We had a great stay at the Moon Palace Hotel. We stayed in the Nizuc section which is the center section of three. The sit ... down Mexican Resturant(Nizuc) was great! The food was very good and the service was exceptional! The breakfast buffet at the Sunrise section was better than the others. But all in all the food was good.We did not expierence the time share horror stories that I have read about. Just our first day and then once when I went to make arrangements for outside entertainment. The guest service staff were very nice with the exception of a snotty American girl.The Zip Line was great and is included in our hotel package. The company told you about other activities also available but no pressure to buy anything. We will be going back to the Moon Palace!!!!

swim with the dolphins at the Aquarium in the La Isla shopping Mall. It is not the trip that is included in some pkgs but is well worth it. Get the full deal (black bracelet) at the Aquarium. You will not be disappointed. We were six to 8 people with 2 dolphins. Included trip is about 16 people and 1 dolphin

Be treated like a Queen

Lawzy Dena Nov 19, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

If you want to be treated like a queen this is the place.It is their pleasure to serve you. This place is so clean you could ... eat in the restroom if you liked. Even the trash cans are cleaned daily. I mean scrubbed all over.I wish the US would adopt this cleaning practice. I felt more secure there then I do here in US cities. The food is fabulous and all you can eat. Everything taste real. There is no artificial flavoring. The butter and penut butter delicious. Try as many resturants as you can they are all differant. Awesome to be surrounded by happiest all the time. Can't wait to return. It was hard to return to reality. We did zip lining with two out of four of us scared of heights. A great accomplishment and the staff made you feel relaxed and safe.

Shopping tip, Short Walk

The resort provides a bus to its sister resorts in Cancun. Then you have approximately two blocks two walk to the mall. We took a cab to and from because the bus was already full. The price is okay but be prepared for the ride of your life. Apparently there is an area that has no speed limit.

Excellent honeymoon trip

Mr. Paul Nov 17, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

This was the second all inclusive trip that I have been on. Unlike my previous trip, the staff was extremely friendly and ... did not expect a tip. If you did, they were very thankful, but they were also thankful without a tip too. The location is wonderful. Only about 15 minutes from the airport, 10 minutes from zip line, and 20 minutes from snorkeling. I would highly recommend the hassle free round trip ahead of time. Our transportation picked us up from the airport as promised and were right on time for pick up to drop us back off at the airport.

Everything at the hotel was great; service and food. The only problem was it rained for 5 days straight (Hurricane Ida) ... which was beyond anyone's control but I would not recommend going in the beginning of November, possibly still rainy season.

Great getaway......beautiful grounds

J.M.L Nov 15, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Moon Palace is an above average resort with friendly, accomodating staff! The restauarants were all very good. The pools ... immaculate and so inviting. The Golf Suite was spacious and immaculate! We enjoyed wonderful spa treatments and did many affordable activities. I would recommend parasailing and aqua-twister but don't waste your time or money on the sea-explorer. The mosquitos were bad but just bring plenty of good bug spray! We will definitely vacation here again!!

Unforgettable!!!

Gerachivis Nov 10, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

We were there on our honeymoon and the only thing that we needed was more time. We took advantage of the free tours they ... offered but didnt sign up on time so we only did the Chichen-Itza, Wet'N'Wild,Xcaret, and the Zip line. Xcaret wasnt free but it's worth the $$. We REALLY would have loved to visit the other places they offered(Tulum, Coba,& Isla De Mujeres) but like I said, it was too late to sign up. The only thing bad about this is they try to get you to become a "member" and want to take up half of your day with a tour of the whole hotel and get you to join. If you're not interested then make it a point that you arent, or else you'll get a call at 8:00am asking about participating in the tour.

5 Star Hotel for a 4 Star Price!

Chris Nov 6, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

Upon checking into the hotel we were treated with a lot of attention. We were asked if we were here on honeymoon or a special ... occasion and when I said my girlfriends birthday, they sent a bottle of champagne and cake to the room that night! The waiters, waitresses and bartenders were on their game! If you ordered room service, you can bet your food would be there in less than 20 mins. The pools and grounds were beautiful, very large and spacious. Almost too big at the time we went because capacity was at about 20% and there wasnt many people around you, which i guess has its good and bad things.They said their busy months are nov-feb. Also,you couldnt swim in the ocean because its very rocky. But the pools are amazing. Id suggest staying in the Sunrise section of the resort as it is newer and more "happening" than the nizuc section of the resort. The restaurants are good, there are many of them, and you will enjoy the food, some are al la carte and some are buffet style. The oriental in the sunrise section the brazilian in the nizuc section and the italian in the golf section are among the best. Be sure to take advantage of all the free tours that your package allows you, but you must book them a day in adavance. We did the zip lineing, the tulum ruins tour, and we spent the day at Wet and Wild, which is owned by Moon Palace and swamn with the dolphins! That was fun. We also spent an hour in the beautiful Spa, which I suggest. Our Package included a $150 credit for the spa and Golf as well. I didnt golf, but if you do, the golf course is amazing. All in all, I'd go back again but would stay at Sunrise section instead. If you bring some tip money, you def. get a lot more attention, but they arent pressing you for tips. If you are looking for a nice relaxing vacation, this is your place. If you want to be more adventurous, go on some excursions and have a great time!

The sunrise section as a disco where you can drink and dance or just listen to good music....but if you want to go to the bars on the main strip of cancun, you will need to take a cab or bus about 15-20 mins.

Cancun 2009

Moon Palace Fan Oct 27, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

We had an amazing time at the Moon Palace Resort. The staff was great. They were very attentive and always greeted you with ... a smile. The food was good and room service was lightning fast. I enjoyed the breakfast buffet the most, especially the french toast. The grounds were beautiful and the beach goes on and on for miles. The pools were amazing. The resort had a secluded feeling, there weren't any other hotels for miles. The ONLY thing I did not like about the loacation was the beach. I LOVE swimming in the ocean when there are big waves. The beach is located behind the reef so the waves don't break on the shore. Also there was a bunch of seaweed that gets washed up. My all-inclusive package allowed me to visit any of the other Palace resorts in Cancun, Cozumel or Isla Mujeres so a 15 minute shuttle ride took me to another location where I could body surf all day long.

My husband and I didn't want to come back home! It was the best vacation we have ever taken! The location was perfect! The ... service was the best we have ever had.

Beautiful Get Away

Auntie Mary Oct 25, 2009

Would recommend to a friend!

I went to Moon Palace to attend the wedding of my niece. I was surprised by the beauty of the place. The staff was extremely ... friendly and helpful. We were never in need. We spent most of our free time lying on the beach or swimming in one of the many pools. I also had the time of my life, skyriding with my niece. The wedding was simply beautiful. The best trip I have ever taken. Since coming back, I have recommended the Moon Palace to my friends.

Best vacation ever!

This was our first trip to Cancun and the Moon Palace was the perfect vacation. The staff went out of their way the entire ... trip. The food was absolutely delicous and the drinks never stopped coming. There is absolutely nothing that I would change about the Moon Palace. My wife and I are already planning our next trip to Cancun and the Moon Palace is the only place to stay. I was able to golf two rounds and the wife was able to get a few massages. This was our best vacation and we look forward to many more.

Recreation/Attractions tip, In Hotel

The Snorkleing was not as expected. The days before were windy and churnned up the ocean quite a bit so the coral was covered in sand and the clouds made fish viewing difficult

--Breadman, Denver,Colorado Dec 6, 2009

Shopping tip, In Hotel

shopping in hotel stores was the same price as in town

--macdaddy, wichita falls texas Nov 30, 2009

Recreation/Attractions tip, Short Drive

swim with the dolphins at the Aquarium in the La Isla shopping Mall. It is not the trip that is included in some pkgs but is well worth it. Get the full deal (black bracelet) at the Aquarium. You will not be disappointed. We were six to 8 people with 2 dolphins. Included trip is about 16 people and 1 dolphin

--pat, Chicago, IL Nov 29, 2009

Shopping tip, Short Walk

The resort provides a bus to its sister resorts in Cancun. Then you have approximately two blocks two walk to the mall. We took a cab to and from because the bus was already full. The price is okay but be prepared for the ride of your life. Apparently there is an area that has no speed limit.

--Lawzy Dena, Poplar Bluff Missouri Nov 19, 2009

Recreation/Attractions tip, Short Drive

When booking any activity, don't forget that you can negotiate the price! We got 10% off our snorkeling adventure just for paying in cash.

--Honeymooner, Las Vegas, NV Oct 19, 2009

Shopping tip, In Hotel

If you wanna buy souveniors/jewerly check first at the gift shop because they're cheaper than negotiating and buying from elsewhere. The only downfall is that obviously they're selection isn't as broad.

--Happy Couple, Las Vegas, NV Oct 9, 2009

Entertainment tip, In Hotel

Review the entertainment schedule so you can plan dining prior to the show starting times.

--Renaldo, Fruit Cove, Florida Sep 13, 2009

Money savers tip

When going on the tours, do not buy souvenirs from the shops the tour bus brings you to because you can get it about half off from vendors at the locations you visit.

Money savers tip

set up transportation with your hotel in your vacation package. they will steel your money if you take a taxi.

--white tourest, beaumont ca Aug 18, 2009

Recreation/Attractions tip

If you want the free excursions, book as soon as you get there; otherwise they fill up fast. Tulum is a neat experience, but a lot of walking and was extremely hot. It takes about 1 1/2 on a bus too. It's worth visiting the other Palace hotels too on the free shuttle. Beach Palace is near shopping in Cancun so you can ride there free and then shop a little. Also if you want to swim in the ocean, moon palace's water is cloudy and not as clean as the Beach Palace or the water at Tulum.

--Debbie, Texas Aug 14, 2009

Money savers tip

Don't buy into the people at the airport trying to give you "great" deals on tours. Our package included the same tours the lady at the airport tried to sell to us and then tell us that our hotel package didn't include. Although the hotel does try to fight for your money back, they can't always guarantee that they can.
