I stayed at this hotel with my boyfirend from 26th September 2011 for two weeks. It was brilliant. Before I went on my holiday of course I looked at trip adviser and was not to sure what to expect as there were some bad reviews, however the hotel was lovely. It is in a great location, peacefull and quiet but... More

My husband and I decided to take last minute vacation to Cancun and booked our vacation on Dec 1st for 5 nights leaving on Dec 4th and returning Dec 9th 2011. We were able to get a top notch room (oceanfront with a Jacuzzi tub in our balcony facing the ocean) for a decent price. We stayed in room# 138... More

Here is our review of the Great Parnassus, like previous reviews I will include helpful information regarding flights and overall experience, however the overall rating is on the actual hotel itself. Returned from the Great Parnassus on the 6th of December after a fantastic week in Cancun and at this hotel. Flew from Gatwick and paid the extra to pre... More

I am a little late with my review, but the property was outstanding. We were facing the ocean, and I felt our room was spectacular. The bed was comfortable, and the scenery was outstanding. The food was very good, and the spa as well as the gym were much more than I had expected. We actually went without the kids... More

Our stay at the Great Parnasuss overall was good, the accommodations were OK, I would equate it with a Hampton Inn in the US. The food was average, the Magnus buffet lacked variety, and the small restaurants had a very limited menu. As an arrogant American I expected that every member of the staff would understand English, this was not... More

We stayed at this resort for a famiy wedding. The resort itself is very nice and staff is pleasant and helpful. Had problems with housekeeping every day. Food is TERRIBLE. The restaurant waiters were wonderful. Only stayed here because that is where the wedding was being held. Would never have selected this hotel myself and will not go back. More

After a year long deployment to Iraq i waited until i could get away with my family to the place i remembered being so great. After arriving the first thing i noticed was how... More

We stayed here between Nov 14th - 28th. After a long journey from the UK, we asked on arrival about the upgrading to an Ocean front suite, but were told to come back the next morning as there were a lot of people checking out. We went into room 619, and even though it was nice decided we would def... More

We are at the great parnassus now and are having a great time. My 2 daughters ages 8 & 5 are also having a great time and loving everything. The food is ok, not great but the beach and pools make up for that. The staff is great and all the activities are very fun. We will post pictures when... More

I just returned from taking the family to the Great Parnassus from 11/21/11-11/24/11. The resort itself was nice. The location is great, as the resort is on the south edge of Cancun, so you are close to the airport. The customer service was hit and miss. When we tried to check in they had no record of us having reservations... More
