Grand Sirenis Riviera Maya Resort & Spa - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"We had a great stay once again with our family. They made A LOT of renovations and changes since our last stay (2 years ago), all for the better. We were really happy with all the spaces and places to eat as well. The renovations to the coffee shop, dining hall, sports bar, sweet and salt, were awesome. We enjoyed live music every night outside of Sweet and Salt, and live music at Breathless rooftop bar, both great places. The fresh churro outside of Sweet and salt was great every night too. Our concierge Adan and Eduardo were really helpful. Also, shout out to our favorite bar tenders of the week, Almicar and Silvano at Prana (they were amazing!) and made our vacation pretty memorable. "
"This was our fourth or fifth stay at this resort. Since our previous visit was over ten years ago, we expected some post-Covid decline in service and quality, as has been common across many mid-range resorts. We were pleasantly surprised that Bahia Principe in Riviera Maya has largely avoided this. The food remains plentiful and just as good as it was 15 years ago, and the staff is as friendly as ever.
Beyond the human factor, the location is excellent, with easy access to nearby ruins in Tulum and worthwhile trips to Cobá and Chichén Itzá.
Three people in particular made our stay even better. Nathaneal upgraded us to a lovely renovated room. Rosaura and Leidy stood out among an already strong buffet restaurant team for their attentiveness — from remembering our usual order to noticing when my wife missed dinner one evening and asking after her when I arrived alone (she was unwell). These gestures are small, but kind, and they add a welcome human touch to an otherwise fleeting guest–staff relationship."

"The staff here are amazing! So friendly and accommodating. The resort itself is beautiful, with 4 hotels on site you have several options for dining, pools, and whatever else. A very lively nightlife, we never had to look hard for live music or entertainment! Will definitely be coming back next year. 10/10"
"Our room, bathroom, and the entire resort were spotless. The staff and food were amazing, and we're already planning our next trip there. Worth every single penny!!"
Secrets Akumal Riviera Maya - Adults Only - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"Nice property. The food was average, but better than other all-inclusive resorts I’ve tried. Great service and very friendly staff. The only issue was that they wasted half of our day trying to sell their travel packages. There was one lady on their sales team who was extremely rude and had a lot of attitude when we declined their “promotion package”. "
