We have just returned from our stay at the Grand Velas , and have not stopped thinking about how incredible our stay there was. The moment we stepped out of our transportation we were greeted with a cold towel and a warm smile. Our Room Ambassador Class - had all the amenities you could ask for. Large though not technically... more

One of the best hotels we have ever stayed at. From the rooms to the service to the food. If one thing is lacking, it would be the nightlife. On a 7 day trip, you start to get a bit bored at night and have to go into Playa at night. It would be nice if the resort had some... more

We just got back last night and I wanted to add to the great comments regarding Grand Velas: Our concierge (Karla) was fantastic; she surprised us our last night with a "romantic" set up in our room- drawn bubble bath, rose petals, champagne, chocolate....awesome! The overall service is beyond un-real...we have stayed at the Four Seasons and Ritz Carlton properties... more

My wife and I just returned from a 4 day stay at the Grand Velas. We had read the glowing reviews on Trip Advisor and truthfully, we didn't believe that the place could live up to the hype. After returning, I can only say that the reviews are absolutely on target. The place is absolutely beautiful. We stayed in an... more

We just returned from staying at the Grand Velas for 5 nights with our young son and another family. This place is amazing. We moved from another all inclusive hotel, which was awful to the Grand Velas and were shocked at the difference in quality and service. This hotel is beautiful, we stayed in an ambassador class suite with ocean... more

This is a mind blowing place to stay. I live in the UK and travelled to Cancun to visit my sister who had booked 3 nights in this hotel for us for a bit of relaxation and rest. We arrived after travelling short distance from cancun (about 1 hour) and from the moment we stepped foot in the hotel all... more

We have been to many all-inclusive resorts in Mexico and the Caribbean, and many were wonderful with some reservations. We have also been to exclusive resorts like Parrot Cay and Jade Mountain and Cap Juluca and compare the level of service at every resort to what we experienced at the Four Seasons on the Big Island of Hawaii. The Grand... more

My husband and I share a dream of finding a place to vacation that is “perfect” for us. Our dream is of a luxurious beautiful resort with high quality accommodations, fine dining, professional service, and friendly staff. After staying at the Grand Velas for 10 nights we have found “our” place. Simply put, everything at the Grand Velas is of... more

In a nutshell, the hotel is beautiful, the staff is great, food is wonderful, rooms great! There just weren't enough things to do for kids. And, because there were so many Spanish speaking families there, my daughter was not able to communicate with the other kids. We should have done a better job teaching her Spanish!! However, it is an... more
