My wife and I recently took a wonderful vacation to Cancun, Mexico for our 2nd anniversary in March 2009. We, unfortunately, seem to have a tough time remembering how good it was because the whole trip is over-shadowed by a scam that we fell for. We were hounded ALL WEEK LONG by people in the front lobby of the hotel... more

Like many reviewers I too was worried about the previous reviews but it was clear that management has made some changes and the issues are behind them. Let me start by saying we are travel agents. We were in the Riviera Maya in June so comparatively speaking this is a much smaller resort - the ones in the Riviera Maya... more

It is amazing how far a dollar will go. I strongly suggest tipping the bartenders, waiters, housekeeping staff, etc... The first day, I left a $2 tip for the maid and she overhauled our room. She straightened every item we had in the room sitting out (cologne, hair products, shoes, socks, cards, etc...). It was spectacular. We made friends with... more

Like others on TA.com I was a bit worried about staying here after reading some negative reviews. However, my worries were unnecessary!

This review is a long time coming, sorry about that. I went to the Grand Oasis Playa last year for spring break (though I am not a student).

Don't believe the bad reviews, we had great service! our room was nice , clean and always had a swan or something done up on the bed. The mini bar... more

I was looking for a place to take my hubby for a surprise 50th birthday trip. I read the reviews and had some concerns about booking this 3 day trip but my first choice wasn't available so I did it but kept all the reviews good and bad in my mind. We are from new england and it was still... more
