If your tropical dreams involve having a tiki drink in hand at all times, Valentin Imperial Maya does not disappoint. Guests can while away the days seaside on the wide, half-mile-long Playa del Secreto or float down a meandering pool almost that long – in peace, since the resort is adults-only. Roomy suites outfitted in creamy neutrals have marble floors and a hydrotherapy tub for two. At night, a choice of eight restaurants and 11 bars keep options interesting.

Valentin imperial is a beautiful resort. All inclusive, adults only. The entertainment staff are spectacular - fun, energetic, a great team. There is a nice variety of restaurants and food presentation was beautiful. Breakfast options were endless at LeMarche. All servers were friendly and efficient. They were happy to accommodate any needs or wants. A slight drawback was the feeling of being rushed at some meals. Our rooms were spacious and well maintained. The poolside servers were plentiful and worked as teams to be sure no one was thirsty lol. The cabana staff, Carlos was terrific. I would strongly recommend the price package which allows reservations at the restaurants and a private cabana poolside or at the water. Worth every penny. The only real negative would be the temperature of the pools - very cold. We did, however, get in for classes and for the foam party. Thank you Valentin - amazing staff and surroundings. Every staff member we encountered was terrific - we loved our 10 days in paradise.

Quick mini review for the pico de gallo class. Was first class and we'll done. Hilarious host - Oscar - "Mi Amor" is a really awesome host. Education for the food was informative. Thank you for all you do, Oscar - including making every pool day a blast!

We just returned from our first stay at the Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish. The resort itself is stunning—lush with trees, tropical greenery, and beautiful natural surroundings unlike any other place we’ve stayed. It’s expansive, with winding pathways, scenic trails, and plenty of wildlife to enjoy as you explore. From the moment we arrived, we were treated like royalty. Check in was simple and smooth, and we were whisked away by golf cart directly to our room. The rooms are spacious, beautifully designed, and equipped with modern touches like digital controls, Bluetooth audio, and ceiling fans. The restaurants and food were outstanding. We never waited more than 15 minutes for a table, even when arriving at different times each night. Every meal was delicious, each restaurant offered great variety, and the service teams were consistently warm and welcoming. Our favorite spot was Mar Y Tierra on the beach—nothing beats dining with ocean views and the sound of the waves nearby. And for a special treat, don’t miss the nightly churro cart. It’s the perfect way to end the evening. The entertainment team during the day deserves major praise. They’re energetic, fun, and genuinely great at getting everyone involved. The Sunday foam party was a highlight! The evening bands, DJs, and outdoor music kept the atmosphere lively as well. The only area that felt a bit underwhelming was the evening show, which seemed similar to other Cancun resorts and could use some improvement. A special shout out to Edgar, our server on multiple nights at Mar Y Tierra. He was exceptional—kind, attentive, and always happy to see us. Overall, the Valentin Imperial Riviera Maya is a wonderful place to stay. The staff and management should be proud of what they’ve created. We’ll definitely be back soon.
