Top 10 V B Hotels

Our family recently stayed for one week at Rosewood Mayakoba. We went for Thanksgiving week and there were lots of festive theme dinners with delicious food and music. The service by the staff was exceptional- some of the best I have ever experienced in all my years of travelling. ( Including reception, concierge, waiters at restaurants, pool and beach attendants). It is an gated community with lush landscaping , lagoons and a beach. The setting is truly magical. Be sure to take the boat ride offered by the hotel that goes through the resort. My grandchildren loved the resort including the bicycles provided to all the guests, the complimentary beach equipment including a sail boat. The 1.5 hour snorkel trip was great too. We ate at all our meals at the hotel and Zapote was our favorite. Look into the meal plan that is not advertised but is reasonably priced. My son and his wife did the community dinner and said it was a highlight. At the beach and pools the staff come around with treats all day long. The snowballs are great too! The suites are fabulous and large with luxurious bedding. Housekeeping cleaned our suite to perfection 2x a day. There is a great spa with a sauna and steam area and a beautiful adult pool at the spa. Rosewood Mayakoba does everything first class! I want to thank our amazing butler- Gerry. He provided us with great service during our stay and had the best attitude. Be sure to download the app- to contact the butler. He will respond immediately. Thank you also to Susana Palacios/ Concierge- for your great communication in planning our trip. Also to Jorge Garcia- Reservations Agent- for being so kind to us. It was a pleasure meeting the Rooms Director- Alberto. Thank you for the beach bags. A resort that is that special does not just happen without the leadership of the General Manager- Daniel Scott and the Resort Manager- Christian. They are always present and very engaging with the guests. I loved talking with both of them. There is a reason Rosewood Mayakoba is rated 5 stars by Forbes Travel Guide. They have also won numerous awards including Travel and Leisure Worlds’ Best. Our whole family enjoyed our week at Mayakoba and look forward to coming back.

We just got back from an extended family reunion at the Grand Velas, Riviera Maya and can't say enough positive things about it...but will try: - The rooms were fantastic. Super comfortable and big enough to fit families of 5 (assuming one is an infant) - One of our party had mobility issues, which was not an issue at the hotel - The food is unbelievably good for an all inclusive hotel - The service is amazing, all around. The people at the restaurants and pool are working non-stop to serve you. A huge shout out to our personal concierge Jorge who helped our family tremendously and to Osvald from the - Teen club who were amazing - There are a ton of activities to do for all ages - The pool is unbelievable - Make sure you try Piaf Can't wait to go back!

My friend gave me the famous Xcaret Water Park. The hotel prices on Christmas are ridiculously expensive, especially the hotels under Xcaret. So this time, apart from staying in this Xcaret Mexico (hereinafter referred to as X), the other one is not very popular with Chinese tourists. Many Iberostar Quetzal (hereinafter referred to as Q). The price of Hotel Q is less than half of that of Hotel X (of course, Hotel X includes tickets to the amusement park, whether it is worth it or not). I recommend Q more than X, which is more popular with Chinese people, has better hardware facilities, and better scenery. environment: Hotel X is a five-star hotel that Chinese people are familiar with. It has large rooms, new facilities, and hardware. The beach is very distinctive, it feels like an Avatar floating mountain. Most of the beach is reef, a short stretch of sand, and the water quality is super good. X is the garden and Q is the jungle. Catering Services: If I only stayed at the X hotel, I might think it was fine, but unfortunately I stayed at the Q hotel. In contrast, Q Hotel has a feeling of being at home, the waiters are more happy and easy-going, the drinks are open for drinking, the buffet is fresh and varied, and there is basically no need to wait for a table. You can eat big lobster and oysters on Christmas Day, without being stingy at all. In contrast, the waiters at Hotel X are all business-like, and they have to wait for a table when there are not many people at the buffet. It looks like a big place, but there are few tricks to eat and drink. I also made an appointment for a Xin Gao Japanese meal. Don't expect too much. My daughter ordered an appetizer of rice, and what was served was a bowl of white rice! I ordered sashimi without wasabi, the waiter said sorry, there is no wasabi today, I will soak ginger slices for you instead of wasabi Activity: It is very convenient to go to the park under Xcaret, every 20 minutes. The hotel has a free drop-off service, you need to make an appointment one day in advance

As the Banyan Tree service did not have to say, that is, the charges are expensive, even the expensive is not good for hygiene, the pool villas, the small collapse in the yard can not lie, placed in the corner of the eaves do not say mosquitoes There are many ant bugs and a lot of spider webs. It looks dirty. The colony is also covered with insect secretions and spider webs. The partitions in the room are all gray, which makes people feel uncomfortable. And if it is too far to go to the beach, it is not convenient. It can only be said that this Banyan Tree is relatively backward, not as good as the nearby Viseroy.

We had the best time at Mahekal! It was our second time back and we’re ready to plan our next stay. The rooms are lovely and the amenities are everything you need for a relaxing vacation. Food and drinks are very good (especially compared to other all inclusives in the area), but what stuck out the most to us was the service. Everyone we encountered was more than kind and really made the experience so memorable. Special shoutout to Rosa, Alberto, Luis, Eduardo, Manuel and Gilberto - they are all a dream and we miss them already! Can’t wait to go back.

We just returned from our anniversary trip to the Andaz Mayakoba, and we loved it. We actually starting planning our next visit before we had even left! The service is excellent--only positive experiences with all staff we encountered. They are so kind, helpful, and sincere. We loved having our room cleaned every day, then tidied again in the evenings while we were at dinner. The beach is beautiful--lovely soft, light sand and NO sea****! The whole Mayakoba area has barriers placed in the sea to keep the sea**** from getting into the swimmable areas and onto the beach (we heard from other couples on our flight back that sea**** was a problem on other beaches around Cancun and Playa del Carmen). The whole resort is lovely with meticulous grounds. The buildings have a modern feel to them (stainless steel, gray woods, glass), but with a beautiful, colorful mural painted on each one (in the lagoon area). The regular king bedrooms are spacious with big bathrooms, a sitting area, and an outdoor patio. (We've stayed in suites in the past which are lovely and have a great little plunge pool, but don't ever really use all the space since we're usually off doing things). The resort is divided into a lagoon area and a beach area with bicycles you can ride back and forth, or golf carts that will take you from one area to the other. Both areas have their advantages with access to restaurants and pools. The lagoon area feels a little quieter, probably. It's easy to access both areas--I enjoyed riding the bikes to and fro. Food is very good. Highlights for us were Sotavento which is magical at night--right on the beach with lights and lanterns. I had sea bass and the green salad at Sotavento and both were delicous. The ice creams there were top notch--we tried two of the desserts one night, then came back again the next night for dessert so we could try the other ice creams! Casa Amate is a little pricey--but worth the splurge. Everything is prepared so beautifully. The red snapper was cooked perfectly and bursting with spices and flavor, and my wife's chicken was ultra tender and flavorful. Starters, salads, and desserts were fantastic. The other restaurants are less money--Tinta del Pulpo and Cocina Milagro portions are large and shareable--especially if you plan to get dessert! (I liked Tinta because when in Mexico, I love eating good Mexican food.) Overall--highly recommended. One of our favorite resorts anywhere.
