HI Leo. Thanks for showing everyone what the Bahia Principe can offer, you did a great job! We have stayed twice at Akumal and in May/June 2024 we stayed at Coba. There is an abundance of food on offer, the weather was fantastic and the staff are very good at there jobs. Its our favourite hotel chain in Riviera Maya and we look forward to going back soon.
In our experience the rooms were very dated and a bit dirty. The bathroom sink looked the worst. Attention to detail was just lacking. I will admit the staff was nice with exception to our visit to the Tulum resort for a medical appointment for my son. He was having an asthma issue. The doctor was very nice but after the appointment we walked around to check out the resort and see the pools. We were asked to go back to the Coba as the amenities at Tulum were not for Coba guests. We were just walking around. They demanded to know our room number so someone could "educate " us on what a stay at the Coba includes. They were rather rude about it. Other than that the only thing of note was the drive to the resort from Cancun national airport was over an hour. There was plenty of food at the buffet but I’d say it was all just average. The hibachi restaurant was excellent and the Mexican restaurant had fun and friendly staff. Overall we enjoyed being in 80 degree weather for the holidays but we’d stay at a different resort next time.
@lordx7696 shuttles yes, would I stay there if is was cheaper yea, but it's not really that much cheaper than some of the surrounding resorts but maybe u have found a discount on a certain date
@lordx7696 yea that's probably ok, u could go to say riu dunamar resort or grand sunset for 1000$ more and its a big difference in room quality and food, but if ur not 2 picky about those things 4k it not bad, especially if u just wana book something to get away
Thanks Leo
Thank you! Heading there February 22 and we are excited!
Awesome, have a great time!

Yes, it was an awesome time. I would love to stay at Tulum next time! It was a great and relaxing time.

How far is the beach from the resort? I've seen comments that the resort is a several minute shuttle ride to the beach.
12 minute walk
@TheRealBatCave Are there shuttles? Would you say the resort is worth it without being on the beach?
@lordx7696 shuttles yes, would I stay there if is was cheaper yea, but it's not really that much cheaper than some of the surrounding resorts but maybe u have found a discount on a certain date
@TheRealBatCave I have been quoted $4,200 Canadian for 2 adults and a child at Cabo. For Tulum or Akumal, it''s $6,300.
