I have just returned from an amazing two week stay. The place was great and yes because of the swine flu many living areas had only just opened so our room smelt a little musty at first,but I left the door open and it aired out. The food was great at the beach bar where I mostly ate , the... more

Xcaret is located in the heart of the jungle and it is a pleasure to hear the animals as you follow the footpaths through the jungle on your way to the beach. The beach, however, is a bit disappointing. It is an artificial, small inlet which is also fed by a small river making the water much colder than in... more

As we checked in, we asked if we could have king size bed, however were told there was no rooms with a... more

A year and a half after my stay and I'm still seeing red - I had to counter some of the glowing reviews that this place is getting. I spend a lot of time researching before vacationing and I thought I was in for a small piece of heaven. Granted, the grounds are beautiful and the pools are great. That's... more

We stayed here in Oct 09 with 24 members of our family. The staff were very friendly. We did not get hassled for time share at all. The entertainment staff were brilliant with yoga, salsa dancing, archery, air rifle shooting and many games available during the day. They also put on fabulous shows at night. Hugo was really good. We... more

On arrival we were informed by a very rude man who claimed to be the manager that only the 2 adults were paid for by A.E.... more

We were there with a group and I must say that our experiences were not quite as bad as the other parties that went. I would definately say that the view and the beach areas are in deed one of the more beautiful that I have seen however.... It was impossible to get dinner reservations, you are allowed to book... more
