i like it.
the price is right,the food is good,the view is espectacular,service is great ,biig thanks to Osvaldo He did great thanks everyone we are going back asap.
This was our first trip together and we loved it !! The resort was amazing the staff was great, the drinks and food couldn't have been better !!! We will sure return !!
This resort is absolutely gorgeous. Beautiful blue water, great food, awesome service. It was a perfect get away for our honeymoon! Our only complaint was the beds were a bit firm and the items in the hotel shop were extremely pricey. $25 for sunblock?!! But with the resort 20 min out, it's really the only place to go. On a positive note we were extremely pleased with this resort and the service provided by Cheap Caribbean once we arrived. They helped us once we landed in Mexico, helped book a dolphin excursion, and with checkout. The resort and location was great and our booking experience with Cheap Caribbean couldn't have been better. Already decided to go through Cheap Caribbean for a group summer vacation in the summer of 2014. We're thinking St. Thomas or Jamaica!!
Nice resort. Grounds are beautiful, the staff was friendly and helpful when needed. The room was OK, a little leak in the bathroom ceiling but nothing serious. The picture window looking into the bath from the sleeping area of the room was a little odd, never had a room with that feature. Beach had seaweed but it was cleaned frequently and otherwise beautiful. We didn't use the pools but they were sparkling. Food and drink were comparable to other all-inclusives we've been to. The only con was the H10 premium pitch and even that wasn't too bad. I told the rep. we weren't interested and he didn't push it. All in all the resort was as advertised and the price was right.

Is the beach rocky?12 answers
2 years, 26 months ago
BarryNJ
This resort has a white sand beach, but there are also coral formations so there is the possibilty for coral to wash up on the shore.
JenCC
Not at all. It was very nice.
burton98
Not at all
stat
No, it was sandy. We stayed at a nearby hotel a few years earlier and the beach was very much a coral reef beach, but this beach was sandy. There was a lot of seaweed, and no shells at all.
Janna13
not a rock (or seashell) on it!
lduha
Not Rocky but does not have the beautiful turquise water like other parts of Mexico.
Anonymous
No it's beautiful soft beaches on Paradise Island.
Sundai
no rocks...little waves...just beautiful
joweeep
The beach is not rocky - nice white sand. There is a lot of seaweed washed up on shore, but does not interfere with your ability to walk along the beach or swim. The water drops off fairly quickly but you can still wade out about 30-40 feet before it reaches your waist. Gentle waves on the beach because it's protected by the reef about 1/2 mile out.
RockyMtnSunseeker
The beach was pure powder. I live in Miami and its nicer than South Beach by far!!!
acpo2000
No - it is very fine, powdery white sand. Seaweed does wash up daily, but the resort removes it from the beach.
Nashvegasduo
no the beach was not rocky, and in the water it was nice and sandy too! no problems with rockiness like up in cancun

How is the food? I have heard bad reviews that the food is horrible

I never stayed at this resort. it ooked nice from the outside though.
LauraH
This resort offers 7 restaurants to choose from with the standard all-inclusive plan and none of them require reservations. The dining options include everything from Asian, to American, to Italian cuisines. With this much variety it would be hard to be unsatisfied.
JenCC
I am a fairly picky eater but found there to be plenty of options for food and didnt starve on vacation. However, I cannot say I gained weight it was that good but I didnt go hungry. There was always something you could find and at dinner if we visited the al la carte restaurant and there wasnt anything on there I found I liked, it was nice to know we could go to the buffet and find something there.
burton98
We found the specialty restrauants offered very good selections. The buffett breakfast was good with them making on demand omelets and eggs to order. The rest of the buffett food was ok.
stat
The food was not good, there was no real variety. We expected to have some wonderful seafood since staying at a beach resort, and the only seafood or steak options were priced above and beyond the 'all inclusive', and the price was right around $40 for a small lobster tail or a small steak. The food was great at our last resort, 5star presentation as well.
Janna13
food was very good for an all inclusive.......fresh, tasty, well cooked. we ate at the buffet, the beach buffet, and 3 of the specialty restaurants and all was good.
lduha
Not worse or better than other all-inclusives I've been to. Some are quite good like the Villa Marina and others quite horrible like the italian restaurant!
Anonymous
The breakfast and lunch buffets had some decent things as long as you weren't too picky, some things were pretty bad though. Could've been better overall. Snack bars were open all day and had typically junk food/fast food. Didn't eat at the buffet for dinner (wouldn't), but tried most of the restaurants open only for dinner. They were much better in quality and service.
DetroitSMX
Food was amazing! And, the finer resturants no extra charge, first come first serve basis. I talked to alot of people in airport who hated there resort. They could not give you enough, and if you could not find what you like, I can't even imagine that!!
Trudi
The food was okay but nothing to rave about. However, if you go with the Privilege Package eat ther every night. The food was 4-Star.
dholiver409
the food was nice, the buffet had alot of fish, but there are other a la carte resturants, like an italian, japanese with a hibachi show, and a place for simple steak and potatoes! also u can get regular burgers and fries by the pool! i loved the food...
joweeep
I found the food provided at the main meals to be good. Certainly comparable to other resorts at which I have stayed.
The "restaurant" choices were fine. I think some people expect to get "real" Italian or Japanese at an all-inclusive resort in Mexico. (Which I think is an inherently flawed expectation.) I heard both positive and negative reviews about the same "restaurants," so I think it becomes a matter of taste and expectation.

How expensive was the ground transportation, from airport to resort?11 answers
2 years, 24 months ago
Karey
$40 dollars max. They charge you about $40 to the hotel, and we payed $32 back to the airport.
Sundai
Not sure was included in package, which was very convienent!
Trudi
$80 USD for round trip vouchers through Olympus Tours.
GoBuckeyes
Our shuttle was included in the "all inclusive" deal, however the resort stated a taxi to Cancun airport would be about $50 - $70 USD.
Nashvegasduo
we paid $120 round trip private van. I think it held up to 6 people.
2timesayear
$45.00 per person round trip. It's a real good deal.
SGTMAJ
When we booked our trip, transportation to the resort and back to the airport at end of trip were both included with the trip cost. Ask the call taker about that before booking for sure.
GMAF
the airport shuttel to the resort was included in the cheap caribian package, both ways.
if you take a taxi it would be about 20.00
MECAVANAGH
Use the transfers offered by CheapCaribbean.

Is the Privilege Service worth the extra $300+11 answers
It seems just for easy check in/out, premium drinks, priority seating at resaraunts I need to pay $300+. What are your thoughts?
1 year, 23 months ago
The Rock
We paid for the upgrade. It is pricey, but we found it to be worth it. The dinner reservations were a MUST unless you like eating real late, and the premium drinks were nice. It sucks you have to pay extra for this, for sure, but If you don't mind parting with the cash, do it. Worth it in the long run to make a better trip.
GMAF
we didn't do it, and didn't miss a thing. We stayed 5 nights, and had two nice restaurant nights- Mexican and steakhouse (not the extra upgrade one) both were very good. I'm not a picky drinker- pina coladas and mudslides kept me going for much of the day, and never once missed upgraded liquor! If you're into clubbing, the one disco requires something additional, but between the buffets, a few nice meals, nightly shows, and the same incredible beach and pools, we saved our money and still had a top-notch vacation.
turtleboy
Something you'll want to think about is when you're traveling - if it's busy season the check in / check out and priority reservations would be great to have, as well as the seating on the beach. If those things don't concern you, the resort is beautiful without the extra service.
JenCC
didn't seem like it, unless you are their for a honeymoon
wzrfan
I asked myself the same question prior to booking my trip to OCT for the first time. True, you do get the perks of dinner reservations, fast check-in, butler service, in-room jacuzzi, Privilege lounge and private beach access, but you also receive staff that goes above and beyond serving you. If you do not have the extra $300 budget, then opt out; however, if you do, I believe it is worth it. We also received a lobster dinner. I noticed non-privilege guests waiting during dinner time for reservations and complaining. They were very perturbed. We received reservations without a problem on any night/time we desired. Consider it like VIP in a lounge or concert you would go to. Would you like the extra care, attention, and service? If so, it's worth it!
LiveBold
I would say its not worth it, just returned from a 7 night trip and did not pay for Privilege. Our check in was very easy, did not once have to wait for a restaurant (but we did get there very shortly after they opened), and i am not sure what the premium drinks are, because I was able to get Captain, Smirnoff, Skyy, etc without a Privilege upgrade.
Jules532
No it is not the only difference is the liquor and that is it....Crown Royal is privilege, however Captain Morgan is not...not much difference to me.
Justus10
I was completely fine WITHOUT the Privilege perk. Save your money and do some excursions with that $300. The regular liqour was all at LEAST average stuff and good enough for me. Restaurants seating was same as Privileged guests so I don't know what that's about.
JimDiesel
I would have to say no it's not worth it. We had no wait for check in or check out. Not sure what premiun drinks are included but I asked for Captain Morgan rum instead of the bottom shelf stuff and it was included in mine. I never saw priority seating at any of the resturants. The Japanese steak house was the only one that was a little hard to get into because they only did reservations on each day at 6:00.
dcinpa
We didn't do it. At first I thought I wanted to, because I wanted an ocean view room, and even though I don't drink much, I wanted my drinks to be GOOD drinks. However, we changed our minds. We decided it wasn't worth it. We got to see the beach all the time and didn't spend much time in the room anyway. We did not find the drinks to be watered down; they just weren't the best quality, but that didn't matter. We were there in mid-June and the hotel was busy but not super busy, so the waits at the restaurants weren't bad. Ten minutes for the Japanese one and about twenty for the Italian. My boyfriend didn't mind waiting anyway because he would buy Cuban cigars from the vendor outside and smoke them while we waited!
We had no problems at check in. I had requested a king bed when we made our original reservations and was surprised that we were not offered that. So, I asked for a king, and they gave us one. I was polite and friendly to the front desk staff, and that may have made a difference. We saw "privilege" guests being rude and were very turned off by that.
We would go back again and still not pay the extra.
Ava86
I talked with several people checking out and asked the very same thing.....their words were NO WAY! So I did not pay the extra. If would have meant better food quality, I would have paid!
BigDaddy76016
Not worth it at all!! It really depends if you like to drink top shelf liquor, which Im not a drinker at all. They have domestic liquor like the tequillas of course, long island ice teas, bahama mama, daquiris, pina colodas and so forth.

Is there nightly entertainment?11 answers
1 year, 22 months ago
donna
Yes. Royal Solaris Cabo has a theatre inside their hotel. I was there for 5 nights and they had some type of show every one of those nights (magic show, dance show, carribean night, Mexican show, etc.). They were all very entertaining. They also have activities after the theater shows out in the lobby or outside. They have activities at the pool during the day. The kids at the resort loved the entertainment as did the adults.
75Degrees
There is nightly entertainment by the hotel staff, but we didn't participate. We chose to walk the beach at night or relax in the room.
Ava86
Every night.
Pete1
The Bravo staff was great!
BigDaddy76016
Yes, there were shows in the theater and sometimes things going on in the lobby every day and night.
dmdohmen
Yes, but I think there could have be more and they were not as impressive as other resorts that I have stayed at.
Boop
Yes. They post a schedule daily. Shows in the theater, parties at the bars, shows on the patios, kids stuff, and music in the lobby.
Staceven
yes there is nitely entertainment. theatre, dancing, lots of activities.
diaschm
Every single night!!:)
LadyM514811
there are things going on at the resort all evening but they do a very poor job of letting you know the details.
lillin
We didn't attend them, but they have a small theater with a crew that puts on nightly shows at around 9:30PM. They do imitations of superstars like MJ. Also, like comedy shows. They have a DJ that plays music at around like 10PM. They have things for Teens at their Teen Club.
But they highly promote this excursion called Coco Bongo which is going there and it's like a show that imitates stars like Lady Gaga and you dance. It's like a club.
NeedAVacay
Yes, they have a number of shows and kareoke another night and a "sudo" disco out by the pool bar. It is all low key. Each time we went there were families and children there. If you are looking for nightlife and entertainment go downtown to Cancun and hit the clubs and bars. You can take a taxi. Great during the day or night.
ALso the hotel has a nightly shuttle that takes you to a certain club for a fee. You get drinks and the ride to and from.

Not inside the resort
Mono
Kayaking and katamaran at resort. Great excursions for snorkeling, dolphin swimming, ziplines, etc.
SusanandJeff
Yes both BUT there right there on the edge of the hotel. Nothing special. You have to pay extra for the better stuff that takes you out into the ocean but well worth it
dolphins
The activities are not AT the hotel, but the hotel can book the excursions for you if you don't book them while booking. Many of the excursions will pick you up at the resort. My husband and I did snorkeling, ATV on the beach, sunset cruise, and zip-lining/repelling. The excursion people picked us up for the ATV and the zip-line tours. We took the resort shuttle into Cabo for the snorkeling and sunset cruise.
75Degrees
The resort does offer kayaking and sailing, but the snorkeling is limited to lessons in the pool. There are excursions you can take for snorkeling, which we did. We went to Maroma Park and loved it!
Ava86
If you can find anyone to help....they do have snorkel equip. POOR SERVICE
BigDaddy76016
You can book snorkeling right off their beach. There were several tour guides available everyday at the resort to book off-resort activities.
dmdohmen
Yes. Kayaking, snorkeling and wind surfing.
Staceven
yes there are lots of water sports.
diaschm
tons - not enough time in the day to do everything
Melaylay01
they charge you for everything at the resort, you can only use the kayaks for 30 minutes, the snorkeling is more expensive to do from the resort, cheaper to book an excursion with the tour guy at front lobby, it includes the spinnaker with the snorkeling and is better snorkeling than at the resort.

Before I went, there were 2 restaraunts that required closed-toe shoes and no shorts for men. No shorts and flip-flops for women. After we arrived they told us that the dress code had been changed. Basically it was no beachy flip-flops, swimsuits/cover-ups, or cut-off shorts. Dressy flip flops were okay.

Yes all alcohol is included. They have the best tropical drinks and the pool bars offer whatever you want! They rooms have 5 types of liquor and cold beer in the fridge along with mixers.
ajwoods
it depends on the resort you choose. We stayed at the Majestic elegance Punta Cana and everything was included except wine from the wine list. The house wine was good adn it was included
MeganB
Yes all alcohol is included. The fridge in your room is stocked with soda, beer and water,but you can order anything you want and they will put in your room. ( i.e. vodka ( they give you a whole bottle). I highly recommend the Martini Bar!
tennis
Yes, all drinks, cocktails, coffee bar, etc was included. The only items not included were a few things in the fine dining restaurants (certain steaks & lobster). Warning, the fine dining restaurants do not take reservations and you must have long pants (no shorts for the guys).

The Mini bar only had Water, soft drinks and Beer. All alcoholic beverages are included in the all inclusive available at any of the bars or restaurants as well as waiters/waitresses coming around.

Your "mini-bar" in your room includes beer and soda. Your other drinks are obtained at the bars throughout the resort and are included in your package.

They have bars in the lobby, by the pool, service at the beach, in restaurants, swim up bar. You can drink starting at 10am each day, all drinks in smaller plastic clear cups, you can get 2 at a time, will give you bottled water when ever you want. Only have 1 beer selection, Corona, with a lime! You can bring bigger plastic cups and they will fill them for you.

all drinks are included! we thought it was only beer and soft drinks but all mixed drinks are included as well.
nickname1234
Yes, the bars are included! I am a rum drinker and they were very helpful with different drink ideas! If you like rum as well, you must try the Miami Vice. It is half Pina Colada and half strawberry daiquiri! Awesome!
Just grab a drink, sit by the pool or at the beach and relax! We were only there for a short time so we did not go on any excursions, but we are looking forward to going to see the Mayan Ruins on our next visit.
johnniebean
Yes, alcoholic beverages are included (cocktails, beer, wine etc.) The hotel provide their own enteraintment at night.

Ocean Coral Turquesa, how is the beach? How's the crowd?11 answers

Thanks

Qbanaza24
The water can be a bright blue, but it can also be a tad murky depending on the tides, weather, etc. Sometimes the water does have some sea grass in it, which makes it not as crystal clear as it normally is.
There is nightly entertainment on the property, but it can depend on the individual guests at theresort at the time and how many people are participating, etc. There are usually shows in the theater and Karaoke most nights as well.
KristinCC
I havent been personaly but some friends of mine came back the week of the fourth and didnt like Ocean Coral Turquesa, Beds were terriable the smell of sewer and spider bit and Sand Fleas. They had two 19-20 year old with them and they were pretty bored. Hope this helps
Cofer
The water is a little murkier than at Cancun or Tulum because this area is protected by a reef. The reef is protected by an environmental agency and they are not allowed to spray poison to kill seaweed like they do in Cancun. It's not bad, just more seaweed. The water color is still beautiful.
They have a club-like party every night. The pools during the day are awesome fun too. There are lots of young couples.
Staceven
I have not been to either of those locations so I really can not say. However, there was a storm brewing when we were there so the water was not as blue and clear as I had hoped. You would be very satisfied with the degree of entertainment they provide. There were all age groups represented at the resort and the 'adults only' pool was perfect when we wanted to get away form the noise and activity of the other pools.
johnniebean
The water isn't as clear as Cancun or Tulum, but it is still a great beach to be at.
There are a lot of families and not a lot of night time adult activities. I would recommend an adult all inclusive.
Caballero76
you will have a wonderful time. there are activities for young people. salsa dancing, kayaking, sailing,snorkeling, 4 great poolsand a large white powder beach. nitely entertainmet and great food. lots of people your age from all over the world. have fun!!
diaschm
Having never been to either of those places, I really can't answer your question, but when we were there, the sea was a little choppy, so the water was a little sandy right at the shore. As to the crowd and entertainment, there was something for everyone. A LOT of young adults your age, but no matter what the age, everyone was so friendly! I would go back in a heartbeat!
PKC59
The beach was beautiful. Tiki huts, staff taking drink orders, beach volleyball, and soft sand. Didn't have a problem getting a chair (in August). The water was very warm and clear, there was some seaweed, etc on the beach, but we traveled in hurricane season and the water got a little rough, so that could be why. I am 24 and I traveled with two friends and we had a great time. The resort is split 50/50 between a young, fun crowd and couples. We had a great time at the resort - plenty to drink and parties at night. You HAVE to go to Playa del Carmen - Coco Bongo was the best part of the trip. The resort offers a very fun, safe bar hopping trip which was worth every penny.
Melaylay01
Tulum is crystal clear and very blue. We were there for an excursion to the ruins, so we saw that. The beach at Ocean Coral Turquesa was brown and green, kinda like the Gulf. We tried snorkeling at their beach and visibility was terrible. The water was warm though. Tulum's water is much better.
NeedAVacay
The color of the water at Ocean Coral does not compare to Cancun. The beach at Ocean has alot of debri, water seems dirty and no waves. The better beaches are in Cancun. Beautiful and lots of waves and clear water for snorkeling.
Young couples should go here only if they want to relax and unwind. The night life at the resort is low key. The pool bar only stays open until 1:00am. The entertainment staff trys to engage people but you would be better off getting a taxi and going into Cancun for the best nightlife ever! You will love Cancun. We went to Cancun for years and had a blast. Now we are looking to just relax. Wait until your in your 40's or 50's- then go to Riviera Maya.

the water was a little murkey due to hurricane but no seaweed. the entertainment was ok they always have something going on and the crowd was mostly a party type crowd

Children friendly? What activities for kids?4 answers
1 year, 14 months ago
Ray
Upon reviewing the resort information posted on our website, Ocean Coral & Turquesa stands out as a vacation oasis because kids stay free. The resort makes sure they have the time of their lives. In addition to a children's pool, the resort has both a Kids' and Teen Club. At Mini Club Daisy, kids 4-12 can set off on treasure hunts, play water sports, and put on shows. The older kids stay busy at the Teen's Club, with beach volleyball and kayaking. They can even get their daily video-game fix thanks to the five gaming stations.
MariaCC
They have Daisy Club for kids and teens that organizes activities however we didn't get a chance to try it. Through out the day the staff puts on ongoing activities for kids like contests and classes. We were stuck in the lobby for two days because of rain and not once have I heard either one of my kids say "Mom I am bored"
Kate0620
they have a kids program, but as most all inclusives go, its a booze fest for most guests. I saw about 2 kids the whole week i was there.

We have 23 months daughter. Was not noisy, because it is school year, but they have activities for the kids over there.

How do you upgrade to the privilege level and how much is it?4 answers
1 year, 14 months ago
Christina
To upgrade to the Privilege level you will need to select the Privilege Junior Suite when choosing your room category. The additional price will be listed in the reservation during your booking process and is based in the number of nights you are staying.
MeganCC
At the check in desk or on line, at theOC web site. Cost is about 75.00 extra a day.
Higrader
you have to buy the package, it ranges anywhere from $7,000 to $39,000 depending on the package...its a 15-25 year vacation deal, not just a "for this trip" thing...they will describe it, get you wasted on top shelf booze and try to convince you what a deal it is. the more you resist the better the price gets, talk an hour to "think" come back with a no and they make the deal even better. just keep saying no and by the end you will have a great package, assuming you want to spend $7,000. USD for 15 years of vacations.
ErinE
Don't do it! We did not have privledge and did not see the point with the guests that had it. I believe it's $60 per day per person. So what if they give you "Premium" alcohol......cheap stuff works just as well. The ONLY thing that would be nice is if you are traveling at busier time of year. We went in late Sept which is off-season. When you have "Privledge" you get to put your name on the list before the others. We never not one time had a problem getting into a restaurant , longest wait was 20 minutes.

The excursions are great and also a wonderful way to split up your trip and do something different. There are a variety of excursions available which are guaranteed to appeal to a variety of interests. If you love the water a snorkeling/sailing excursion might appeal to you. If you love history and culture you may enjoy the Chichen Itza or Tulum excursions. If you need assistance or require more detailed information on the excursions we offer on our website please feel free to call one of our experienced Beach Experts.

Yes, tours are worth it, you are in Cancun, do as much, or as little, as you wish. We did Xplor, loved it, will do it again! Not much you can't do
We rent a car and go somewhere pretty much every day. The cost of tours is high, but we have traveled the carrbean east to west, and the Yucatan is the most resonsbly priced. We booked xplor on line, payed 95.00 for it at the gate, they charge 130.00, have fun!
Higrader
The snorkling trip right off the beach of the hotel was the best! They took us out for two hours and gave us personal attention. We took 4 snorkling trips and this was by far the best and the cheapest! No thrills such as eats or drinks, but the best of the reefs!
Carleen
if you take the 2 hour timeshare presentation, you can use the $ incentive twards excursions. the catamaran/snorkling and lunch at isla muheres was awesome, a all day trip and after incentive it was only around $50 a person all transport fees and reef charge included in that (you pay them seperate but added together about $50 a person for a whole day of fun, food and booze included)
ErinE
We went to see pyramids in Coba, company name Olimpus, but didnt like a guide at all. She was young and did not gave a lot of info. Driver did. Probably it is good idea to ask about guide person.

WiFi is only provided in the lobby area and that is complimentary for all guests. Internet Service in the rooms, including Privilege guests, is via cable which is provided by the resort at the current rate of $10 per hour, prices are subject to change.

Wifi is free, but you have to be in the lobby and the signal can be a bit sketchy. It worked 2 of the 4 days we were there.

Some room service is, but some of the items on the menu you have to pay for if you are not a privileged guest. It was pretty clear on the menu.

yup. 24 hr room service is free for all guests. the 'priviledged' guests just have a more extensive menu to select from.

YES!!! just not beer...you only get 2 beers per room per day. The chicken strips are to die for when you have been boozing a bit too much and want that 2 AM SNACK! :)

has anyone been parasailing while staying at Ocean Coral & Turquesa????4 answers
I have read a ton of warnings...no first hand horror stories but a lot of people scared to parasail here. Anyone have first hand experience, good or bad?
1 year, 13 months ago
MN
I have not had first hand experience here but one should always be cautious when selecting a company offering parasailing. You want to select an experienced, well rated, and safe company. You should always do your research and review their safety record before selection.
ccsusan1
We have parsailed at Moon Place, just north of OC, had a great time, and would. Recommend it highly. There are two types of parasails, one your legs dangle, I would imagine that could be difficult on take off and landings, we went with a company that is like a floating chair lift. Very secure, and they were very professional. See our video of it on YouTube.
Search parasail over moon palace, or higrader1 videos. enjoy:-)
Higrader
If you are in the all inclusive pkg, yet it is FREE
PrestonsGirl
Wasn't an option when we were there.

No one parasailing near here , There is a coral reef in front of hotel so it is good for snorkeling but is not that deep

1 year, 13 months ago

You can never go wrong with a tasty local rum drink! The bartenders are awesome when it comes to suggesting something new and delicious concoctions to try.
ccsusan1
Everything. They had a long list of specialty drinks that range from mudslides (which were very good) to fruity bahama mommas. I tried almost every drink on the menu that didn't contain gin and liked everyone of them. I ended up drinking a 34 oz thermos of vodka lemonade served by Carlos at the pool bar for a few days straight.
augiecrazy8
Try a Miami Vic, all there bartenters are great:-)
Higrader
Rivera Maya and the mudslide drink
PrestonsGirl
Hugo at the swim up bar is awesome.
paloma (mexican margharita) is a must try...not as sweet as 'regular' margharitas.
Spark
the lobby bar is by far the best! Jimmy rocked! the peach daquri was good, and they apparently make good mojitos. anything frozen is by far better- it is HOT there!
ErinE
Some times they dont put a lot of alcohol to mixed drinks, but you always can ask for extra. Was not a problem for us. My favorite was campari and orange juice, my husband liked chocolate martini and Mexican water, tequila)).

about 30 mintues. Cost....it was included in my travel.

The resort is approximately 17 miles from the Cancun Airport and you are able to include the roundtrip aiport transfer service with your vacation package for an additional charge.
MariaCC
OC is 8 miles south of the airport, transfers about 75.00 per person,
Or take a cab, we have not done this. We rent a car for the week, for 300.00, we go anywhere anytime we wish, American car rental is who we have used for years now. Getting around in the Yucatan is very easy,
And the the people are great.
Higrader
20 minutes, 40 dollars
moises
20 min and we took a shuttle....it was about $45...cabs are very expensive in this part of mexico. We took a cab one day to cancun and it was $80 round trip.
heidy
Not far. Only about 10 to 15 minutes. I'm not sure what cost you are wanting.
Carleen
its about 30 min. i grabbed a cab from the road and it was $35 USD. the shuttles from the airport are really expensive, like almost 100! you can also take the "payless car rental" shuttle for free to their location, right on the 307, and get a cab at the gas station that is right their for even cheaper if you are a "thrifty" person like myself. be careful about car rentals, they wanted a $20,000 deposit for $66 forth of car rental if you dont get their inflated rental insurance.... dont believe the car deals on travelocity unless its a rental co. you know well.

Around 25 min drive from airport. We have paid for round trip $50 per family

Denver, Puerto Morelos just 3 miles south of OC, or a mall in the hotel zone, just depends on what you wish to buy? They have the collectivo,and cabs going any direction you wish!

Cancun is a 30 minutes taxi drive from the hotel. There is also an outside market somewhere close but we didn't get a chance to go.
Kate0620
We were told to go to Play-del-Carmen. It was a nice trip. Typical island shops. Cost us $20 per person for the trip. I would go again.
Carleen
Cancun or Playa Del Carmen are ok to travel to during the day (probably 25 minutes to a half hour) The hotel can arrange for a cab or your tour company may have a shuttle service
JAS79
I shopped at Isla Muheres and cancun, both too pricey for me, but i live in NYC where I can get almost anything for $1. The gift shop at the hotel has a ton of stuff but it is WAY overpriced. you may want to try puerto morelos to shop
ErinE
At a resort almost everything is more expensive.
Rytorasa
Playa Del Carmen is a short cab ride (under 30 minutes) and has excellent shopping availability on '5th Avenue'. If you buy any of the excursion activities through the reps at the hotel (ex: snorkeling, swimming with dolphins, etc.) ... they'll throw in a round trip late afternoon trip to Playa Del Carmen with a Tequila Tasting included. The bus shuttles up to 8 people to and from the hotel lobby, with a tour guide, from 4 p.m. - 8 p.m. any night of the week.
mel06
You can walk south down the beach (45 to 60 min) to Puerto Morelos and enjoy some drinks and food and the beachside cantinas and a little shopping in the small shopping district. Or, you can take shopping tour into Playa Del Carmen (this is such a fun town!). I would actually recommend using taxi to go into Playa Del Carmen if you want to spend more than 3 hours (and you will!).

All mixed drinks are inclusive, but some of them is just for the privileged customers.
Rytorasa
It's domestic beer & rail well drinks. So Corona or Corona Light from the tap, all well drinks (rum, vodka, gin, etc.) and that includes all blended drinks (margaritas, daquiries, etc.). They have a large assortment as well as a 'specialty drink' daily. I was impressed by the selection and availability.

Rytorasa
They use bottled water for everything. Even the locals do not drink the water.

We are from the US, so were very wary of the water. I drank it a few times in error (things I assumed were juices that were actually 'lemon water' or 'orange water') and never felt even remotely ill. I also had PLENTY of blended drinks while there, and again, no sickness as a result whatsoever. We ate the resort food at least three times a day for 8 days and never once felt ill from the food either. They replaced the bottled water in our rooms fridge daily (as long as we required maid service), and the lobby bar has bottled water on hand.

food was great. This place is cleaner than most US places I have been . Drank tap water all the time , No problems!

We always reccommend booking your excurions in advance, as spots do tend to fill quickly. By booking early, you will get your preferred day/time slot. We do not have direct pricing for the vendors that we work with. We only have the pricing that we are contracted to charge. However, by booking directly with us, should there be a problem with the tour, we are then able to assist you, whereas if you book directly with the vendor, we cannot.
KateHCC
cheap Caribbean has a rep at the hotel who you will ultimately book with (Maria, she was super helpful!)...but do it at the hotel. you will be offered a 2 hour timeshare like presentation when you check in, and we scheduled the presentation the next day....and they paid us $75 a couple to go to the presentation, you get top shelf drinks during, and the premium breakfast or lunch!! After, you can apply that incentive right to your excursion! you DO NOT need to buy their program though. Also they will offer you less incentive at first...say no a few times to get more!

Howdy! I will go with my family to the Resort in January and, while reading the info about the place, I read something about a private pool for Privilege customers (the same as a private beach). Is this true?

The pool is open to any guest at the resort, however guests that book the Privilege Junior Suite room types do have exclusive access to a separate private beach area.

Interesting answer, particularly because I was under the impression that Mexican Laws do not allow anyone to own a portion of a coastline; hence, no beach can be (legally) private and all should be of free access (whether there is a hotel in the area or not!)

The excursions that are available for the region you are traveling to are available on our website.

You can click on each individual icon for further information regarding pricing and age requirements. You can always, of course, call into our help desk and speak with one of our beach experts for assistance as well.

There are dozens (maybe hundreds!) of excursions available from most of the hotels in area. A huge variety for all ages. The hotel staff (and especially the Olympus Tours/Cheap Caribbean rep) is very good at explaining them and booking them for you. They tend to be a bit pricey, but you know they will be safe, unlike something you might have pushed at you by some unknown person on the street. We did an ATV jungle tour and a speed boat tour that were both fun.

What is the weather like in July
4 months ago
spaz
According to Holidayweather.com, the temperatures in the Riviera Maya region can range from the upper 70's to the mid 90's. It is also not uncommon to see a 30% chance of rain each day in the forecast, however, most of the time, showers do pass quickly. Keep in mind though that July is is the middle of the Atlantic Hurricane Season which runs from June 1 until November 30.
KateHCC
I was a little farther south near Akumal last July. It was very sunny everyday and quite hot 82-88 F. As long as you are not far from the coast/beach or are in a pool it feels great. Hiking ruins or jungle inland is a pretty sweaty ordeal. Strong sunblock or rash guards are needed if you are fair-skinned. The ocean also is much warmer in July compared to December so you can stand or snorkel for longer without getting cold.

Tours can be added while on vacation as well. Olympus tours will be able give you a welcome packet that will include tours, excursions and local information. This rep may not be in the hotel daily but should have a regular schedule to provide to you. This rep will be able to assist you with any tours or activities off property. We would recommend only using services provided by hotel or Olympus so you don’t have any unexpected surprises with services.

Right before you check out on cheapcaribbean.com website there is a list of excursions you can choose from and prepay for OR you can wait until you arrive at hotel (that way you can judge your excursion day according to weather) and there is an excursion desk in the lobby of the hotel that has many more options, you can schedule your excursion there and pay for them on the day you check out of the hotel.

This resort is in Punta Coral, in the Puerto Morelos area, is 17 mi from Cancun Airport (CUN), 21.75 mi from Playa del Carmen and 19.88 mi from Cancun.
It is recommended that you at least pre-purchase transfers to the hotel as part of your package.
This resort has many great amenities to keep on on site! Tours to various locations nearby are available if you think you will only make a day trip. Otherwise not guests do not rent cars.

I don't think so. Everything you could want is in the resort. There is relatively fair taxi faires and bus tours to everwhere. On one bus tour we went through a checkpoint where there were acutally armed gaurds weilding AK-47's watching for drug trafficking. I was glad to be on the tour bus and not on my own. This was a ways from the hotel so don't let it scare you. It's just a reality of the country.

Topless and nude sunbathing is not permitted anywhere in Mexico.

We saw a few topless bathers at the Ocean Coral and Turquesa, but that's nothing compared to the nudist resort down the beach (about halfway between the hotel and Puerto Morelos)! That was the talk of everyone at the pool who made the trek into Puerto Morelos (which is a fun thing to do for a few hours).
lifeisgood220
Minimal, but a person can or can't depending on their liking.
Gami
we saw no topless sunbathing, though it might just be due to the fact that most clientele seemed to be american. when i've gone to resorts with more european guests than american (e.g. in punta cana, dr), topless bathing seemed more common. not sure if there's an official policy on it or it not though!

"Local drinks" simply means all the local Mexican brands of beer, wine, liquor, etc. The term "a la carte restaurants" refers to the specialty restaurants on property. Typically, the restaurants that are not buffet-style are referred to as "a la carte" or "specialty" restaurants. Usually they require that guests make reservations through the front desk prior to dining. While meals at the a la carte restaurants are included with the all-inclusive plan, some dining restrictions may apply. Please check with the front desk for further details.

In one particular restaurant, better than 1/2 appeared to be an additional cost. This was not clear on their Website or as explained by the Front Desk Staff.

Hotel Description
Ocean Coral & Turquesa: Discover an All-Inclusive Adventure
Imagine gliding through clear blue waters, around a tropical reef teeming with
colorful fish. Picture yourself exploring the wonders of a Mexican cenote, an
underground source of water. These adventures, and others, are waiting for you
at the Ocean Coral & Turquesa Resort.
Known as the gateway to Mexico's famous Riviera Maya, this all-inclusive
resort is located in the quiet fishing village of Puerto Morelos. Its gorgeous
coral formations attract divers from all over the world. Even if you are a
beginner, you can experience them, too, since Ocean Coral & Turquesa offers
introductory scuba lessons in the pool. The nearby Dive It! Diving Center is
also available for PADI-diving courses or snorkeling excursions.
Besides out-of-this-world diving for adults, Ocean Coral & Turquesa
makes sure kids have the time of their lives too. At Mini Club Daisy, kids 4-12
can set off on treasure hunts, play water sports, and put on shows. The older
kids stay busy at the Teen's Club, with beach volleyball and kayaking. They can
even get their daily video-game fix thanks to the five gaming stations.
At Ocean Coral & Turquesa, four pools, a children's pool and a Jacuzzi
make your vacation wet-n-wild! Paddle over to the Blue Pool swim-up bar for a
pina colada. After a day of play, it's time to head to one of the resort's
seven restaurants. At Villa Marina, pair a grilled-seafood entree with a
salt-rimmed margarita. In the mood for something lighter? Head to Le Petite
Creperie for a sweet or savoury crepe. Meanwhile, Mike's Coffee is the spot for
your morning tea or a little afternoon pick-me up.
To top it off, there's a daily activities program and nightly entertainment.
Add in a seaside massage or a facial at the spa, and in no time at all, you'll
be saying "Adios, real world... hola, paradise!
