Ave price: $240
A beautiful hotel where there is great attention paid to detail. The Royal Service option is definitely worth the extra charge. Staff proved to be friendly and helpful. The food very good at Tempo, as well as the free fair in tower 5 everyday. Phillips Flatscreen TVs and comfortable beds in the tastefully furnished rooms. Large marble baths w/ sep toilet closet and bidet. Bath robes and slippers. Private pool for Royal Service tower with the deck covered by cabana size large palapas. The beach is goregous, with palapa umbellas and the Caribean crystal blue water. The water was a bit rough but quite enjoyable. The gift shops of this hotel were cheap compared to some markets near by. We would go back with the kids no doubt. Many hotels ajacent are still being rebuilt, not this one - you wouldn't know there was a Wilma.
2. Xcaret
Xcaret Eco Theme Park, Playa del Carmen
A trip I advise, don't miss it if you can spare the day. The dolphin swim experience is great for all. Beautiful and unique attractions and shows. Cave trail is a must.
3. The City
The City Discotheque, Cancun
No doubt the hottest club in Cancun. A wild ride with great DJ and large bar for dancing. Acrobatic shows pop out over the crowd.
4. Aquaworld
Aquaworld, Cancun
A couple of hours for a beautiful waverunner trip through park ( Punta Nizac) with snorkel. Nice morning trip left rest of day to lay around beach. Other combo trips were available.
