Lucia, Elizabeth, Moises, Veronica, Angelo, Enrique, and Alba were all amazing! Everyone was so friendly and helpful even with my odd requests(asking for a juice to be put in a water bottle). The room was beautiful and made up every day. The food was decent considering it’s an all inclusive. Breakfast was probably the worst of the meals, but the other were great! Pool service was also good most of the time! Pools were beautiful. Would come back!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 5-Star Review Excellence Cancun – A Truly Exceptional Stay From start to finish, our experience at Excellence Cancun was nothing short of amazing. The resort is stunning, the food is fantastic, and every detail is thoughtfully designed to make your stay unforgettable. What truly set our visit apart, though, was the incredible staff who made us feel like royalty every day. 🙌 Huge thanks to Enrique Somalia Enrique went above and beyond with his exceptional service. He was warm, professional, and always anticipated our needs before we even asked. His attention to detail and friendly attitude made every interaction feel special. People like Enrique are the reason we will definitely return to Excellence Cancun! 💦 Shout-out to Cecilia at the pool Cecilia worked tirelessly to make sure everyone was comfortable and cared for. Whether it was keeping towels stocked, helping guests with a smile, or staying on top of everything during busy hours—her dedication didn’t go unnoticed. Thank you, Cecilia, for your hard work and positive energy! ⸻ If you’re considering a stay in Cancun, Excellence lives up to its name in every way. Beautiful property, impeccable service, and unforgettable people. Can’t wait to come back!

What a wonderful escape! My girls and I went away for a relaxing vacation and it was just what we were looking for. The service was excellent. Matilde served us on the beach and we felt so spoiled! Jorge was our poolside server and he went above and beyond. Always remembering what drink we wanted, served us while we were IN the pool, and had poolside chips and fresh guacamole! He did it all with a smile on his face and very friendly! Gerardo was our chef at the Hibachi table for our last night and his energy was contagious! It was a great way to end our short trip. Definitely a great escape!

Our family recently returned from the most incredible vacation at Excellence Riviera Cancun, and we’re still glowing from the experience! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with kindness and thoughtfulness- every single staff member went above and beyond to make us feel at home. The service was nothing short of world-class: attentive, warm, and genuinely caring. You can tell that everyone here truly takes pride in delivering exceptional hospitality. The resort itself is stunning, with beautifully manicured grounds, sparkling pools, and a breathtaking beach. Our rooms were spacious, immaculately clean, and luxuriously comfortable. Every detail was thoughtfully designed to ensure a relaxing and memorable stay. As a family, we had so much fun together—there was something for everyone! From relaxing by the pool to exploring activities and enjoying amazing live entertainment in the evenings, there was never a dull moment. Whether we were enjoying a casual breakfast or a fine dining dinner, every bite was a delight. We especially LOVED our excursion to the ruins with Iram! Best guide I’ve ever had- so knowledgeable and fun to learn from. Thank you to the amazing team at Excellence for making our family vacation so special—we'll cherish these memories forever!

We have been to 10+ resorts in the Cancun area and we highly recommend THIS resort! The grounds are beautiful and the restaurants - especially Spice - are delicious! But the main reason we love it here is because of Mariana and Erika! Mariana brought us drinks/snacks in the lazy river - and she was so genuinely friendly and helpful. She had great suggestions and always had a smile on her face! She made our visit here so special. Erika, in the Sports Bar, was so happy, funny, and sweet. Both Mariana and Erika made this resort amazing! Thank you both so much!
