I highly recommend the Maya Riviera area, it is so beautiful over there. I went the BlueBay Grand Esmeralda, and I liked it, except don't buy things from the shops in the resort, except for the photos. If you are an average Joe and don't expect the moon, it is enjoyable. I tipped a few bucks here and there and got excellent service. Lots of cool places to go see within the Playa Del Carmen area as well, cenotes, parks, ruins, etc.

If you are beach people go to the cancan side, if you are pool people go Cabo side
Joel
Charity lol they have pools at the all inclusives on the Maya Riviera side too lol. Plus it's not desert like on Maya Riviera side.
Charity
Obviously!!!! Just saying if you prefer the beach and water go to the other side, very limited swimming in the ocean on this side
Colleen
Agreed and totally different experience in the ocean
Jeannett
Disagree. I know many perfect beaches on the pacific coast.
Valerie
The Maya Riviera. Been to both sides. There’s nothing like the colour of the water on the Maya side. Leaving again for Playa del Carmen in November. Can’t wait!
Joel
Valerie I have to say I am a bit jealous lol. Hope you have fun.
Valerie
Joel Thanks!
Chris
Riviera Maya hands down.. Amazing water, snorkelling and things to do
Susan
Riviera Maya for sure. We have stayed at the Barcelo hotels (Maya Beach and Colonial) -- beautiful beach and amazing pools!
Heather
Agreed barcelo resorts are amazing.
Susan
Heather Any of them would be great choice!
Heather
I've been to both sides and if you're set on all inclusive I'd go to the Mayan Riviera side because the ocean is much nicer.
I like Puerto Vallarta for non resort travel and being able to try some real authentic Mexican food and you can do day trips to Sayulita and Bucieras.
If you go to Mayan Riviera make sure you check out Xel Ha it's an amazing park with lagoons and a tubing river my favourite Mexico experience ever.
Cher
been to all three. Like the comment above, Sayulita and Puerto Vallarta feel like a more travel authentic experience. But if you’re purely looking for relaxation, the Mayan can’t be beat. We got married at Paradisus La Esmeralda with 40 guests in attendance, and it was an awesome resort with great food.
Sandi
Puerto Vallarta has a more authentic feel. Sierra Madre mountains, waterfalls, humback whales etc. I lived in Mexico for 10 years. LOVE Puerto Vallarta over Maya or Los Cabos.
Bev
i am also looking but for an all inclusive family vacation in march .... 6 adults, 1 - 6 year old and twins under 1. any suggestions on sites that can accomodate this amount of people? thank you
Gurleen
I highly recommend Puerto Vallarta. It was only my second time in Mexico. First time I stayed at the moon palace resort in Cancun. Resort was way too big and food was very bland. Just stayed at club Marival resort in P.V and it was a great family resort. Decent food, amazing beach and pools. and day trips to Bucerias and Sayulita can be made easily. Vallarta adventures is not too far from there where you can see dolphins.
Joel
Gurleen Atwal Cancun is too busy. You should've gone down south a bit more.
SherryPh
How far south? We are look looking for somewhere to go for 10 days after one week at the Iberostar Quetzal.
Caren
Gurleen did u bus or take cabs to bucerias and sayulita we r staying in between Puerto Vallarta and there once time here and trying to figure out how to get around if we want to see thanks
Jade
Great hotel..only 20 mins from Playa Del Carmen.
