Luxe romantic beachfront resort with in-room hot tubs
The Sun Palace in Cancun, Mexico, is a beach-front hotel designed exclusively for couples. The hotel has an indoor pool and three outdoor infinity pools that appear as though they are spilling into the ocean. Friendly customer service and a host of modern amenities are available.

Luxury Retreat Seeking Couple
Perfect Couples Escape
The Sun Palace was the perfect place to get away from everything and just spend time together. We loved the fact that the beach, pools, and hotel were not over-crowded with families, and that we could enjoy the spectacular views and luxurious hotel amenities without the frenetic sense of children running around. Our suite was modern and sleek, with many elegant touches and tasteful decor. We used our jacuzzi, the pools, and the beach without worry, always were able to obtain ample towels, drinks, and beach chairs, and had the ability to go between every facility and our suite conveniently. The hotel credits and honeymoon package allowed for us to go on many excursions (zip line, swim with the dolphins), and purchase many great gifts. We also took advantage of the spa and enjoyed a week of absolute pampering. The staff was courteous and responded promptly to all of our requests. It was wonderful to be able to eat and drink as much as we wanted, whenever we wanted. The only aspects that might be considered negative are that the food catered to the masses and we had to make special requests to the chefs to add more spice and flavor to our dishes, and the restaurant desserts were not really to our liking (though the room service cheesecake and chocolate cake were wonderful!). We ordered room service daily and visited all of the restaurants. We had plenty of time to do everything we wanted, including relaxing at the resort and tour and shop downtown (the bus stop was right outside the hotel). Although it was an escape, we still were able to call the U.S. (for free) and use the internet to check in with work as needed. This was by far our best vacation yet and we are already looking forward to visiting again, along with our friends. The Sun Palace was a safe, luxurious, perfect-sized resort that allowed for a completely worry-free and truly relaxing vacation.

Use the bus over taxis; book all of your excursions right away and try to use the same company so as to get more deals; plan your outings so that you can eat free meals at all of the Palace resorts througout Cancun, Isla Mujeres,etc. and not worry about spending money on food if you leave the resort; and pack free drinks (water bottles)and/or boxed meals from the Palace for your excursions.

Great Relaxing Resort
Food was great, a huge selection and plenty of fresh fruit! The staff was very friendly and overall the resort was one of the nicer all-inclusives we've been to. The buffets had quality food and there were a lot of "on the grille" options too. One of the best steaks was the fillet at the authentic Mexican restaurant at the resort! Very relaxing, we will return.

Sun Palace seems to run "resort credit" promotions. If you can get some resort credit, it is good for booking many things and can be used towards massages, excursions, and a variety of other things.

Sun Palace
This was our second trip to Sun Palace and we had a wonderful time. We did a few things different than last year and had a blast. Last year we didn't eat at the Thai Lounge but I talked my wife into going and she loved it. The breeze from the ocean on the outdoor dining area of the Thai Lounge was wonderful. My wife tried sushi for the first time and she loved it. Also, this year we hung out at the activities pool and beach area. We met a lot of nice couples and had fun hanging out drinking with them all day. The food over at the snack bar was also very good. We also learned that you could order food out on the beach, which we did. My wife loved being able to get grilled fish and vegetables on the beach without having to get up and go inside. We will be back again next year. Oh, we went by the Moon Palace and though it may be a wonderful resort, we thought it was way too crowded and went back to the Sun Palace instead of hanging out at the Moon Palace for the day.

The jungle tour, swimming with dolphins, and zipline are tours we have done and would recommend. Also, the spa is very nice as we have been both times that we've stayed at the Sun Palace. We did the couples' massage both times and loved it.

Amazing!!! We felt like Royalty!
Everything was perfect...from the Spa to the beach; the food and entertainment. We are hard-working middle class and find it hard to spend the kind of money we did for this resort; and we have never taken time to go on a vacation like this - we paid more than we had planned on because of a recommendation from our sister-in-law's sister, but when it was all said and done, my wife and I agreed that we would have paid more and still felt justified. While there we visited four other Place Resorts (and used their facilities because of our Sun Palace affiliation - Sun Palace is by far our favorite! We will likely never go on another vacation again if it's not 'All-inclusive!" (Because I'm a penny-pincher and with the All-inclusive I didn't have to count cost - even if I had Filet Migon and shrimp every night. We LOVED it and would recommend this Resort to ANYONE!!

5th visit to Cancun
This was our 5th trip to Cancun so we knew what to expect and what things were important to us. Simply, we are beach people. The pools and all the extras (tours, massages and upgrades) are fine, but we don't place a high value on them. Chair/umbrella availability and beach service were the best we've ever had in Cancun. Of the five places we've stayed in Cancun (Sun Palace, Cancun Palace, Moon Palace, RIU Caribe and Dreams) Sun Palace has jumped to the top of our list!

The swim with the dolphins attraction was great and a good price when used with the resort credit. HOWEVER the pictures they sell there are way overpriced. A 3 picture package on CD, not even prints, is $69.00 USD. Not a great value on memories.

Excellent hotel
The overall experience is pretty impressive. The hotel room is super clean. All staff are very nice. They came to clean the room more than once a day. They change the towels, and usually leave some candies after cleaning. Room service is super fast. This resort is not very big, it doesn't take time to walk from one place to the other. I actually like it that way! If you want, take the shuttle bus to go to moon palace for a visit. It's a huge resort! Can't complain about the restaurants. Foods are pretty decent. Don't go to the flea market in downtown, it's too expensive. Check out the gift shop first if you are looking for souvenir. It's cheaper there. Plan ahead if you wanna use your $1500 for the limo!
