Do you have a large family, or like to travel together with other families, neighbors, or friends? Then let Karisma’s Generations Riviera Maya resort make your vacation a special one with its “all suite, all oceanfront, all gourmet” all-inclusive concept.
I love a good swim-up suite. In an upgraded room category with extra amenities. In a location which offers some terrace privacy. In an overall superlative resort. In a place where I can easily access the beach. Well, I’ve found another resort which meets my criteria–Excellence Riviera Cancun in the Riviera Maya.
For those of you who requested more info on resorts/suites amenable to families, here’s another very popular family-friendly resort located north of Playa del Carmen. It’s called Dreams Riviera Cancun Resort and Spa–anyone familiar with the Dreams name will know that these resorts are upscale properties geared towards families with younger children (the Explorer’s Club takes children as young as age 3). Unlike some other family-friendly resorts, Dreams properties typically do a very good job of entertaining their youngest guests. This particular resort offers a weekly beach camping adventure just for kids, big screen movies, separate kids theater for performances, sandcastle contests, rock climbing wall and splash pad at the Explorer’s Club, and the usual video games/table games. Here’s a big plus for parents–the Explorer’s Club is open until 10 p.m. and will make sure your kids have dinner thus ensuring that parents get some “couple time” while on vacation
I recently stayed at Live Aqua Beach Resort Cancun to check out their renovations (read my resort review and see my pics if you are interested), and here’s a video of my Aqua Club room.
For those of you who now look for my Friday suite review, mea culpa; sorry I’m late but work took precedence–who would have thought so many individuals needed documents at the same time?? Anyway, here’s a review for families out there who are searching for an upscale resort in the Riviera Maya not too far from Playa del Carmen. The Paradisus Playa del Carmen is a large property with two separate sections including adults-only (La Perla), and a family-friendly section (La Esmeralda). This review will focus on a Family Concierge One Bedroom Master Swim-Up Suite in the La Esmeralda section.
This resort is just about ready to reopen its doors after a complete renovation which was done in stages; it is slightly behind schedule, and when I confirm a reopening date I will post it. (FYI: I just got confirmation as of Oct. 19 that the resort has now reopened).
Thinking of going to an affordable all-inclusive resort in Mexico situated on one of Mexico’s best beaches? Look no further, Riu Palace Mexico may be the resort for you.
FYI: Atelier no longer allowing Estudio guests to access the property for free. You will now have to pay extra to do so.
I can’t believe it’s Friday again–time for another suite review. This time I’m taking a closer look at the one-bedroom Rock Suite Platinum at the Hard Rock Hotel Cancun.
Larger families and groups traveling together often have a difficult time finding all-inclusives which can accommodate their entire party while allowing for sufficient space for everyone involved. The Fives Azul Beach Resort Playa del Carmen is a perfect choice to meet these specifications–suites come in a variety of bedrooms, from the standard type of room to three-bedroom suites with rooftop space. This resort is located close to Playa del Carmen in the Riviera Maya which also makes it easy to shop in Playa, take excursions to the many wonderful cenotes and parks in the Riviera Maya, or just stay on-site and enjoy what the resort has to offer. Karisma has spent over $40 million on renovations during the last several years which has included new guest room buildings, additional restaurants, a new Plaza area where guests can meet and mingle, and has also pumped sand into the ocean in their attempt to make a smoother ocean entry.
