This is the first time I have ever submitted anything to trip advisor. The Sun Palace was amazing. We had a little trouble at first when we were shown our room but after a little work and some small complaining we were able to upgrade to an AMAZING room (Thank you to Karla, who works in the front lobby, she...

My girlfriend and I recently stayed for a week. It was my 6th time to a Palace resort and her second. As always the resort is so clean and the service is excellent! Food is top notch as well as the spa. They make everything so easy and so relaxing! Mery and Yuri and the photo center were great! Maria... More

This was our first visit to the Sun Palace and it definitely won't be our last!! We arrived late on the 01/05/13 which was Opening Week to a lovely welcome, with drinks and snacks available for the weary traveller. Check in was very efficient and we had time to relax with a drink by the beautifully lit pool before tucking... More

I really loved our stay at Sun Palace. We just got back a couple of days ago, and I already miss the daily activities (pool / beach volleyball especially). There are too many good things to say about our stay, I'm sure I will forget a few! This was our (me and my girlfriend's) first time visiting Cancun. We are... More

This was our fourth visit to the Sun Palace. My husband and I always return there when we need R&R time. Each visit keeps getting better. We used our points to upgrade to concierge level, take a trip to Isla Mujeres, spa time and we also used points to buy tequila and cigars. Well worth the 11% tax we had... More

Just returned from the Sun palace after a week’s trip to the resort with my girlfriend. I’ve stayed at 5 Palace resorts and after my stay at sun palace I would have to rank it as my least favorite of the ones I have stayed at and would not likely stay again. I enjoyed my vacation but would just not... More

Totally agree that one of the most important facets of a stay is arrival. When it has to do with transportation issues there is precious little we can do and it shows in your review. It is a very detailed comment of different situations. Some are quite recurrent and important and for these I apologize and take full responsibility. From... More

What draws my attention in your review is the title: Perfect week as expected. And-other than praising your great review- I am sitting here thinking to myself: "Is there anyone who does not expect to have a perfect week?" And then of course, the question hits you: What is perfection? But a guy named Will said it long ago: "Beauty... More

Each one of your observations is very welcome and valid for us. Both the good and the disappointing. Yep. Weather is something a bit out of our range as is the wind. You can always expect wind when on the coast. I am sorry this made you cancel the Chef's dinner. I feel it could have offset your experience for... More

Geee! Thank you for a very nice review. But would everyone stop advertising certain rooms? I've only got a few and now everyone wants them. And sometimes, if they're not available (May will be closing upwards of 92 %) I have a client in distress. Our other rooms are also beautiful. Seriously though, I appreciate your kind words.
