The Riviera Maya has its share of luxury hotels, but sophisticated Grand Residences Riviera Cancun is a notable exception to the area's crowded mega resorts. The luxurious beachfront property only a half hour drive from Yucatan's busy hub is snugly protected by a nature reserve and is fronted by a private white sandy beach. The quaint fishing village of Puerto Morelos—famous for its coral reefs, dense jungle and quiet beaches—is a quick stroll away. Roomy villas and suites modeled after colonial-style haciendas are designed in hues of burnt orange with dark wood accents and colorful wall art. They face the turquoise waters of the Mexican Caribbean and include large living areas, kitchens and private terraces plus high-tech creature comforts such as complimentary wireless Internet access, iPod docks, and large LED-screen televisions.

We stayed with our family in one of the 2 bedroom villas with a pool and our experience was great. We have 3 older kids(preteen and adult) and it was enough space for everyone to be comfortable and relax. Michele and Gracia were great with all the activities and got our kids involved in things and we got to make crafts that we took home as souvenirs. We even got our kids to do karaoke thanks to them. Other than finding it a little odd to have to sign a check after every meal at an all inclusive resort it was a great experience. We can't speak to the beach much as the sarrgassm was very bad during our time, but there's nothing the resort can do about Mother nature and they were out every day trying to clean it up. My youngest still enjoyed building sand castles and we swam in the pools the whole time. Overall, we would gladly return. The resort itself is relatively small which allowed it to not be crowded or overrun at any time and it was relaxing and felt more intimate.

Great experience from start to finish. Love this resort! Food selection and quality, attention of the staff and cleanliness are all top notch.

Grand Residences was a great place for couples, but for other groups as well. A bit smaller and quieter than some, which is what we wanted. Access to the pools, beach, etc. was wonderful and the employees were fantastic. We were only there for 4 nights, so we did the AI. The rooms were very nice, clean, and had plenty of room. Will definitely plan to return.

The Grand residences is absolutely exquisite. If you really like more of the upscale and elegant vibe with beautiful views; this is a place for you. There's not a lot of nightlife and it's relatively quiet and not a lot of activities like some of the other Mexican Holiday Inn club vacation Resorts; butt if you're looking for peace, beauty, and relaxation, this is a place for you. There's not a lot of food options but they really try to come up with creative things for only having two restaurants. The concierge are amazing, the staff is amazing; the pool staff in heaven's bar is exquisite. I will go there time and time again

Overpriced. Not worth the cost. All inclusive NOT included for holiday inn vacation club owners. Pool bar closes at 430pm!
