My wife and I arrived here on June 8 and stayed until June 16. Arrival and check-in was simple. We were in our room with our bags delivered to our room in less than ten minutes. Check-in was painless and the people friendly. Bellman very, very friendly and helpful in explaining some nuances about the room which we did need... More

Had a great time..... Funny that Millie9933 Fairfax were so disappointed. I saw many representatives coming to her table to check on her meal. There were so many great reviews the time they were here ...yet her time was so bad?? Weird!!! Some people can't be made happy....

First time to Cancun and a sun palace resort. The entire experince was exceptional. The destination of SP Cancun is at the very southern end of the strip and enabled us to enjoy peace and quite. But we could easily have accessed the lively sections of the strip with no problem. At sun palace cancun we found exceptional service, very... More

My Husband and I celebrated our 15th year wedding anniversary here last year. This was our first all-inclusive and I think we are spoiled! The service here is second to NONE! The people here, too many to name, spoiled us to the point that we missed them so much once we got home. Everyone went out of their way to... More

We just returned from a week long trip. Our flight was delayed and we arrived several hours later than expected. I had booked transportation through the hotel. It was very informative and helpful. I read all the information given beforehand so I was able to divert the hustlers waiting for you when you get off the plane. Transportation was waiting... More

One of the hazards of transportation is precisely being aware of delays. And this is the way it should be. To be quite honest, I hate coming into Cancun's airport because I find all this hustling denigrating. I guess every international airport has its share of offers for car rentals, transportation, hotels, what have you. But if you add the... More

Our stay at this hotel on our first day has not gone well. The room is 'tired', the room service is non existent. They do not have a service recovery process when you complain, only to say "oh we are very busy right now"...don't want to know that. We spent extra for the so-called upgrade to concierge, don't waste you... More

I am out of town but keep in touch. Needles to say I was worried about your terrible comments. Originally you were assigned concierge room 324, an excellent accomodation. You asked to be switched and were assigned 421 which is just as good, if not better.Room service tried to palliate your annoyance and you rejected our courtesy. How can we... More

If we sound like we're plants from the resort, I apologize, but our experience was in all seriousness so completely beyond our expectations that we cannot help but tell the world.

First, our stay over-all was nice, in spite of the weather. Hotel was clean. View was great. Hotel and beach were not too busy. Loved the couples only aspect.

Oh yes...did we have leaks! As per the weather channels, it rained in one day the equivalent of 12. We had just finished waterproofing the whole hotel. Bummer! And there is not much you can do the first days, until all the wáter seeps out. I am so sorry. I apologize that this led to an unsatisfactory experience. And on... More

My wife and I just returned from Sun Palace after our honeymoon. The resort is beautiful and the staff was very attentive to every detail of our stay. The entertainment was average, but that's not really why you go to a place like this - you go because it's paradise served up in an all-inclusive way, and that was fantastic.... More

In this instance I always think your honeymoon is the main reason to come to Sun Palace. It should primarily be the breath of fresh air and change of pace and venue so required after getting married, the decisions, the carrying out, in short, having vanquished one of the most significant milestones a couple undertakes. If we succeeded in settling... More
