Top Cenote Santa Cruz Hotel Reviews

Hotel Riu Tequila - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Recomendado !!"

Hotel Riu Palace Riviera Maya - All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Swim up bar closes early and they should upgrade to wristband keys."

Hotel Xcaret Arte - All Parks / All Fun Inclusive, Adults Only - All inclusive

8/10 Good

"The hotel is wonderful and everything is very well organized, but there was one thing I didn't like: there are too many people involved in resolving issues—in other words, there is a lot of bureaucracy. It seems like there is no centralized system for handling certain situations; too many people are involved in everything. Apart from that, I would return without hesitation."

Sandos Playacar All Inclusive

10/10 Excellent

"Quiero reconocer especialmente a Fernanda por la excelente atención que nos brindó. Fue muy amable, atenta y siempre estuvo dispuesta a ayudarnos incluso después de nuestra estancia. Su atención, seguimiento y disposición hicieron una gran diferencia para nosotros. Muchísimas gracias, Fernanda, por tu excelente servicio y por estar pendiente en todo momento. ¡Tu atención merece ser reconocida! ❤️"

Palmaïa-The House of AïA: All Inclusive Wellness Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Heaven an earth. This was our 3rd trip to Palmaia and it never disappoints. The only thing i wish was different is some of the food offerings. Being our 3rd time in a 5 year period, i don’t think any of the food has ever been different. Luckily, it tastes excellent."

La Hacienda Hotel, at Xcaret

8/10 Good

"After booking we were immediately contacted by the hotel wondering about our expected arrival time, and the detailed directions on how to arrive at the hotel. That was an unexpected surprise and very welcomed. When we opened the arrival gate we were amazed by the natural beauty of the grounds, trees, plants, waterfall into a refreshing pool, so awesome. Then we opened the door to our room…. Spectacular! The thought put into everything. King sized bed with beautiful bedding. Towel art. Wood, stained glass, art…everything is so beautiful. Two relaxing chairs out the door. Pool towels, coffee, water, mini fridge. Storage everywhere. Skib toured us around the property and wow, every room was as beautiful as the one before it. Internet was great. We only spent two nights there and wished we could have enjoyed it a bit more but we spent a full day at Xcaret Park which is so close and convenient to the property. We will definitely return!"

Terasu Riviera Maya Hotel & Spa Luxury Edition, en Xcaret

10/10 Excellent

"Highly recommend this place 10/10"

Stone House with Pool and large Garden, ideal for families

10/10 Excellent

"This property is a must for couples with kids and close to all the attractions. Carlos, the owner is a great host and rolls out the carpet for you. The pictures don’t do justice for this property, you have to experience it in person to enjoy its unique look and feel. The pool is great and the downstairs master bedroom was spectacular. All rooms in this house are decorated with Mexican flare. We will come back and stay in the future, for sure. Thank you Carlos for sharing your home!"
