You've earned a getaway. You're yearning for it, so claim it. Gran Melia Cancun Beach and Spa Resort is a luxurious, all inclusive modern creation set in a timeless, tropical paradise. Grab a palapa and your favorite island beverage from the Beach Bar and take a front row seat on the white sands and watch the Caribbean rhythmic surf. Those desiring a still-water experience can opt for one of the two enormous swimming pools overlooking the ocean. Families love the fact that one of the pools has a children's section.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Gran Melia Cancun. Great beaches and pool. Food was good at most of the eating locations, but service at the meals was very spotty (drinks were difficult to get refilled at times). We really enjoyed Ku Nah restaraunt.
Initially the screwed up our accommodations by giving us a room without an ocean view, which is what we had reserved, but they fixed it quickly. There was also a hard sales push to attend a time share sales pitch, which we declined.
Then we made reservations for dinner at the upscale Tempo restaraunt and upon our arrival, they advised us they lost our reservation and would only honor it if we had the reservation in writing, which we were not issued. Big headache.
Overall the hotel is beautiful and most of the staff tried hard to please you. Downside was the staff appeared inexperienced and had difficulty resolving issues. Don't know if we would stay there again, but would recommend to our friends to try.
This place is like paradise. Some peo ple complain about the most menial things but you can't expect perfection. This was close to perfect. All inclusive is a must if you plan on staying mostly at the hotel. Pools are great and beach is beautiful.

This is a massive resort and it can get a bit crowded. Fortunately, there's enough to do, as well as huge pools and a beach to allow everyone their own comfy bubble of space.

Hotel Description
Gran Melia Cancun: A New Vision of Luxury
You've earned a getaway. You're yearning for it, so claim it. Gran Melia Cancun Beach and Spa Resort is a luxurious, all inclusive modern creation set in a timeless, tropical paradise. Grab a palapa and your favorite island beverage from the Beach Bar and take a front row seat on the white sands and watch the Caribbean rhythmic surf. Those desiring a still-water experience can opt for one of the two enormous swimming pools overlooking the ocean. Families love the fact that one of the pools has a children's section.
The prestigious YHI Spa, located at Gran Melia Cancun Beach and Spa Resort, is a full-service spa offering a sensual refuge for the body and mind. Clients enjoy the extensive list of organic treatments, such as the "Serenity," a blending of lime and jasmine oils and "Balancing" with a combination of eucalyptus, sweet basil and rose oil. Find "Inspiration" with an infusion of vanilla, orange and peppermint oils, or indulge in a good "Nurturing" with a mixture of honey, milk and melaleuca oils. There's no need to worry about the tots while you're lounging in pampered luxury, because the resort's Mini-club offers supervised activities for munchkins age 5-12 daily.
With a fine selection of dining to choose from, we suggest that families sample the local fare at the hacienda-style restaurant, Ku-Nah, while lovers of the deep, blue sea can indulge in a variety of ceviches at La Perla, or snag a spot at Nami's sushi lounge. As for the adults-only option, Tempo, the Mediterranean cuisine, complete with wine-and-cheese tasting along with live music, is sure to create a memorable evening.
Those partial to wood and iron find the on-site, nine-hole, par-three, executive golf course to their liking, especially considering the complimentary, all inclusive greens fees. And the view's not bad, either. And after a day of sun and fun, retreat to one of the elegant rooms that offer contemporary design and upscale perks. Why not splurge and reserve a Red Level Ocean View; the view and extras are more than worth it!
