When staff choose to go over and above...
From the moment we stepped out of the airport, we were greeted by Excellence Transfers - El - who drove us to the Royalton Riviera Cancun giving us a wonderful introduction to Cancun. The overall experience at this hotel was top notch but we want to make mention of a few names: Hideway attendant Sharon, who purchased and presented flowers on behalf of my family due to the sudden passing of my husbands mother the day before we left Canada. Over and above - we say thank you! A Big shout out to Nestor & Louis who provided exceptional service making us feel at home, organizing every detail with care and attention, including a special gift in memory of Glen's mom. Over and above - we say thank you! We will be back!

Great place to stay
The kids had a great time on the jet ski experience that they put on in the kids pool. Elisabeth was great with setting the kids up on the little jet skis. The level of entertainment this year has really been great, so much to do for everyone. This is our second year coming back and look forward to coming back again next year.

One week stay in the diamond club. Very relaxing.
Lovely resort. Enjoyed all the facilities. Juan C. the pool butler was amazing! He addressed our every need and was very attentive. Always checking on us to see if we were comfortable. Fabian and Cesar our butlers checked on us everyday and we're always ready to give assistance. Wonderful place to take a vacation.
