Hotel's Favorite
My husband and I stayed at this resort for a week for our 20th anniversary and we were completely blown away by all of it. The service was outstanding, the food was delicious and the resort was super clean. There were plenty of activities you could enjoy or be a part of. All of the shows were amazing. We were a little nervous going due to the Covid situation but once we got there we felt safe and were able to relax. All of the staff wore masks the entire time in 90 degree heat to make sure the guests felt safe, which is no easy thing to do. We appreciate all of your hard work in ensuring our vacation was top notch. Thank you to all the employees of the resort from bartenders, waiters, chefs, entertainment people, cleaners, pool guys, concierge and everyone else who makes The Excellence Riviera Maya excellent. 😊 The only downside which was no fault of the resort was the seaweed. They absolutely did their best to clean it each and everyday. It was a bit stinky at times though. We were able to get a covid test at the resort to return to the US. It was handled beautifully with no issues at all. I would certainly recommend this resort. We have been to Mexico 3 times and this resort has exceeded our expectations making it our top choice.…

Great resort that checks off most of the boxes for us. The staff is the strength of the resort. The rooms are excellent and the pools are varied and numerous. The food was good and the restaurant service was outstanding, especially the French , Basmatti and the Grill. The wait staff at the Lobster house and Kitchen table were also very good. The only downfall was the beach water being extremely murky - not the resort’s fault— they do a fantastic job of cleaning it daily but the neighbouring resorts made poor attempts of clearing their beachfronts. This often left a odorous smell around the north end of the beachfront. I would highly recommend this resort to people who’s priority is not a favourable beach experience. The rest is excellent..

We stayed at ERC from 10-17 September. This was our 6th trip to an Excellence property and our first to ERC. The good: The staff was as great as we've come to expect from Excellence. They consistently go above and beyond expectations. We left wishing we could add another three days to our stay. We stayed at ERC from 10-17 September. This was our 6th trip to an Excellence property and our first to ERC. The good: The staff was as great as we've come to expect from Excellence. They consistently go above and beyond expectations. We left wishing we could add another three days to our stay. The room was beautiful! We stayed in an Excellence Club Rooftop w/ Plunge Pool. The transfer service by Season's Tours was flawless and comfortable. The bad: The food was REALLY hit and miss. My wife said her favorite meal was the breakfast buffet. It's setting the bar pretty low when a buffet is her best meal. We ate steak three times over the week because the other restaurants were of low quality. This was the biggest disappointment of the experience, especially since other Excellence resorts had done so much better. The plunge pool had plenty of sand in it when we checked in, and still had plenty of sand in it after they cleaned it. Excellence has recently relaxed their dress standards at restaurants, and some people are taking advantage of it quite a bit. More than one individual was wearing the same outfit they'd wear on the street corner of an inner city. I'm normally not a clothing person, but it seemed to drag the experience down from the higher tier of resort that Excellence had been previously. The noteworthy: The mattress was pretty firm, and the Excellence concierge was baffled by the concept of a mattress topper. After a couple of attempts over three days they got it handled. The beach had plenty of seaweed on it. To the resort's credit, they had a crew out there 8 hours a day, every day. They were able to stay on top of it for the most part, but it's more of an issue than at EPM and the smell from neighboring beaches was definitely there on some days. We had noticed that EPM was attracting a younger crowd, so we came to ERC in search of a more serene experience. ERC fit the bill in that department. Bottom line: we won't be back to ERC, and we're looking for other resort chains.…

Amazing resort. Amazing staff. My parents have been traveling to the resort many times now. And every time it is amazing. The service is outstanding. Big thank you to Matilde. Matilde J made our smoothies every day and they were delicious. We cannot wait to be back to relax and enjoy this stunning resort. The people that work here are so kind and very hard working.

This was our 8th trip to ERC! Seasons transfers picked us up at airport and our journey began. Once arrived we were greeted with cool towels and champagne! Behind the double doors, paradise awaited. Check-in was smooth and quick. The resort is beautiful and not so big which to us is a big plus. All rooms, pools, restaurants, entertainment, and beach are all close by. Whether you stay in Excellence Club or a regular room, you are treated like royality. NEVER have there been such happy people everywhere you turn. Breakfast at the Kitchen Table is buffet and has everything you would want. Always greeted by name with Inocencia's smiling face and welcome. There are 10 restaurants and something delicious waiting on you! Neri at the Lobster House was fantastic, as was the food. Fernando was our waiter at Oregano and was terrific. Alfredo at the Martini Bar keep us hydrated!!!! Our favorite restaurant was Chez and Ruben was our waiter and absolutely the BEST! We loved the nightly entertainment and loved the piano player in the Martini Bar. Armarble worked around the Club and was there when we first visited in 2005! Love seeing her still there each time we visit. We have vacationed for 20 years in Cancun, DR, and Jamaica, but will only come back to ERC...why look any further when all our boxes are checked here!…

We just returned from our 10th stay at Excellence Riviera Cancun. We experienced the same level of service that keeps us coming back. Jose, at the Excellence Club pool, took wonderful care of us. He would check in throughout the day to insure we had everything we needed/wanted. Lucia, at the Club pool, always kept the drinks flowing. We met her on a previous trip and we were looking forward to seeing her again. The food was excellent and the service was incredible! Of course, listening to Claudia sing on Monday evening was awesome! We look forward to our next visit!
