  • Best resort we ever …
    Best resort we ever stayed at. We like it so much we are going back in February. Royal Golden is worth it. Akumal and Tulum are the best two, but Coba was still new when we were there. Will check out the Coba section when we arrive. Loved the separate concierge and decent internet. Food was also great and it really is a 5 star. Staff are very professional. Video is very accurate and realistic, but the real thing is even better.

  • You need to respect …
    You need to respect nature, you don’t need AC when you have this beautiful, awesome experience…

  • Too many mosquitoes …
    Too many mosquitoes! The bars and restaurants do not have AC. The snorkeling right off the beach is great! The mini-club for kids was not that good, our 7 year old liked the kid’s club at Barcelos better.

  • this place really …
    this place really sucks compared to other hotels. everything is afr away, like the bar and the club. also, they do not know how to use the AC when it is soo hot. Not organized. there are way better places to stay at, like the barcelo.

  • I stayed there in …
    I stayed there in Akumal! We got a whole Coach bus to ourselves; it only took an hour to get there from Cancun. It was amazing!!! One word describes it: Indescribable!!! I recommend doing a tour, also. We did the snorkeling tour. We went to the ocean inlet, an open cenote, and a closed cenote. It was miraculous! I loved the Mikado restaurant and the Arlequin one.

    of course its rocky retard…its called HURRICANES!..they destroyed the coral, coral breaks off….goes to beach…

    One thing I would recommend bringing is water shoes because when you go in the water, the surface underneath is rocky.

  • My hubby and I were …
    My hubby and I were there just recently. LOVED the resort. The ride the from the airport is long but worth it like everyone says. We stayed at 7413. The resort is huge! But not to worry the shuttle buses function til 3am. I highly recommend anyone to go to this resort. The hotel grounds were VERY CLEAN!!! I dont see anything wrong except 7 days don’t seem enough at all!!! Aside from that, we were happy!

  • The only thing that …
    The only thing that was different is that u get waited on. Also the last thing to complain on is the journey from cancun aiport and the hotel. But that didnt ruin my holiday at all i supose its on 2 every 2 weeks. I could go on but i think im boring u , am i …?

    Heyah, i stayed in akumal in a junior suite villa 52 and the room number 5214 ! leave a comment if u have stayed in that one to. i just got home from gatwick this morning. i was well sad i didnt wanna go home. Evertythinh was fab about the whole complex! And also the different animals that came round each day, Jackson Show and The buffet. The only thing i didnt like was the elcart’e resrontes u had to book and be there for a certain time and the food wasnt that special .. ( carrying on )

    I went there in 2005, and im going again in 7 days cant wait..

    Glad you had such a great time there. I wish I could take everyone I knew to that place! Once you’ve been there it’s in your heart for life. I definitely recommend going to Chichen Itza and Xel Ha. I even miss the local birds.

  • yeh it is two hours …
    yeh it is two hours. lol n yeah it was worth the ride. lol

  • Don’t depend on …
    Don’t depend on your bank card. They couldn’t take mine, I had to use Visa at the shop. Bring Pesos and ask for the price in Pesos, it’s cheaper than dollars in most outlaying shops. The prices at the resort are the best you’ll get anywhere. Don’t waist your time shopping in Playa del Carmen (we were told). Great visit! Chinchen Itza is magical and Tulum is marvelous. We recommend both. Cheers!

  • Thank you for the …
    Thank you for the commentary! It is all true, our bus was two hours but the resort is closer to the ruins. We could sleep in until 8:30 before the bus came.
