My husband and I LOVED our stay at Excellence Riviera Cancun. We booked an Excellence Club Junior Swim-Up Suite Pool View. Excellence Club stays come with private check-in, 30 min hydrotherapy session at the spa, upgraded menu for 24-hr room service, access to the Excellence Club lounge & restaurant, Excellence Club pools, turndown service, petit fours delivery nightly. From the moment we arrived we were treated to a luxurious, relaxing experience. We were truly taken care of in every way imaginable. We stayed around Halloween 2025. There was a live show that night and afterwards a silent party. We had a blast. All the food was good and I am a foodie. It was great no to be bogged down by the processed, salty foods of the US. The Excellence Club pool concierge, the waiters, and all the staff were phenomenal. The room was cleaned daily not just fresh towels but changing of linens, sweeping, and mopping. We were planning our next trip before we left. The bartenders could make any drink you could think of. We will be back and I miss it already.

We stayed here to celebrate our anniversary, and it truly couldn’t have been more special. From the warm welcome with champagne to the attention to detail throughout our stay, everything was exceptional. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel celebrated. our room was beautifully decorated, and every meal we had was absolutely delicious. The resort is stunning, peaceful, and spotless. The pools, the beach, and the restaurants were all amazing, but what made this trip unforgettable was the kindness and hospitality of the people working there. If you’re looking for a romantic and luxurious place to celebrate a special occasion, this is the perfect destination. Highly recommended!

I’ve been a longtime fan of the Excellence brand, visiting Finest Playa Mujeres in 2015 and Excellence Punta Cana in 2019. While Excellence Riviera Cancun still delivers a beautiful experience, I’ve noticed a few changes over the years. The drink selection has definitely gone down compared to previous stays fewer premium options than before. The food quality is also a bit inconsistent now; some dishes are great, others just okay, whereas before it was consistently excellent across the board. That said, the service remains phenomenal. Every staff member I encountered was friendly, attentive, and practically fluent in English though that did lead to being profiled a few times as someone who couldn’t speak Spanish. The resort itself is stunning, with top-notch amenities and a relaxing “lazy river” pool that winds around the spa area. Overall, it’s still a wonderful place to unwind, but I hope Excellence brings back some of the quality and variety that once made them truly stand out.
