Two years ago my husband and I went to Mexico for New Years, his family decided to stay at the all inclusive Grand Velas Resort and Spa... The hotel was amazing, the grounds, giant, five restaurants in the complex.
The only problem with the "all inclusive" is that you can only drink one type of wine, anything else is extra charge... bottles... extra charge... lobster... extra charge... not mexican champagne.. extra charge... at the end of the week you have a higher extra charge bill than the cost of the whole week stay !
The quality of the food was very very good, freshly made.. which in some cases, seemed to be harvested right before preparing it, cause it took forever to come!The portions are very small, so you should over order EVERYTHING... specially when you go on a high occupancy week... and when you are at it, order cocktails double...
I have never been a fan of this giant complexes, but I will have to say, the spa was AMAZING! and it was perfect for traveling with kids, the kids corner is filled with great activities and fun stuff for them to do!
The rooms are very spacious, the are all suites, fitted with a nice expresso machine and yummy teas. All and all, the fact that you can jump in a cab and be in Playa del Carmen in ten minutes makes it so much better and enjoy amazing food and cool shopping, best part of the deal!
