Martin at guest services, is so wonderful, and goes the extra mile to help in any way he can. Also check out the pool by Snack Bar, Katrina was a wonderful server,... More

As we have come to expect great service, great food and accommodations from Palace... More

We went here for our honeymoon and absolutely LOVED it!! Everyone was super sweet and always helpful! We had no problems whatsoever with this resort. The food was wonderful, had no problems with it! Did not get sick at all! There was always someone down by the beach who brings your beach chairs out along with a table. Always a... More

Elated about your Honeymoon experience! Getting an upset stomach, at least in Cancun is a thing of the past, thankfully. At least when it comes to food handling. The torrist industry is very conscious of the infamous "Montezuma's revenge" and every reputable hotel and resort has health and safety protocols in place. Do people get sick? Yes. Oftentimes they drink... More

Went to Sun Palace May 1st thru May 11th, had a conceirge room with an amazing view. So many things to say and please remember that everyone's taste is different-what they find important in a vacation may not be important to you.

Indoubtedly one of the best reviews. I loved your description of the usage of the jacuzzi. Precisely what it was meant for. The frosted glass in toilet and shower stalls is to give some privacy, yet let natural light in. Of course they have lights. But solid doors make it look so lugubrious... I agree that many of the not... More

I am rather baffled at your comments. Don't get me wrong, I'm not doubting them. It is only that you seem so selective. I wonder if I could ask you to elaborate a bit more on what it is that you found wrong with certain servers as will as with the breakfast buffet and the Italian restaurant. My e mail... More

Thank you for your very kind words. The bartenders at Sun Palace are a very creative bunch. What with all there is to be mixed it never ceases do amaze that they still can invent "new" concotions and apparently quite good ones. It is very pleasing that you found us to provide good service for your money. The most expensive... More
