Top Hotels Near Gaviota Azul Beach in Cancun from NZ$159

"Great hotel, great service, excellent price! The staff are so kind and accommodating! Spent my 37th birthday with some friends and had a blast!! "

"Ocean was visible from our balcony which was the only good thing about the room. Bed was hard and horrible to sleep on. Rooms need completely remodeled. Door and walls thin and can hear everything in hallways. Doors slam shut consistently. Food was horrible and was very tired of buffet after having to eat there for breakfast and lunch every day. Restaurants for dinner had not great food and was very disappointing. Service was great and the grounds and pools were very clean. Beach front was great and loved the ocean front. Was not aware that this would be a party resort and there was lots of kids there for spring break. Yelling and partying going on all hours of the night. If you want a relaxing, quiet, vacation with a nice room to enjoy and good food, this is not the resort for you. "

"The room looked over the beach. Very nice view of the ocean. Nice large king bed, very comfortable. Lots of hot water in the shower. Did not deal with the hot tub. Room was large and comfortable. Staff was sufficient. "

"One elevator didn't work and the wait time to go up or down was long. "

"Loved it all"

"DO NOT STAY HERE. I can’t stress this enough. If you value luxury and cleanliness, this is not the place for you. Check-in is extremely long, even with online pre-check-in. You can’t access your room until 3 PM, and then you have to check in again to get your key—a completely redundant process. When we finally got to the room, the key didn’t work, forcing another trip to the desk. Staff immediately push a sales rep on you, pressuring you to attend a “breakfast” that’s really a 90-minute sales seminar with coupons and discounts you won’t need or use. The rooms are dirty, with showers and sinks smelling like sewage. Beds and towels also smelled bad, and our group experienced the same issues. Electricity kept going out, requiring a staff member to reset a breaker in the hallway multiple times. There’s no bottled water—only refillable glasses in hallway stations (I didn’t trust this)—and bars don’t provide straws, making drinks like piña coladas difficult to enjoy. Food was so bad that I barely ate my entire trip, though fresh omelets at breakfast were decent. Most staff were rude and unhelpful. The only positives are the location, pool parties, and balcony views, but they don’t make up for the disorganized, dirty, and frustrating experience. Avoid this resort. Spend the few extra dollars on a better resort! "
