Overview

Sprawling all-inclusive resort with plenty to do and eat
Recent guests said the pools need to be updated
A member of the Princess Resorts family, Grand Riviera Princess is a vacation destination unto itself. Stretching out along the Caribbean coast just north of Playa del Carmen, this expansive all-inclusive property features 16 swimming pools, six tennis courts, a fitness and spa complex and a slew of restaurants and bars. Couple that with suites stocked with plasma TVs, minibars and private terraces or balconies, and you'll be hard-pressed to find a reason to leave. Recent guests express positive opinions about the resort, describing the property as beautiful, the on-site cuisine as enjoyable and the customer service as exceeding expectations; however, several guests pointed out that the pools are in need of minor repairs. What's more, access to the resort's facilities, food and activities (like nonmotorized water sports, archery and kid-friendly entertainment) are all included in the nightly rate.
