Grand Residences Riviera Cancun

It’s almost as if this place knows how long you’ve been looking forward to your trip, and does everything in its power to make your stay unforgettable. Take advantage of the available all-inclusive plan to take the hassle out of your vacation. From the moment you set foot on the beachfront property, the Grand Residences Riviera Cancun staff lavishes you with welcome drinks and gifts like an artisanal handbag, Alebriji figure and traditional women’s necklace – plus personalized cookies and gifts for the kids. (PS: There’s a gratis bottle of Tequila and fresh fruit in your room as well.) No wonder they have a 5.0 Rating on TripAdvisor! Once you’ve changed and headed for the two outdoor pools, you’ll discover luxe touches like Evian Facial Spray, ice lollipops – even a five-minute sunscreen massage. The few underwater kicks it takes to get to the swim-up pool bar may be the most effort you’ll expend all day. There’s even a children’s pool for the little ones that’s just their size! Drop the kids off at the on-site children’s club and get in touch with your inner athlete at the on-site sports center, a workout at the well-equipped fitness center or a massage at the on-site full-service spa.

Spacious one- to three-bedroom condos sleep five to ten guests and are air conditioned. Full Kitchens allow you to save money by making your own meals. Bring the kids along to the on-site convenience store to stock up on groceries. Save a trip to Starbucks and brew your own espresso on your in-suite Nespresso Machine! If you’re up for a low-key night in, Flatscreen TVs with Cable have you covered. Gather everyone on the couch, put one of the kids on snack duty and another in charge of the remote. Or bring movies from home to watch on your DVD player. In-suite washer/dryers allow you to pack lightly. When the kids have finally fallen asleep, enjoy a glass of wine and a relaxing in soak in your in-suite jetted tub.

Make an adventure list and start checking them off, from bike rides into the charming downtown Puerto Morelos, to a Catamaran tour, to local eco-parks or Tulum’s archaeological sites. Take a family field trip to the Croco Cun Zoo. It’s known as an “interactive adventure zoo” and includes a sixty- to seventy-five-minute guided tour. You can feed, touch and even hold local wild animals. If you’re feeling brave, go for a walk among the crocodiles. Wet Set Diving Adventures offers exciting Snorkeling and Scuba Diving options. Snorkel the Mesoamerica Reef. Scuba Diving Adventures include Coral Reef Scuba Dive Tour, Bull Shark Dive, Cozumel Scuba Adventure and Cenote Scuba Dive & Adventure Tour. Cirque du Soleil Joya is the first resident Cirque du Soleil show in Mexico. It consists of a seventy-five-minute show and a one-hour dinner and musical prelude. The show is about an alchemist and his granddaughter who embark on an adventure to uncover the secrets of life. (The show contains parts that are very loud and may be too intense for young children.)
