Sunscape Cancun All-Inclusive Resort & Spa by Hyatt
10/10 Excellent
"This was our second time staying at Sunscape and we will be back. The property is very clean, the food is great, and the staff is so friendly and helpful. Loved that it’s family friendly with things to do for all ages. The pool is on the smaller side but it never felt crowded and we never had trouble finding chairs. "

Hotel Riu Palace Kukulkan - Adults Only - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"We loved it no complaints at all"

Ocean Riviera Paradise All Inclusive
8/10 Good
"Overall the stay was good. Only slight downfall was the difficulty in getting chairs by the pool at the ocean and making reservations for certain dinner spots. "

Moon Palace Cancun - All-Inclusive
2/10 Terrible
"Stayed March 17-22, 2026 with my elderly mother and two kids (ages 9 and 11). The resort itself is large with decent pools, restaurants, and a kids club. My children enjoyed the facilities and we had some good family moments. That part was fine.
The reason for this rating is the Palace Elite timeshare operation that is baked into the check-in experience.
At check-in, staff in green shirts approached me, called me an "Expedia VIP," and offered two complimentary Grand Day Passes to The Grand section of the resort. This sounded like an Expedia benefit. It was not. It was a timeshare sales pitch.
The catch: my entire family — including my 76-year-old Mandarin-speaking mother and my two young children — had to sit through a 90-minute sales presentation. I offered to attend alone. Refused. Since my mother speaks no English or Spanish and my kids are 9 and 11, this was an impossible condition.
Result: I paid $600 USD out of pocket for the day passes that had been offered as "free gifts" moments earlier.
It gets worse. When I complained, the resort offered a $200 partial refund — but only if I signed a Release of All Claims with a confidentiality clause preventing me from discussing the experience publicly. I declined to sign a gag order.
I also later learned that my booking included $250 in resort credits as part of Expedia's VIP Access program. Nobody at check-in told me about them. They went unused. The only "VIP benefit" anyone communicated was the timeshare presentation.

Excellence Riviera Cancun - Adults Only All Inclusive
8/10 Good
"Overall very Nice property. Got the room with upstairs pool. Not sure that was worth extra money. Didn’t use it that much. No idea why you’d pay extra for excellence club. Just got you Access to another pool and restaurant for another 1k? Food was good & staff very nice. Pools and hot tubs could have been warmer. Not their fault, but the brown seaweed ruined going into the ocean for me. Pools nice. Nice cushy loungers. Went on little speed boat snorkeling activity through onsite vendor. Was fun! Cancun hotel done didn’t have seaweed issue I don’t think. "

Hotel Riu Cancun - Adults Only - All Inclusive
10/10 Excellent
"Service was excellent, food was delicious and entertainment was on point"

GR Solaris Cancun & Spa - All Inclusive
4/10 Poor
"The resort is billed as an all inclusive resort. It seems as though you have to be “a member” in order for that to be true. Alcohol was only supplied in the room if you’re a member. Full access to some restaurants only if you’re a member. The food was really not good. The entertainment was basic. The property seemed dated and needed work. The kids area was non existent. I have stayed at RUI properties before and will stick to that brand from now on. "

Seadust Cancún All Inclusive Family Resort
