Eclectic rhythms and a lively atmosphere embrace guests as they arrive to Live Aqua Beach Resort Cancun. This relaxing yet contemporary Adults Only, All-Inclusive luxury, a part of the Lifestyle collection of Preferred Hotels & Resorts, seems to have achieved the impossible: an upscale all-inclusive resort with a Cancun address that's low-key enough to be considered a wellness retreat. Bright, spacious rooms in shades of white and cream contrast with the turquoise of seaside infinity pools. Service is top-notch here, and ambient music from a resident DJ lends itself to a Zen mindset.

We have been vacationing in Cancun for years. This was our first trip to Live Aqua. And what a great 16 days in May it was. We loved it so much that we have already booked a second trip for November 20 – December 4, 2025. Live Aqua is located in a great location. It’s within walking distance of some really good shopping and a close drive from the airport. We walked around the surrounding area quite a bit during our stay. We stayed in Aqua Club ocean front room #5026. Our room was very nice. The view from our room was stunning. Our room was two doors down from the Aqua Club Lounge which was very convenient. Every single staff member we came in contact with during our stay was very hard working and soooooo friendly. All are wonderful assets to this resort. Our butlers, Romero & Rodrigo were very helpful in so many ways. We thoroughly enjoyed talking with Oscar Puch and Monserrat at Azar for breakfast and lunch. As well as Jose at the Hidden Garden & Azar for dinner. The pools at Live Aqua did not disappoint us. I do wish they had more lounge chairs with umbrellas around the pools & on the beach. And less cabanas that you have to pay extra for daily. I had a very relaxing and much needed massage at the resort spa. We thought the food at Live Aqua was much better than some of the other all-inclusive resorts that we have stayed at. We were however disappointed in both our meals at Carnivore. Carnivore is the only restaurant at the resort that is not included in your all-inclusive price. I doubt we will dine there on our next trip to Live Aqua.

First off, I’m not big on flying, but staying at Live Aqua made it all worth it. I don’t know what I was expecting during my stay but they truly impressed me. You have a variety of restaurants to choose from which we managed to visit a few of them and they did not disappoint. Staff was extremely friendly but the ones who truly made the stay so welcoming and fun were both Omar and Eduardo at the Aka Bar. They know their stuff, their drink recommendations were spot on. Although we only knew them for a few days they made us feel like we had been friends for a while. The room was cozy, clean, and the view was beautiful. The little things like leaving chocolate treats to leaving a celebratory champagne bottle for our anniversary truly won me over. Although I’m terrified of flying, I’m already looking forward to vacationing and staying at Live Aqua.

First time visiting Cancun and decided on booking with Live Aqua. Best decision I have ever made. The resort is absolutely beautiful, but what really sold the experience was the staff. Omar, Eduardo, and Jose at the bar were absolutely amazing. Omar is so incredibly talented and I hope he’s still there when we go back (because we’re already planning on going back!). The tacos were delish! El taquero made us a spicy salsa upon request, and it was soooo good! The line for the tacos gets long but he works fast! I forgot to get his name but he was great! We had dinner at the Hidden Garden twice because the food was that good! Benedicto made dining at the Hidden Garden a wonderful experience. The resort is nice and clean. The rooms are spacious and it seems like everyone has an ocean view based on the design of the resort. I can’t wait to go back!

Edouard in the pool area is the best! If you need assistance finding/saving pool chairs or one of the lounging beds, he is your man! Lifesaver! The food in the resort is amazing. MB Restaurant has a great filet mignon. Make sure you get all 3 courses as the portions are small. Clean, clean, clean! This resort is one of the most immaculate we have stayed at. The staff is constantly cleaning. Not a speck of dirt to be found. Staff is friendly and attentive with passing smiles and waves. You won't need for a thing. 10/10 recommen this resort for a relaxi g vacation. My only half complaint is that there is no music in the pool areas. I recommen bringing a little speaker if you are a music lover.

We really enjoyed the pools. The staff has been amazing. We loved the Cabanas and our Cabana boy Eduardo. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and got us everything we needed with a huge smile on his face and a uplifting personality.
