minutes). Other than the beach being so far away, our stay was wonderful! Many food options, great service in restaurants and bars, lots of beach and pool lounge chairs, fun pool activities, room cleaned every day, cheap option for a safe upon arrival. All in all, very satisfied with our stay, but would definitely choose to stay with Grand Bahia Principe Tulum to be closer to the beach on our next stay.

3.0 Decent Vacation

This hotel was a couple hours away from the airport, not a pleasant ride after a long day at the airport. We got there and tried to check in, they found a typo on the reservation, so they charged me extra for one person accommodation. I fixed the problem when I got back but the staff were not understanding and they think your in Mexico, you have to pay no matter what. They tell you that they have 10 restaurants, that's wrong. there were only about a hand full that I saw and only a few were open. Its a good think we liked the buffet food. Also, you have to go to the front desk everyday and book a restaurant for dinner if you want to go the restaurants, that was weird to me. They also told us that if we lost our bracelets, its a 100 dollar charge, why?? Oh well. Crazy rules when your on vacation, you want to relax and not worry about all this. The best part of our stay was the beach, we spent a lot of time at the beach and went snorkeling right on the beach and they provided gear for free. I thought that was very nice. Also, nightly entertainment was nice, they had a show every night. don't expect to party here, its the relaxing hotel. They wont even play any music on the beach. I thought music was relaxing?? the Mexicans don't I guess. Overall, it was ok. I think that they can make the services a lot more accommodating. I did enjoy some of my stay at the grand oasis Tulum only because of the beach.

Villas De Rosa Beach Resort

5.0 Definitely recommend this hotel

This hotel is on one of the nicest beaches in the area. Rooms are clean, quiet with new a.c. and ceiling fans. They have private baths with hot showers and plenty of pressure. I was travelling solo and stayed in one of the rooms facing the pool. I got a view of the condos and they are literally on the beach where you can open your glass doors and feel the ocean breezes. The food they serve there is very good also. You cannot go wrong staying at this hotel: solo - a great base to explore the area. Family - condos with full amenities. Tony Jr, ran everything smoothly with a super friendly attitude. Noel, in the office, is a local with all the knowledge locals have. John welcomed me on arrival and checked me in. He is very nice also. It is family run. Only one recommendation is to get some "do not disturb" signs as there were a couple of times I did not need my bed made every day and just wanted to rest. Other than that, this is the place to go!
