My husband and two children, then aged 8 and 5 went to the Coba in March 2011. We hadn't been to Mexico before although we do tend to go long haul. The flight and private transfer were fine. We had booked through a web company called mexicocollection, which was great value. The Coba is a very good but not perfect... More

This review is coming a little late, as we stayed at the end of January. Yet, here it is. There are three GBP hotels combined (Acumal, Tulum and Coba) and you can use all no matter where you stay. Here is the brief account of our stay in Coba. Reception: Arrived at night, quickly registered, did not wait for bell... More

I never listened to anyone when the told me to use extra caution in Mexico, and I wish I had to after the worst vacation I had in my entire life! Coba is a 5 star hotel... more like 5 thumbs down. The hotel looked nice, until anyone served you. Firstly the reception staff were very rude, and the management... More

We arrived Apri 19th at around 12pm. There was a group of 6 of us (3 couples). Our rooms weren't ready, but the friendly staff at reception got us checked in and gave us our bracelets. They took our luggage and said they'd bring it to our room for us when it was ready (thank goodness!). We immediately beelined for... More

My husband and I had never been to an all inclusive resort before and by the time we left this resort we were wondering why we ever vacationed any other way. The food was very good with lots of selection at the buffet. My husband enjoys his vino and was pleasantly surprised to find that he could wander over to... More

This is my first trip (many more to come) down to Mexico (April 19th 2012-April 26th, 2012. But honestly, I never had a problem with the resort, the people, the food, the entertainment (Nightly). I thought everything and everyone was awesome... Especially Jesus, and Maggi at the Kukulcan Buffet, we tipped them well. :) Jesus and the other dude, at... More
