"Great resort overall. Service was a little slow in comparison to what we've seen elsewhere. Some of the activities that we were looking forward to were closed. They explained to us why, which is understandable, but we still felt disappointed. We would like to go back another time to really enjoy everything. The main cenote is amazing to use, especially when the temperature is hot. A lot of wildlife, but the animals are not annoying, which is awesome. Would definitely recommend 👌"

"The beaches were beautiful and everything was lovely; I absolutely loved the place. The only things I didn't really like were the bathroom—which is very small—and the refrigerator, which didn't work. Also, it would be good if they offered more spicy food, because everything was bland, and the tacos were very small and upset my stomach."

"My wife and I recently stayed at Secrets Maroma Beach Riviera Cancun for our honeymoon, and I can honestly say that the experience exceeded our expectations. From the beautiful resort and incredible beach to the food, spa, activities, and—most importantly—the people, this was a truly memorable experience. What really set this stay apart was the attention to detail and personalized service. We never felt like just another set of guests. The staff remembered our preferences, anticipated our needs, and consistently made us feel welcomed and appreciated. I want to give a special recognition to Roberto, our room concierge, who was absolutely wonderful. His attentiveness and professionalism made our stay even more comfortable, and he was always there to make sure everything was taken care of. Franco, our pool concierge, also deserves recognition. He was attentive, friendly, and made our time by the pool even more enjoyable. His service was exactly the kind of personalized hospitality that makes a vacation feel special. At Oceana, Giovany provided exceptional service. He was professional, personable, engaging, and incredibly attentive to detail. It was obvious that he genuinely enjoys what he does, and that positive energy came through in the way he treated us. The picaña and coconut shrimp were also fantastic! The pool at Secrets Maroma was absolutely incredible and quickly became one of our favorite parts of the entire stay."
