I love club med with kids! The Ixtapa one is a little cheaper than the others. Not sure about gluten free. And I’ve always been fine with the beds there. Plus the kids room is separated
Cheryl
The Royal Haciendas. Has a great kid program and new water park nice small resort
Courtney
The grand at Moon Palace, Moon Palace Cancún Kids and teens stay for free! Amazing kids clubs. I’m here now can send you some pictures. Message me if you have any questions or concerns
Christy
we liked this resort too.
Susan
Grand Palladium outside of playa has a greatkids pool and lots of food options
Lauren
Iberostar Selection Paraíso Lindo has a wave pool and lazy river for kids/families/adults. It's a beautiful resort with so much to do for all ages! And the beach is one of the best I've been to in Mexico, hands down. And it looks like their Star Camp for kids got an upgrade, too!
Chris
Sandos Caracol Eco Resort-they have a family room with a king bed for parents, separate room with trundle bunk bed so 3 singles-2showers/toilets-PERFECT for families
Shayna
I second the sandos caracol eco resort! I have three kids and the family suite was amazing! Separate bedroom with their own bathroom and tv/couch. I was nervous about how high the top bunk was so they brought me a roll away bed for free. They have allergy cards that you can get at the front desk and then you hand it in at the restaurants. We went the first week of February for $6300 I think
Lindsey
Sandos playacar has a waterpark, lots of food options and the beach is great
Sheryl
Grand Sirenis, just South of Playa Del Carmen, is a great place for kids and adults. Nice secluded bay for swimming & snorkeling, great pool and lazy river. Food was excellent but can't confirm the gluten free
Ashley
Sandos Caracol hands down
Shannon
Thanks for asking this question! Three kids here as well…one with Celiac…and we would love a family vacation. Will look into the recommendations.

Can't really answer your gluten question and I find most of the beds hard but comfy but as for the three kid thing we Saturday at the Marival in Nuevo Vallarta and my 3 kids all under 11 had a great time. They ask all the time to return!

Sandos caracol eco resort. We got married there in 2017 and chose it because it was so great for families of all ages. They have a petting zoo, tame monkeys around the resort you can feed bananas to right out of your hands (just don’t leave your balcony door open
), cenotes to swim & snorkel in, excellent evening shows and a water park for both big & little kids. You can also use all amenities at the sister resort which has mini golf & kite surfing lessons. Highly recommend

It's difficult to find resorts that cater to families of 5. I do believe Sandos Caracol does. They have rooms that have 2 separate areas for the parents and kids to sleep. It's a large resort and has many activities. I know many people who love the resort. Tonnes of wildlife on resort including some curious monkeys.

We stayed at the ocean Riveria paradise a few years ago and they had a whole family section complete with water park, water slides and family block with family friendly rooms. Was a beautiful newer hotel with a lot of options, very large too for lots of activities.

Sandos Caracol Eco resort
Tonya
Stayed at the Grand Sirenas and The Bahia Grand Coba with three boys, our middle is celiac. They were awesome and took us to the front of the line, had a chef come out and talk to us Both great. Never had one problem. The Coba has a whole section with daily baking that is gluten free.

We stayed at the Iberostar Parisio Mayan Riviera at Christmas. We took our son and 2 grandkids so there was 5 of us. We had adjoining rooms and it worked out great. They have a star camp for kids that is unbelievable. We never saw the kids as they wanted to be at Star Camp all the time. Lazy river, water slides, too many activities to name. And the beds were super comfortable.

Ok,
I’ve seen a lot of “best resorts in Mexico” topics— but I’d like to find the best kid friendly ones that are not 7283983 dollars because #threekids
… any suggestions?
Bonus points if they’re awesome for kids, have decent beds and also do gluten free…. I know, it’s a hard combo— the last time we stayed in an awesome kid friendly place in Cancun but the beds were hard as rocks lolllll
