Clean rooms, curtious staff, nice beach, enough outdoor chairs for everyone, the pool is clean and nice. OK that takes care of the positive comments. The hole hotel is very noisy as it is very echo everywhere you go. The buffet area is so echo you feel like your in a cafeteria. The food was bad and had no variety.... More

This hotel is nothing but a bait and switch. If you want substandard food, sole fish pawned off as lobster tail, watered down drinks, a clean room, towels and toilet paper in your room, a showhead in your shower, a bar fridge that works, cold hot tubs and a closed swim up bar...then go here!! Oh wait...you'll only get that... More

1/ 24/2012 ....Just returned from Great Parnassus.... have been to Cancun 7 or 8 times now. Pro's and Con's. First Pro's... Very younger kid friendly. My 13yr old was too old for many activities. The Michael Jackson show was fabulous. The Portifino Italian restaurant was very good. The Magnus buffet was not so great except the pasta station. The Spa... More

I want to get the negative out first, you'll see the positive outshines the icky stuff. First thing, when we arrived, they had overbooked and had no room for the 20+ couples and families arriving that night. It took 6 angry men and women demanding to speak to the manager (at 1am) to finally get help -> we ended up... More

I don't usually write reviews but read them a lot. I just feel compelled to share our experience this time for the benefit of other travelers, mainly those with toddlers... My wife, daughter (4) and son (2) just got back from our stay here. We picked this resort because there was only 1 or 2 other that had child care... More

We chose this hotel for the location and the rate. We wanted to get away to an all inclusive for as cheaply as possible. We did not receive any hotel info when we checked in and there was no information in our room regarding restaurant hours, pool hours, activities, outings, etc. so we just figured everything out by walking around...

We were there for 6 nights and very much enjoyed ourselves. Other people who are posting things like "watered down drinks and sodas" need to realize that in Mexico their alcohol is bottled differently and the soda (even Pepsi) is not going to taste as good as the soda in the USA. Different water, different facilities. Anyway that being said... More
