Pros

A full-service resort emphasizing the restorative powers of water with inviting pools, a relaxing beach and plenty of family-friendly options, including an ample kids’ zone and easy access to a coral reef.
Few views can feel more relaxing than a tropical pool complex transitioning seamlessly into a placid beachfront. Grand Fiesta Americana Coral Beach Cancún’s shore-hugging layout makes it easy to go from sand to deck and back again. There’s also a swim-up bar in the pool. All 602 rooms are updated, offer free WiFi and large screen TVs, and have breathtaking views of the ocean. The three restaurants on property offer a delicious variety of cuisines—French, Mexican and seafood—while the lobby bar is the perfect place to enjoy a margarita. The unique spa is beautifully designed and boasts the only “10-step hydrotherapy” program in the area. Just steps away from the hotel is a ferry will take you to the Isla de Mujeres in a short half-hour trip—a true cultural gem just off the coast. There’s also a kids’ club with supervised activities for parents looking to keep the young ones happy.
The adjacent coral reef is one of the largest in the world and can be viewed either via dive tours or a glass-bottomed boat ride. There’s very easy access to the luxury shopping areas, with 12 world-class malls offering everything from global brands to local crafts.
The hotel is in walking distance of many of the clubs that make the Cancún nightlife famous. Those looking to explore the local cenotes—crystal-clear freshwater pools in the nearby jungle—can easily arrange an excursion. And, of course, there’s plenty of access to the local Mayan ruins, as well as the renowned Museo Maya de Cancún, which displays historical and cultural artifacts.
