Guest reviews for Grand Velas Riviera Maya - All Inclusive

Everyone (1)
5 out of 5
The hotel is great, the staff is very well trained and competent. Unfortunately we could not enjoy the sea because of the weather, but the beach was not so good anyway as we expected: too many rocks... The Spa is nice but extremely overpriced.The food was very good except an Asian restaurant.
