Comments from Caroline Et Yann on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

The hotel was absolutely gorgeous and beautiful. Great Mayan-inspired statues lining the paths to different locations. The rooms, same base, are very beautiful and luxurious. We had a king bed, plasma TV, marble everywhere, balconies .. and the room was always clean and well stocked mini bar. In terms of restaurants, the buffet is very good, varied food and although the service is sometimes a bit slow, it is always very friendly. Very good also la carte restaurants. There are several bars scattered throughout the site and there is always the service, even on the beach and around the pool.

Negative :

Obviously, this is the beach. In water, there are many rocks here and there, so watch out for injuries. However, it is possible to find large spaces to enjoy the waves. I also wish that the restaurants, the buffet and theater where performances are held open space, and not completely closed.

Comments from Sophie on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

Chambes and splendid decoration of the hotel. Amazing rooms, great concept.

Negative :

Lack of staff, too many people for the building (not service), lack of communication between staff, not enough chairs at the beach and pool, little space between the chairs, lack of activity and animation (at 21:00, there's nobody on the site), varied little buffet, problems with sewage in the room and shower, lots of mosquitoes biting (especially in bedrooms), unfavorably rated hotel (rather 4 *), uncleaned beach (many pieces of glass and ceramic in the sand), rocks in the sea (requiring beach shoes), discrimination between more and less affluent (four-color bracelet - four categories of services). We were very disappointed for the price we paid ...

Comments from Ginette Dutil on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

Very nice, huge, clean, luxurious. Following very beautiful. Buffet with multiple choices. Lots of marble. Fine evening shows. Internet Café yet possible and free. We did a very nice trip. We do not hesitate to recommend it. Beautiful pools with integrated whirlpool. There are some suites with terrace adjacent to a pool, if you can ask for it, this is a must.

Negative :

An unpleasant odor in the shower, we have corrected by putting a wet towel over the drain and it no longer felt. I wish more Mexican music, we'd rather right to classical music in all common areas. Buffet very good but never hot, always warm. For the beach, swim hard, it is mandatory to have beach shoes. Many algae. As this is new, the vegetation is not yet mature, but it promises for the future. Major inconvenience, tourists going to put their towels early in the morning on the sun and often arrive after lunch. As places are limited in the shade, it is frustrating for those who want to enjoy the beach and pools.

Comments from stephaniedufour on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

Extensive site, which offers activities for people of all ages. THE abundant vegetation will be superb when it is already mature but still beautiful. Great site everyone finds it place. Shows very interesting! Excellent a la carte restaurants. Beautiful beach in spite of the corals in the sea .. but that is typical of Mayan Riviera! Try the cocktails miami vice!

Negative :

Improvement to provide the level of service to buffets (for long-service drinks and to service the empty plates). Food really excellent but repetitive buffets. Provide water shoes for swimming to the sea but it does not take away the beauty of the beach!

Comments from Rox Et Marc Maisonneuve on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

We carry several travel, hotel is very clean, we were staying in a villa, so 24-hour service, ext5raordinaire pool and deprive bed near the pool ideal for quieter moments, gym small but ok, very good food, good service dinner a la carte dinner we could book the same time several parcontre will present a little before 9:00 am is ideal .. evening music in the south and great coffee at the bar, very good drink, good animation only has a swimming pool against others are more relaxed. several Chaisse available, evening spectacle in great especially micheal jackson. good support from Air Transat for advice.

Negative :

lack of bottled water, a little rock in the sea of ??incoming shoe therefore focus range. service at the reception is very very slow and it takes so good to c is the mexican, over the site is huge about 1 km to go to the beach so we must prepare to walk a lot and bring a bag with all our belongings to avoid returning to the beach. we're going to Playa del Carmen at the end of day because it was very hot out very pleasant memories for a hotel as very dear, souvernir photos are also $ 15 U.S. and it does not therefore negotiated price in our opinion. as the site is great difficulty to get together quebecois but hey you can even when partying ......

Comments from liselou on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

Everything was completely perfect. The food was excellent as far as buffets a la carte restaurant. No mosquitoes or seen in the room or in the complex. No problem for the beach. I bathed every day without beach shoes and there is really no problem. It must be remembered that this is fine because by taking steps to one side or the other of the beach, no other hotel near the Princess or you can swim. The rooms are very spacious and very clean. Huge complex so if you do not want to walk, go somewhere else. It took an advantage this year because the price will never be the same next year. Excellent choice and beautiful marble everywhere. We loved it.

Negative :

adjustments will be made at the reservations of a la carte restaurants and check-in but nothing major.

Comments from Michel Pagé on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

Very nice hotel, nice room, good service, good weather and food in the buffet is good. There is marble everywhere (Caution slippery in places). This is a place to see. I recommend this package but not at any price.

Negative :

There are 800 meters between the hall and enter the beach. We walk a lot (5-6 KM per day) and there is no shuttle. The beach is nice and clean but there are rocks or coral in the sea water (bring water shoes). It requires long pants for a la carte restaurants but not for buffets. The a la carte restaurants are good except the barbecue restaurant. The trip from the airport and the hotel website is a one-hour because we stop in a few hotels in the world to land. The excurtions are expensive in relation to what we Offet is on these occasions (Sky's the Limit for we are on vacation!).

Comments from Marie-Josée on Grand Riviera Princess :

Positive :

Beautiful spacious, very clean, the floors reluisent.Le staff super friendly and smiling. Pools in abundance, and many lobbyists for a drink in the evening. The buffet is very good and quite varied and for a la carte restaurants are entitled to 3 for 1 week, we took the Vaqueria which is the grill and it was not appreciated at all, Italian and very good not the worst Mexican. In terms of rooms, super nice rooms, comfortable beds and beautiful bathrooms. As for the beach, nice beach and lots of palapas.

Negative :

To enter the water it takes shoes plunged, there are lots of rocks, very unpleasant. The hotel website is very nice but very big, you have to walk a lot and there was no shuttle train to take us.
