"We overall really enjoyed the Catalonia Yucatan/ Rivera Maya Resort. This was our (20s couple) 3rd time in Cancun, and this was by far our favorite resort yet. The food was satisfyingly good for most meals. Everything seemed freshly prepared and the ingredients were of high quality. Other reviews mentioned outdated amenities/ rooms, but that was never an opinion we shared. The activities were plentiful and fun. The shows seemed cheesy at previous resorts, but here it was obvious that effort was...

"Despite having on a braclet to identify me as a guest, I was asked over and over if i was staying in the hotel. there is a gate that closes the property around 9pm. The security guard was slow to respond to my request to open the gate. She was surly when she did finally open it. I was again asked if I was a guest. As a solo female traveler, i was upset that I couldnt gain access in a timely fashion. There are hardly any people on the street during the week. So there was a potential for danger. I...

It was quiet and peaceful for that relaxing feel but close enough to restaurants and the south beach...
