We went to Maroma in September of 2011. It was fantastic! I didn't really appreciate how awesome it was until last week when we went to Jamaica. Maroma is hands down SO much better! Beach, accomodations, service...everything. I am a beach fanatic and was so disappointed with Jamaica - wish I had returned to Maroma! More

This was our second visit to Maroma resort and while this had been our favourite resort after our last stay,and while we also had a wonderful vacation this time, I must say that we would not return anymore. The reason is simple: the prices for food and drinks are just ridiculously high. I have no problems paying top-dollar for top-quality... More

Property was stunning with amazing villas/suites/rooms. I stayed in a suite overlooking the ocean and would sit out on my veranda every morning, reading the paper and drinking coffee that awaited me as I woke up. The people were so friendly and interactive. We ate at the Cantina one night, experiencing different types of tequila and mescal, while eating the... More

Just returned from a short trip. Overall, we had a lovely time. I'd rate overall experience 4.5 stars if I could. My thoughts: Location: Very short flight from NYC (approximately 3.5 hours direct). The ride from Cancun Airport to the resort is less than 30 minutes. The beach is as beautiful as the photos on the website - simply gorgeous.... More

I have never posted on Tripadvisor, but honestly I am so impressed by the Maroma that I simply felt compelled to. My husband and I just returned and it was one of the most incredible vacations we have ever taken. The service was impeccable, the grounds and facilities pristine, and the food delicious. It is a blissfully tranquil place for... More

I usually don't post on tripadvisor, but given my recent stay at Maroma and some of the conflicting posts I would like to set the record straight. Maroma is one of the best resorts at which I have ever stayed. I have stayed at many Four Seasons, Ritz, Mandarin Orientals, throughout the world, along with Peter Island, Bitter End, etc.... More

The beaches are beautiful and the view from my room perfect, but the resort was not flawless like other resorts in Playa and Cabo. Our ocean view room sat over the restaurant and bar, making for loud evenings and despite guarantees of wifi access, it didn't work in my room. The food was good, but not spectacular. While I would... More

Just got back from 4 nights. Will give pros and cons. Pros: the place is physically beautiful. The ocean is a perfect blue, warm, awesome to swim in. The sand is white. The beach beds are very nice and the resort is spread out so it's never crowded. We stayed in the garden room, cheapest. The room is nice and... More
