Fodor's "Next door to sister property and Spring Break mecca... although not as rowdy, it still focuses on entertainment with four daily shows held in the atrium lobby and boxing matches." Full review
Star Service "Stretched out between the Fiesta Americana Condesa and the Omni along a kilometer of beachfront, this is Cancun's Animal-House-by-the-Sea, and a year-round spring-break atmosphere prevails." Full review

Guests are treated like commodities here, and security has been known to chase down anyone leaving the hotel with a suitcase to make sure they are not skipping out on their bill.
Gayot "The beach-front property is nestled between the coastlines of two bodies of water, offering clear views of the Caribbean Sea."
Travel + Leisure "Known as an entertainment-filled vacation getaway, the Grand Oasis Cancun has the longest pool of any hotel in the city." Full review
Oyster Upper-middle-range
"Smack in the middle of Cancun’s hotel zone so those who choose to leave the all-inclusive property will find no shortage of things to do." Full review
Star Service "Similar to its Playa del Carmen siblings...this hotel within a hotel is the better of the two Cancun properties, outclassing Oasis Cancun with its superior accommodations and sense of privilege." Full review

"Built to resemble a Mayan pyramid, the all-inclusive Riu Caribe is located on the north end of Cancun Island." Full review
Lonely Planet "Riu rules the Riviera Maya – they’re everywhere. This particular Riu has 541 rooms (all with ocean views), including 60 junior suites, and a family-friendly atmosphere."
Star Service "Location aside (it is a bit prosaic), this remains a satisfactory all-inclusive operation. Situated 21 kilometers from the airport, it is one of the more isolated hotels from Cancun action. " Full review
